There’s definitely a problem with this, after looking at it closer, I have the same issue and have been looking at the code. I’ll be in touch when I can get to it.

Thanks

I’ve never had a problem with that, but in checking with an element inspector, it does throw an error, so I’ll look into it.

Thanks

I’m not 100% sure without looking at it, but there is a problem with the import function as there’s a field missing that is included in the export.

I’m going to be putting out an update soon (although I’ve said that for a week now), that should fix it. If it doesn’t work after that, let me know…

I actually figured out how to wrap it into the sport files last night as not all sports would need inter-group. There is one other file I have to clean up to be able to implement it properly though. If you’d help do a quick test on the code, on a not functional league, I can give you code tonight, then put it into the next release.

Hi Xabir,

The marvels of an online translator never cease to amaze me…

The tie-breaker issue is a massive one and I basically got about four hours of sleep all weekend working on it. My plan is to have a way to pick the tie-breakers that your particular sport/league needs out of a list of possibilities that we’d be able to add on to. I’m close to having a solution for ties between two teams, but things get complicated when there are more than two teams involved. My experience is with European basketball, and over the last season I’ve dealt with a number of situations that I’d like to deal with.

My other thoughts are once we have the tie-breaker handled, it would be nice to have a ‘simulated week’ where a user could enter simulated results of upcoming matches to see how the tie-breakers would play out. That’s a long-term wish list, but considering the amount of time I’ve spent on spreadsheets going over possible outcomes in various leagues, it would be more than worth it…

Anyway, the thing with LeagueManager is, much of the power in the system lies in the fact that the ‘sport’ files control how things work. The plan is to have tie-breakers linked to the sport, so for instance, we’d get the full list of FIFA tie-break scenarios, build them into the system, and then anyone doing anything with football(soccer), could use those rules if they wanted to. Maybe we can also give independent leagues reason to go with standardized tie-break rules instead of making them up themselves, so that there aren’t 100,000,000,000 different sets of rules. OK, that’s wishful thinking, but I think you can follow what I’m thinking.

The bottom line for you is once I get the tie-break code working where I can set a rule and actually have the system reorder the teams based on the rule, we’ll get something working for you. I’m close to getting things working, so I expect to be able to have something moving forward this week that we can get tested.

Good to hear from you, and thank you for using LeagueManager…

3.8.1, or 3.8.8.1?

I would highly recommend updating to the latest version, I’ve fixed a number of bugs and have made some enhancements to the Widget. As mentioned though, there will be another update shortly that will address a few more Widget issues…
