[rules-users] [drools-planner] please advice on IntConstraintOccurrence weight

Hi, (using drools-planner 5.5.0.Final) I'm struggling with assigning weights to IntConstraintOccurrence in a rule's LHS. If I assign different weights for different rules (because we think one rule is more important than an other) our end result is far worse than when we assign all equal weights. I do not look at the total value of hard and soft score but at the number of violations. I can imagine that the planner can evolve much easier to a better solution with all weights being the same because if not then "transient" moves will be made impossible to take. But how should we then implement importance in rules? Thanks   ----------------- http://www.codessentials.com - Your essential software, for free! Follow us at http://twitter.com/#!/Codessentials
