Need help with modifying masternodes for reasons (Bounty)

[MickGhee]

Hi,

I have been trying to simplify the pivx see-saw (I was going to use a switch nested in a for) when I realized something that could be a much better use of the variables.  Unfortunately, I have to add a property to the Masternode.cpp masternodes object and constructor
Found that but now my concern is that my modifications will create problems.  What I am looking for is how the Master node checks or determines the the amount of coins held as collateral. I need to get it to check for the new variable and apply it to the collateral address. So that as it "modifies",  the existing nodes are not disqualified due to the rules changing. I have some coin to offer ( remember, I am just a student developer with more dreams than Support) but if you can help me, I am sure that we can reach an agreement.

Help me, I am so close and it is so frustrating

Help. . . I have been over it all again and I think that cpubkey() may be the variable but now I must search for every instance and see if I can find something that is checking the value returned. It would be much easier if I could find documentation or just have a chat with someone else.
This is teaching me a valuable lesson,  no one will help me, ever. No one is interested in seeing how we can juice the system and create more organic economics that are elastic enough to facilitate rapid growth periods but also use clever systems to minimize inflation.

I would think that the idea alone is interesting enough that other nerds would at least be curious.
