# Rules and data: TE4 World Tour under the XKT profile

Mod layers, lowest to highest precedence: TE4-ModdingSDK → XKT → ScoreBoardsByStef → ATPWTA Patch → ATP Realistic Stats V2.



## Travel

Fares are priced zone to zone from `Money.ini [Plane]` (row = from, column = to). The matrix is not symmetric: Europe → North America is 800, the reverse 750. `[Hotel] BasePrice` = 50. How a trip is charged (return legs, staff fares, class multipliers) is not in any file.

| From \ to | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 |
|---|---:|---:|---:|---:|---:|---:|---:|---:|
| 1 North America | 300 | 500 | 750 | 1500 | 750 | 1000 | 1500 | 1800 |

| 8 Oceania | 1800 | 2000 | 2200 | 2000 | 1500 | 1400 | 800 | 400 |

## Registration and ranking

- Registration opens a year ahead and closes 3–4 weeks before the event (TEM2 documentation). The planner uses a 4-week lockout.
- Ranking counts the best 18 singles results (junior: best 6) — `GameSys.ini [RankingATP] NbBestTrnS`.

## ATP categories

From ATP Realistic Stats V2. Points run winner first, then the loser of each round from the final back.

## Local fixes to the mod files

Typos corrected in place in the installed ATPWTA Patch files by `fix_mod_files.py`, from `corrections.json`. The game and this site both read the corrected values. A Patch update from mod.io overwrites them: re-run `py fix_mod_files.py --apply`.

| Tour | Event | Field | Was | Now | Status | Why |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ATP | ASB CLASSIC | Country | AU | NZ | applied | ASB Classic is in Auckland. XKT had NZ; the Patch changed it. |
| ATP | Dallas Open | Country | AU | US | applied | Dallas, Texas. XKT had US. |
| ATP | Plava Laguna Croatia Open Umag | Country | AT | HR | applied | Umag, Croatia. XKT had HR. |
| ATP | Canberra | Country | TR | AU | applied | Canberra, Australia. XKT had AU. |
| ATP | Nouméa | Country | TR | NC | applied | Nouméa, New Caledonia. XKT had NC. |
| ATP | Koblenz | Country | FR | DE | applied | Koblenz, Germany. XKT had DE. |
| ATP | Austria M15 | Country | AU | AT | applied | Named Austria M15. XKT had AT. |
| ATP | Baréin M15 | Country | BR | BH | applied | Baréin = Bahrain. XKT had BH. |
| ATP | Austria M15 | Country | AU | AT | applied | Named Austria M15. XKT had AT. |
| ATP | Australia M15 | Country | SE | AU | applied | Named Australia M15. XKT had AU. |
| ATP | Irvine | Country | RS | US | applied | Irvine, California. XKT had US. |
| ATP | Arad | Country | IL | RO | applied | The Arad Challenger is in Arad, Romania. XKT had RO. (A smaller Arad exists in Israel, but it hosts no tour event.) |
| WTA | Arad | Country | IL | RO | applied | ITF Arad, Romania. XKT had RO. |
| WTA | W15 Lakewood, CA | Country | TN | US | applied | Lakewood, California (the name says CA). Wrong in XKT too; found by the city audit. |
| WTA | Makarska 125K | Category | 24 | 17 | applied | Category 24 is not defined in TourCategory.WTA. The six other WTA 125K events (32 draw, $125,000 purse) are all category 17. Wrong in XKT too. |
| WTA | Irvine | Country | RS | US | applied | Irvine, California (same event as ATP Tournament370). Wrong in XKT too; found by the city audit. |

## Calendar values that differ from XKT

After local fixes. Rows marked “local fix” are corrections of errors that XKT also had.

| Tour | Event | Change | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| WTA | Makarska 125K | Category 24 (XKT) → 17 (ATPWTA Patch) | local fix |
| WTA | W15 Lakewood, CA | Country TN (XKT) → US (ATPWTA Patch) | local fix |
| WTA | Irvine | Country RS (XKT) → US (ATPWTA Patch) | local fix |

## Open audit leads

Possible Country typos from `audit.py` that no one has reviewed yet. Reviewed false alarms are listed under `dismissed` in `corrections.json`.

- None

## Inferences

- **ground_codes:** Events without a Surface asset use the Ground code; CL/GR/HD/HD_BG/HR/IH map to their obvious types, RA and PC to Synthetic (the AO Plexicushion asset is Type 3), IN to Synthetic (Carpet). WTA ITF codes map by name: ITFCL Clay, ITFGR/ITFGRC Grass, ITFCAR Synthetic (Carpet), ITFHD/ITFHDD/ITFIN/ITFIH/ITFRE Hard (ITFRE is the least certain).
- **mod_precedence:** Layers apply in ascending Mods.ini [Priority]; a full file in a later layer replaces earlier ones, and <file>_Mod.ini merges key by key. Agrees with DependOn = XKT and the Player.log load list.
- **points_order:** EntryPoints lists winner first, then the loser of each round from the final backwards.
- **prize_order:** PrizeMoney lists the total purse ($-prefixed), then winner, finalist, and each earlier round.
- **two_week_events:** Singles draws of 96 or more span two weeks. Evidence: no ATP/WTA main-tour event is scheduled in the week after a 128-draw Slam or a 96-draw 1000 (only junior events fill it).
- **year_modulo:** YearModulo m with YearModulo+ offset o: included when (year + o) mod |m| == 0 for m > 0, and != 0 for m < 0. Reproduces the 52-year Olympic host cycle and the Montreal/Toronto alternation.
