Scoring Groups

Scoring Groups are containers that bundle scoring rules together for specific fleets. Each fleet can be assigned to one scoring group, and one scoring group can apply to multiple fleets. When a PIREP is filed, vAMSYS looks up the fleet's scoring group and evaluates all its configured rules to calculate the pilot's score. Without a scoring group, PIREPs from a fleet receive no point scoring.

Accessing Scoring Groups

In Orwell, go to HQ → Rewards → Scoring Groups. You need the Can See Score Settings permission.

How Scoring Groups Work

The scoring system is built on a simple hierarchy:

1. Your airline creates scoring groups — for example "Narrow Body", "Wide Body", "Turboprop"

2. Each scoring group has its own set of enabled scoring rules with customised parameters

3. Each fleet is assigned to one scoring group (or none)

4. When a PIREP is filed, the system looks up the fleet's scoring group and evaluates all its rules

This design lets you tailor scoring to different aircraft types. A turboprop fleet might have simpler engine rules, while a widebody fleet could have strict engine start sequences and fuel management scoring.

Creating a Scoring Group

A scoring group only has one field:

• Name — required, maximum 240 characters. This name is shown to pilots on the Phoenix Scores page.

Once created, you configure the group by adding scoring rules and associating fleets.

List View

The scoring groups list displays:

Column	Description
ID	Database identifier
Group Name	The scoring group name (sortable)
Applicable Fleets	Fleets assigned to this group
Enabled Scoring Rules	Count of rules configured in this group

Editing a Scoring Group

The edit page has two tabs: Scoring Rules and Fleets.

Scoring Rules Tab

This tab lets you add and manage the scoring rules for this group. Click the add button to select rules from the master list of available scoring rules. Each rule can be customised with:

• Name — how the rule appears in the PIREP scorer (staff view)

• UI Name — optional override for how the rule appears on the Phoenix Scores page (pilot view). If empty, defaults to Name.

• Points — how many points to award (positive) or deduct (negative). Some rules use thresholds instead of a single points value.

• Rule-specific parameters — additional configuration fields that vary by rule type

Rules can be individually edited or deleted from the group. See Scoring Rules for a complete reference of all available rules and their parameters.

Fleets Tab

This tab shows which fleets currently use this scoring group. Two actions are available:

• Associate — assign a fleet to this group. Only fleets not already assigned to any scoring group appear in the list.

• Dissociate — remove a fleet from this group. The fleet will no longer receive scoring.

Copying Rules Between Groups

A header action on the list page lets you copy all scoring rules from a source group to a destination group. This is useful when creating a new group that should start with a similar configuration to an existing one.

Reward Settings

At Orwell → HQ → Settings → Reward Settings, you can configure additional scoring behaviour that applies across all scoring groups:

• Toggle whether Repositioning, Training, and Charter flights earn time and points

• Toggle whether taxi time is included in awarded flight time

• Configure bonus points for Airport Managers
