Coopetition
From #openttdcoop wiki
Draft for the Coopetition
Mucht's Idea
The term Coopetition stands for the idea of bringing a competitional challenge into our cooperative gameplay.
The basic idea:
- Two players team up and play versus another team.
- A dedicated server will be set up for this challenge - besides the 4 players, only visitors are allowed
- The game will begin at a previousely settled date/time.
- The playing time is limited to 2 hours.
- Each team may use a voicecom like Ventrilo or Skype to improve its communication.
- A random map will be played.
- In the end, the train income matters.
The idea for the Coopetition-League:
- If there are 4 teams, a league can start.
- Each team plays against each other as mentioned above - there will be 6 games then.
- In the end of each game, a "win-ratio" will be calculated:
<math> \frac{MY_TRAIN_INCOME}{OTHER_TRAIN_INCOME} </math> As an example: your income was 100.000, the other's 80.000 - so you won the game. Your "win-ratio" is 1.25, the other's ratio is 0.8.
- For the league table, these ratios will added up or multiplied (with adding up the league could get a bit closer)
