Like the original Elite and Text Elite, awlite has no end-game goal. There are,
|

however, some milestones you can achieve even now, for instance:
|
||||
|
||||
* reaching the Elite trade rank (in v1.7+ - see below);
|
||||
* reaching a certain amount of credits;
|
||||
* collecting certain amounts of rare valuable items;

As of now, player ranking system and statistics are in the works. The basic
|
||||
system of stats and ranks was introduced in v1.7. It is loosely based upon the
|
||||
Trade ranks of Elite Dangerous but the formula is fully unique to awlite.
|
||||
|
||||
- How are ranks calculated in awlite v1.7 and above?
|
||||
|
||||
To keep things simple, the formula currently only considers the current cash
|
||||
balance and overall expenses to calculate the profit margin, then taking log2
|
||||
of it. As of now, the following profit margin to rank mapping is in effect:
|
||||
|
||||
* Under 100%: Penniless
|
||||
* 100% to 200%: Mostly Penniless
|
||||
* 200% to 400%: Peddler
|
||||
* 400% to 800%: Dealer
|
||||
* 800% to 1600%: Merchant
|
||||
* 1600% to 3200%: Broker
|
||||
* 3200% to 6400%: Entrepreneur
|
||||
* 6400% to 12800%: Tycoon
|
||||
* 12800% and above: Elite
|
||||
|
||||
So, to reach Elite trade rank, you need to make 128 times more money than you
|
||||
spend. This system might change in future versions, as it's not clear whether
|
||||
or not this is possible at all.
