The help function explains the computed-score priority in detail (just
look it up in the index).
The function is great when you have a nested tree of projects and tasks
or tasks with subtasks, because it considers relative importance. I.e.
if a subtask of project A has max importance, and a subtask of project B
has less importance, that subtask may still appear higher in the todo
list if project A itself has lower importance than project B. This makes
a lot of sense if you think about it.
The function can also factor due date and start date in. However, there
is a major issue with how this is done, as I mentioned here:

If this would be fixed, the function would be a lot more useful.

I must say I am getting some rather surprising result from Computed
Score...
If I go Tools > Options > "Current MLO data file" > "To-do ordering
options" >
and if I drag all three bars ("Due date", "Start data", "weekly goal")
fully to the left...
and if I untick "Use Increased priority for overdue tasks"
will (in theory at least) that just use Importance and Urgency?

I love MLO, but I've never followed computed score. Meaning I've
never decided to do the item at the top of the list which the
computed score algorithm suggested. I would much rather have the
hierarchical sorting check box back. That was more logical for me.
I'd much rather just have priority (high, medium, low), and starred
as my choices for "manipulating" tasks, along with the "goals"
options and leave it at that. For me computed score is something I
have to always think about, but only because I don't want it to
affect my task list.
In reality I find that things move much too fast to do the front
end work that computed score requires.
I wonder how many people really understand and are using computed
score?
I wonder if another version of MLO without computed score, or
perhaps a setting to disable it would be a good idea?
Cheers.
