is there a overview of getting points?

Is there a overview of how many points you get for each possible edit & driving action?

I tried to search on the forum and wiki but couldn't find it so far...

(if there is any, can you make it sticky in this subforum? :) )

Thnx!

There is a very clear table in the blog:

Points for forum posts are missing, each 3 posts gains you 2 points.

Too bad I never calculated this when the editing-points in the dashboard were real live...

My guess: There are several edits possible per selected road: name, city, type, direction, level, connectivity. As every edit has its own merits, they all should be awarded. That means that mass-editing several roads at the same time can get you a lot of points at once!

Be aware: it has been said by the devs that editing points also can be negative! For example when you delete a road you created just before, the delete action will cost you the points that you gained with the add-road action.

as I answered vanwaik over email, the *truth* is that you are saved for each change.
If you are changing a bunch of segments, then each segment will count as 1 edit (even if you do them all at once). Sorry if this wasn't clear before.

If you have any other questions, please let us know.

another question: what does 'per edit' mean? p.e.: if you select four roads and edit them simultanously, is that one or four edits? :)

When you udpate several segments at the same time, each segment is updated seperately (i.e. gets a separate line in our DB). Therefore, when your points are calculated, each segment you've changed will give you 1.5 points (by segment, not by change).
