Today's Games Output

Post by t00nces »

In our league, we meet once a week to simulate five or six days worth of games - one day at a time. We like to view the results of each day's games before moving to the next day, etc. etc. The issue we've run into is that the Today's Games XML output only seems to record one day's worth of games so that when we update the league website only the last day's games show up.

Is it possible for TodayGame.xml to display the entire five or six days worth of games that we run. If we choose to simulate 5 days worth of games at once, will that populate TodayGame.xml with five days of games?

What if we do not check 'Auto Output after Simulation' in Output Options/General, run each days worth of games separately and then output everything at the end of all five or six games - would that work?

We'd like to avoid running five or six days worth of games at one time (if that solves the issue) or manually having to combine each day's TodayGame.xml into one at the end of the weeks games.

We've searched the documentation but haven't been able to figure it out. Apologies in advance if we've missed something.

Regards,

Sorry but it’s not possible. The TodayGames HTML and XML are built on the fly in the STHS and are keep in memory only. If you close the STHS, the data vanished. The data also vanished if you pressed the “Simulate Game” button again. But if you press the “simulate 5 games in row”, the TodayGames HTML and XML will have the 5 days of data.

Thank you for the quick reply! Perhaps this could be a feature request for the next version?

Well, you are using the simulator a weird way. Technically, the options you are looking for already exist in the “Consecutive Days” button. I just don’t understand why you are pressing 5-6 times on “Simulate” button instead of pressing once on the “Consecutive Days” option.
