Revision as of 20:18, 12 February 2020

As explained on the Configurations page, any MSP Challenge edition is configurable to fit your own requirements. The best way to do this is by editing the basic configuration file of a particular edition.

The Clyde marine region edition has a basic configuration with the following main parameters:

  • Start date January 2018, end date January 2050
  • So each of the standard four eras covers eight years:
    • Era 1: Jan 2018 - Jan 2026
    • Era 2: Jan 2026 - Jan 2034
    • Era 3: Jan 2034 - Jan 2042
    • Era 4: Jan 2042 - Jan 2050
  • Six planning regions (confirm when we have the possibility to open the game again):
    • Orange (North Ayrshire Council)
    • Yellow (Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park)
    • Blue (Inverclyde Council)
    • Purple (Dumfries and Galloway Council)
    • Green (South Ayrshire Council)
    • Red (Argyll and Bute)
  • Dataset as stipulated on the Data sources page. See the Clyde marine region edition table.
  • Two background simulations:
    • Ecopath-with-Ecosim ecosystem simulation, and predefined ecosystem pressures (noise, artificial substrate, surface disturbance, bottom disturbance, fishing efforts and protection from fishing activities) generated from different human activities.
    • Shipping simulation, monthly ship traffic entering, leaving or within the Clyde Marine region.
  • Restrictions and errors:
    • Errors when planning different physically-obstructing human activities on the same place, e.g. a wind farm on a shipping lane, or vice versa.
    • Warnings when planning human activities with defined ecosystem pressures in an MPA or Natura2000 site, or vice versa.
