A set of files from Teiserver for testing balance algorithm changes without needing to have a whole server testing setup.
The purpose is to enable ideas for balance algorithms to be better tested and investigated by those interested in doing so. It provides a better place for implementation ideas to be discussed and tracked compared to discord and will make for an easier way to extend testing of ideas in a uniform way.
You will need to install Elixir.
git clone git@github.com:beyond-all-reason/balance_algorithm.git

We can use unit tests to ensure implementations of each algorithm produce the output expected, it also allows us to change internal details and ensure the algorithms as a whole are unaffected. We can run the tests with mix test. Tests are located in the [test] folder.
