Hi,

Hello, thanks for writing in. The Performance column is the performance parameter you have optimized on. You will notice the "Optimize On" setting in the right side panel.

Kind regards,

Hi Chris,

Please see my attachment. Your answer doesn't help me understand what the "Performance" values mean. Please explain. According to your answer "The Performance column is the performance parameter you have optimized on.", You're telling me "[a value of 33.01] is the performance parameter you have optimized on." That doesn't make sense. My performance parameter on this example is Max. strength. An array of values from 15.47 to 33.01 as shown in the list iin the screenshot is not == My performance parameter.

What do the values represent?

Hi David, the performance column is the output of the Optimization Fitness script that you select in the "Optimize on" setting. Each of these selections has an associated script under the NinjaScript Editor>Optimization Fitness folder. The values each of these return is different and they are all defined here:
