After 2,5 years absence, I am back in Automation. Before re-starting my ATC contest, I want to get back into the game with something else.
Since taxi fleets are mostly uniform (Ford Crown Victoria, Chevrolet Caprice, Mercedes E-Class, just to name a few evergreens in taxi service) it makes sense for the countrys to make a contest.
Since the Iron Curtain has been fallen in 1990, we are able to recieve participants from all over the world. Gasmea and Frunia are searching for their new taxi!
Both countries have different ideas of their perfect taxi. You see the requirements here as welll as the formula to crown the king of Taxis.
As you see, you might need to propose two different cars, as it is hard to meet the regulations of both countrys at once (I failed trying).
An idea is:
[(Price x Fuel consumption) + (Comfort value x reliability value)] x (drivability value x interior space) / (Automation Test track Lap time x another track).
How do you think about that? Competition will be open for entries after I have finished my thoughts about the formula.
