Given that some games (1830 and all direct derivatives, 1856, 18EU) are pretty mature and others (1835, 1880) are still in the bug fixing cycle, I suggest a new label for the stable games. Any thoughts about how to name it? "Mature", "Stable"? We have "Fully Playable" (see above) "Partial Playable" (none) "Not Yet Playable" (1870, 1825) "Prototype" (1826, 18Scan, 18VA) "In development" (1837). However I do not know how the three latter categories really differ? Maybe we should have something like: * Fully Playable with qualification: -Mature (Only very few minor bugs to be expected) -Stable (Only minor bugs to be expected, can be fixed easily) -Testing (Major bugs to be expected, can take some time to be resolved) * Partially Playable (All xml files ready, some rules coded, tests possible, but expect not to finish games) * In development (All xml files ready, started coding) * Prototype (Only xml definition files, no coding done so far) Thoughts?

So the option was created for 1830 (default there "No" too) and it exists for all 1830 "clones" or "close derivatives", even if there is a ruling in the derivative rule book.

I like these definitions, tidies things up a bit. Maybe an addition to the game setup screen that lists the definition as you have stated it above?

That is a good idea. The missing bit I am currently working on, and that I have to finish to release an alpha version of Rails 2.0 is the GameSetupWindow, that was the reason to bring that up at the moment. So if there are others features people would love to see there, it is a good time to bring them to my attention now. However I will only add the easy ones immediately ;-) On 11/14/2013 12:27 PM, Phil Davies wrote: > I like these definitions, tidies things up a bit. > > Maybe an addition to the game setup screen that lists the definition > as you have stated it above?

1880 comes to my mind :) Von: Stefan Frey <ste...@we...> An: Development list for Rails: an 18xx game <rai...@li...> Betreff: Re: [Rails-devel] Specification of implementation levels for different 18xx games in Rails (was: [Rails-users] Bug in 18GA private auction) Datum: Thu, 14 Nov 2013 13:21:44 +0100 That is a good idea. The missing bit I am currently working on, and that I have to finish to release an alpha version of Rails 2.0 is the GameSetupWindow, that was the reason to bring that up at the moment. So if there are others features people would love to see there, it is a good time to bring them to my attention now. However I will only add the easy ones immediately ;-) On 11/14/2013 12:27 PM, Phil Davies wrote: > I like these definitions, tidies things up a bit. > > Maybe an addition to the game setup screen that lists the definition > as you have stated it above?

Adding 1880 to the GameSetupWindow is easy: It only requires editing the gameslist.xml ;-) Done!

The way I'd used them in the past is this: - Fully Playable = You can complete a game. It's feature complete. - Partially Playable = You can start a game, but probably won't be able to finish it. - Not Yet Playable = You probably can't even get through the initial auction or first turn. I'm not sure what "In Development" and "Prototype" would signify beyond the original couple of labels. Originally, this setup was to help signify to users which games they could play through with the expectation of completing and which games, if they played them, they'd be helping to QA more than they'd be playing. I'm fine with relabeling these however makes sense. The distinction between "Mature" and "Stable" seems to be splitting hairs a bit. I'd suggest using only one and not both. ---Brett.

About mature and stable: Maybe the wording is confusing, however I prefer to distinguish between those games which have been out in the wild for some times and those which the developers thought are feature completed. Concrete example: How would you qualify 1835 and 1880 currently (in Rails 1.x)? I think it is clear that neither of them is as robust for play as 1830, 1856 and 18EU. Are both still in testing? However 1835 seems much better than 1880. Or is 1835 already stable/mature, even it still has some bugs open? Or is 1880 still under development. My idea is doing the same as you and Erik did in the past, put games soon into higher categories to give incentives to the players. So my proposal would be: Mature: 1830 and derivatives, 1856, 18EU "Recently released": 1835 "Released for Testing": 1880 Stefan On 11/14/2013 03:01 PM, brett lentz wrote: > The way I'd used them in the past is this: > > - Fully Playable = You can complete a game.

Even if games are at slightly different points in their testing, if they're not feature complete, they're not "Fully Playable". So, I don't see a strong need to distinguish 1835 from 1880 by using a fine-grained classification scale. Saying they're both at the "testing" stage conveys enough information to say that we have a high confidence that bugs will be encountered during some/most play sessions. If we start to see a distinction, it's probably because 1835 is almost ready to be marked "Stable" while 1880 has a ways to go still. So, what I'd suggest is to define the criteria we're using to classify these things and be as objective as possible about it. For example: - "In Development" - At least the XML has been written. - "Alpha" - Most major features implemented, needs lots of testing. Unlikely that you'll complete a full game. - "Beta" - All features implemented, but still could have major bugs. Full games are possible at least 50% of the time. - "Stable" - Fully implemented and tested. If any bugs are found, they will be minor. Playing nearly all games to completion can be expected. In this case, 1835 is definitely "Beta", but close to ready to be marked "Stable", while 1880 is more on the line between "Alpha" and "Beta". ---Brett.
