dynamic_tier

Dynamic tier datum

These datums are essentially used to configure the dynamic system They serve as a very simple way to see at a glance what dynamic is doing and what it is going to do

For example, a tier will say "we will spawn 1-2 roundstart antags"

Vars
advisory_report	String which is sent to the players reporting which tier is active
config_tag	Tag the tier uses for configuring. Don't change this unless you know what you're doing.
min_pop	This tier will not be selected if the population is below this number
name	The human readable name of the tier
ruleset_type_settings	How Dynamic will select rulesets based on the tier
tier	Tier number - A number which determines the severity of the tier - the higher the number, the more antags
weight	The chance this tier will be selected from all tiers Keep all tiers added up to 100 weight, keeps things readable
Procs
set_config_value	Used for parsing config entries to validate them

How Dynamic will select rulesets based on the tier

Every tier configures each of the ruleset types - ie, roundstart, light midround, heavy midround, latejoin

Every type can be configured with the following:

LOW_END: The lower for how many of this ruleset type can be selected
HIGH_END: The upper for how many of this ruleset type can be selected
HALF_RANGE_POP_THRESHOLD: Below this population range, the high end is quartered
FULL_RANGE_POP_THRESHOLD: Below this population range, the high end is halved

Non-roundstart ruleset types also have:

TIME_THRESHOLD: World time must pass this threshold before dynamic starts running this ruleset type
EXECUTION_COOLDOWN_LOW: The lower end for how long to wait before running this ruleset type again
EXECUTION_COOLDOWN_HIGH: The upper end for how long to wait before running this ruleset type again

var
tier

Tier number - A number which determines the severity of the tier - the higher the number, the more antags
