First Sketch by Mucht

Imagine two Companies:

A: 5.500.000 Train Income, 45 trains with positive income, 5 trains with negative income.

B: 4.000.000 Train Income, 35 trains with positive income, 5 trains with negative income.

The ratio is caculated as: ([Train Income] - [# trains with pos.income]*20.000 - [#trains with neg.income]*40.000) / ( ( [income comp. A] + [income comp. B] ) / 2 )

For our example:

Company A would have a ratio of 92.63%

Company B would have a ratio of 65.26%

- it is ecouraged to build long routes. Short goods-stealing-routes are not encouraged since you need to earn at least 20.000 with each train, otherwise a train doesn't pay.

- each team has to watch its trains - a train with no income is aweful for the ratio

- the global income (of both companies) is the norming factor.
