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 calculated 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%

Notes:

• It is encouraged 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 awful for the ratio.
• The global income (of both companies) is the norming factor.
