cp: figure out tie breakers

[catornot]

this is me making an issue in advance because #937 won't have this feature

aka: what happens when teams earn the same amount of points at the same time

fyi: vanilla has this figured by running scoring out of sync

Honestly IMO it would make sense to just call it a draw, doesn't the game have any code for that or does one team have to be declared the winner?

[catornot]

one team is always declared as a winner because of

vanilla has this figured by running scoring out of sync

so each hardpoint adds score at different times therefore you can't have (well I assume it's unlikely) that two hardpoints add score at the same time.

[ASpoonPlaysGames]

I meant like gamemode-agnostic, does the game support draws? I think it does because a private match I believe can end in a draw if you end the game manually

[catornot]

yes, it's just returning TEAM_UNASSIGNED instead of a real team in the decide winner function.

[Zanieon]

Have you tested if this happens with my experimental branch? Since i rewrote the entire core logic that runs the gamemodes, the tiebreaker might be there already.

[catornot]

what no, this is not related to any tie breaker logic. cp just has a special way of handling win conditions in vanilla which isn't replicated in northstar.

To be clear, the difference is that in vanilla, each hardpoint keeps track of its own state and ticks at its own rate, but in the rewrite, it's done globally (since it's nicer that way otherwise).
