I just wanted to know what you racer think of this Ranking system...
This is not like a scoring system, diff is:
Scoring system goes allways > then last score , so more you race more you get a high score, what ever your good or not.
Ranking system recompute it self from the new standard fixed by all driver and by the current ranked player, so more your good , more your ranked , more your bad less your ranked, this is again Your Self and Global from ALL server into the last year.
I show you here the result of some ranked player... so you can tell me if you think i gave too much for a rank or too less, kind(fastest,average,stability,win).
P.S. this is total rank for each Car/Track by player.
I have implemented ELO ranking system for one of my servers(LFS Norge NM). Its a rallyx server. The ELO system works fine.. but it have some problems. E.g. when you get rammed out of the race you loose points and its not your bad driveing that is the reason. And in a grid with many players you earn more points that in a grid with less players. But in the looong run the best drivers get best ranking. I am happy with the ELO system on my server.
ho! wow! you did a very great implementation of ELO into the grid system bravo! i was about to make it like that! but after reflection.
ELO is normaly a 1 vs 1 , so i based my system on 4 data all becoming 1 Vs BEST after a lot of Filter and a Lot of pain
Have a question for you about you implementation:
what is the time interval she was based, i mean most ELO implementation are recalculated from a time interval , mine is 1 year.
I need recompute , since i use some global value for constant , so i recompute at all 7days, take about 12 hours(PentiumD960).
i will love to try your ELO(race grid) formula if you wanna share.
Me i won't share public... since i prefer keep some formula hidden from driver just a cool faq should be enought
It seems to be ok, I checked the ranking, it's hard to judge now, i guess with more race played we will be able to see the improvement curve. I think I should test it on ur server
i added about 150 000 ranked player to the DB the only think missing, if you have not played on aleajecta is Position calculation vs everyone .
I JUST added this "Forcemagic" and i remember seing your name pass into the log, mean you did play on Aleajecta, so you will see a position again all other.
I output too some Detail ... so you can see what needed to correct to have a better rank, i will let this flooding output run for couple week , so we have better idea of the rank result vs real
I am creating the GUI and search feature tomorrow!
ho i created the Top10 cached for each car/track, for moment can only be access from console (top10,rank) when the GUI is done, ingame driver will have access too.
