how to calculate the appr numbers of mobs

Mon-X.wix (where X= 1-16)

When mon file has a single number it is really 01 instead of 1 the 0 is just not displayed.

so 1 is a combination of 0 and 1
and 34 is a combination of 3 and 4
And 117 is a combination of 11 and 7

The way to calculate the Appr value is Mon-'X'.wix 'Y'

For this example take the WhiteHorse Appr value 117 which breaks down to 11(Part A) & 7(Part B)

X = Part A + 1 and Y = (Part B * 1000) + 1

So for our WhiteHorse

Part A = 11
Part B = 7

So X = 11 + 1 = 12
and Y = (7 * 1000) + 1 = 7001

So if you know mob picture is in Mon-12.wil image number 7001 (White horse) you can do the reverse to work out the appr number

Appr Value = A & B

(X= 12 from Mon-12.wil)
Part A = 12 - 1 = 11
Part B = (7001 - 1) / 1000 = 7

So we join the two parts to get 117
so the Appr number in the Database is 117

Another example Say Using Mon-13.wil image number 6001 (Cobra)

Appr Value = A & B

(X= 13 from Mon-13.wil)
Part A = 13 - 1 = 12
Part B = (6001 - 1) / 1000 = 6

So we join the two parts to get 126
so the Appr number in the Database is 126
