Is compensation/fine amount correct? #22

Closed MarkL1961 closed 10 years ago

I am trying to understand how you have set this up. Initial fax is number of victims x $2000

How is cover up worked out as some amounts I have paid or received have not made much sense?

i.e. had eight victims and managed to cover it up and got less compensation than I did for one victim. $2930 received, which is little more than $400 per victim.

The fail fine is per person like you say. For the compensation the configuration gives a high and low value, I just take a random between the two so the amount infected is not a factor at all.

MarkL1961 commented 10 years ago

Have you capped the fine? Line 349 in epidemic looks like you have, but that could be me not understanding it. In the sam files the fine range is 1000 - 3000 depending on difficulty. I think the max mentioned there refers to if you were to edit the sam file, not the maximum fine Got this from you tube. a

Looked for compensation faxes and they are all on the low side. I have memories of getting more compensation in TH, but I suspect I used to edit the sam files to do that :)

Oh ok I assumed it was the max amount. I'll uncap the initial fine but i'm happy having the compensation a random amount between the two given values. You think that's ok?

MarkL1961 commented 10 years ago

Agreed, I think that is all that is needed. With regard to the compensation seeming on the low side, how you have it is how I read the files too.

Right will make this change this evening. Been unexpectedly busy again at work but will find time to fix all these things!

sadger commented 10 years ago

The fine is unbounded now and should work as expected when you get a moment to test this.

I forgot to pull before I pushed so there is an extra merge in the commits, it's not a big issue hopefully as I will be copying changes over to the main branch anyway.
