# Normally, a huge number of settings are saved in the save game. This is intended

# to allow a player to continue playing the "same style of game" as before.

#

# However, this is often highly undesirable.

#

# Sometimes we want to load an old saved game with new settings in the program directory.

# (For instance, if the defaults have changed in a new version.)

# To do this, set progdir_overrides_savegame_settings to 1 (or any number but 0).

#

# Frequently we want to load an old saved game with an updated pakset and get the new pakset rules.

# To do this, set pak_overides_savegame_settings to 1 (or any number but 0).

#

# Very frequently we want to load an old saved game with custom local rules.

# To do this, wet userdir_overrides_pak_settings ot 1 (or any number but 0).

#

# (Neither of these have any effect if you are a client, rather than a server, in a network game.)

# (Also, there is no way to override certain settings which are not loaded from simuconf.tab.)

#

# Please note that pak_overrides_savegame_settings (but not the other options)

# will also cause electricity.tab, privatecar.tab, speedbonus.tab, and cityrules.tab to be

# reread, and to override any versions in the saved game. Due to historical anomalies in the

#################################### Revenue settings ##################################

#

# Settings for calibrating the revenue system

#

# These settings calibrate the way in which revenue is calculated in the game. Changing

# them might make the game easier or harder, or, if they are changed in odd ways, make it

# behave eratically. Make sure to know what you are doing before changing these values.

# These settings calibrate the speed bonus. Note that, with Simutrans-Experimental, unlike

# Simutrans-Standard, the speed bonus is based on the convoy or line's *average* speed, not

# the convoy's maximum speed.

#

# All distances in these settings are measured in kilometres and calibrated using the

# meters_per_tile setting.

#

# min_bonus_max_distance is the distance below which the speed bonus (or penalty) does not

# apply. Below this distance, goods pay the same no matter what the average speed.

#

# median_bonus_distance is the distance at which 100% of the speed bonus/penalty applies.

# At anything between min_bonus_max_distance and median_bonus_distance, a scaled proportion

# of the speed bonus applies. For example, if the min_bonus_max_distance was 10, and the

# median_bonus_distance was 110, then, for a journey of 50 tiles, 50% of the speed bonus or

# penalty would apply. median_bonus_distance is optional: if it is not specified, or set to

# 0, it will be calculated as the mid point between min_bonus_max_distance and

# max_bonus_min_distance.

#

# max_bonus_min_distance is the distance above which the rate of the speed bonus increases

# no further. In other words, the rate of the speed bonus (or penalty) keeps increasing with

# the distance, until it reaches the max_bonus_min_distance, after which it remains steady.

#

# max_bonus_multiplier_percent is the percentage of the speed bonus that applies at or above

# the distance specified in max_bonus_min_distance. So, if the speed bonus rating was 10%, the

# distance exceeded the max_bonus_min_distance value, and the max_bonus_multiplier_percent was

# set to 200, the speed bonus rating would effectively be 20% for that journey.

# Between the median_bonus_distance and the max_bonus_min_distance, a scaled proportion applies.

# So, if, for example, the median_bonus_distance was 100, the max_bonus_min_distance was 1,100

# the actual distance 500, and the max_bonus_multiplier_percent 200, the speed bonus rating

# would be increased by half of the multiplier, or 150%.

# These next settings affect the interaction between comfort and revenue in Simutrans. Comfort only

# affects passenger traffic, for obvious reasons. Passengers have a certain level of comfort that

# they will tolerate for certain distances. All comfort ratings are in the range of between 0 and

# 255. At the tolerable level, the revnue is unaffected. At above the tolerable level, a luxury

# bonus is applied. At below the tolerable level, a discomfort penalty is applied. The values can

# be set to anything, but, to reflect real life, it is suggested that the discomfort penalty is

# significantly higher than the luxury bonus.

#

# tolerable_comfort_short is the tolerable comfort rating of a vehicle (0 - 255) for a journey of no

# more than tolerable_comfort_short_minutes.

#

# tolerable_comfort_median_short is the tolerable comfort rating of a vehicle for a journey of no more

# than tolerable_comfort_median_short minutes.

#

# tolerable_comfort_median_median is the tolerable comfort rating of a vehicle for a journey of no more

# than tolerable_comfort_median_median minutes.

#

# tolerable_comfort_median_long is the tolerable comfort rating of a vehicle for a journey of no more

# than tolerable_comfort_median_long minutes.

#

# tolerable_comfort_long is the tolerable comfort rating of a vehicle for a journey of at least

# tolerable_comfort_long minutes.

#

# For any journeys of a time between any of the values, a scaled proportion is taken.

#

# Note that (versions 7.2 onwards), the impact of comfort on revenue decreases with journey time.

# It is at its maximum level down to tolerable_comfort_median_long_minutes, after which it gradually

# reduces to 20% of its maximum at tolerable_comfort_short_minutes, and does not decrease further

# thereafter.

# that affects the luxury bonus. Anything beyond that, and further added luxury makes no difference to the

# revenue.

#

# max_luxury_bonus_percent is the percentage increase in revenue from the maximum level of luxury specified in

# max_luxury_bonus_differential. So, if the tolerable comfort level for any given travelling time was 100, the

# max_luxury_bonus_differential 50, and the max_luxury_bonus_percent 50, then the revenue would increase up to

# 50% beyond the normal revenue for additional comfort up to 150, but would not increase further with any increase

# in comfort beyond 150.

# These settings control the revenue that can be earned from catering and travelling post offices. Note that catering

# vehicles on a convoy also increase the comfort by a small amount, which has an indirect effect on the revenue. These

# settings do not affect that: these settings affect the revenue earned from the catering itself: i.e., by selling food

# and drink.

#

# catering_min_minutes is the shortest journey time that will provide any catering revenue. Anything below that, and

# passengers will not bother to buy any food or drink at all.

#

# catering_level1_minutes is the journey time at which any convoy with a catering level of 1 or higher will earn, per

# passenger, the number of Simu-cents (1/100th of a Simucredit) specified in catering_level1_max_revenue.

#

# The same applies for each subsequent catering level: in other words, higher catering levels only earn more than lower

# catering levels on journeys of at least the catering_levelX_minutes (where X is the catering level in question).

#

# Between each level, the a scaled proportion is applied. So, for example, if catering_min_minutes is 100,

# catering_level1_minutes is 200, and the actual journey time is 150 minutes, then, any convoy with a catering level

# of at least 1 will earn 50% of the amount specified in catering_level1_max_revenue per passenger.

# is used: the number of private car trips per hour is divided by the length of all

# roads in the city in kilometres then multiplied by the congestion density factor

# to get a percentage figure. When this figure is calculated for all British cities

# This setting gives the maximum time that passengers are prepared to wait for their

# transport. The setting is divided by speed bonus value to get the number of minutes.

# In pak128.Britain and pak128, the default speed bonus value for passengers is 18. So,

# at the default wait time of 2,700, the maximum time that passengers are prepared to

# wait is 2,700 / 18 = 150 minutes, or two and a half hours.

#

# The same applies for other sorts of goods: for example, the speed bonus value for

# mail is 15. So, with a passenger_max_wait of 2700, mail would wait for 180

# minutes before being discarded.

# This is also subject to a maximum of thrice the estimated journey time for the

# whole journey, except where thrice the estimated journty time is less than 1/12th

# of this value.

# the stations are staggered so that, at the default value of 2, the station connexions

# will recalculate every one month, and the routes every other two months. The lower the

# number, the more up to date that routes will be, but the slower that the game will be.

# It is recommended to set this at either 2 or 4.

# This is the minimum time in minutes that passengers or goods may wait at an airport.
