nostie, Sun Jun 10 2007, 02:05AM

// 0 = Rank by by pure kills
// 1 = Rank by by kill:death ratio
// 2 = Rank by kills minus deaths
// 3 = Rank by points (points delta = (victim_points/killer_points) * multiplier
mani_stats_calculate 3

// Number of kills required before a player is given a rank
// If you are using the Kill Death ratio you should set this quite high
mani_stats_kills_required 50

ALSO
// Number of days since last connect that points decay will start
mani_stats_decay_start 2

// Number of days that the decay will take place over once started
// Points will drop to 500 over this period of time. If the player rejoins
// their points will be restored to full value
mani_stats_decay_period 7

// Number of days before a player is made invisible from
// being ranked. Note that the player is not dropped, if
// they rejoin their rank will be restored.
mani_stats_ignore_ranks_after_x_days 21

// Multiplier used in points calculation, default is 5.0
mani_stats_points_multiplier "5.0"

// Multiplier for victim points lost. If you want victims
// to lose say half points for dying set this to "0.5" etc
mani_stats_points_death_multiplier "1.0"

// Making a weight 2.0 will double the points given/taken

I think kdr is a better system than points, but KDR is hard to change... then again... shouldn't ranks be more constant and be less about playing time? discuss.
