Schedule / Interleague play?

[Andrew]

Unfortunately, we might be at the mercy of the schedule generator here. I don't think it's possible to customize it as much as we'd like, unless somebody edits it manually using a text editor, which is a very big task.

I've had that problem before. I think the only way around it was to manually edit it. And it is a LOT of work.

Yah, unfortunately I don't think there's an easy way around it. I have a schedule generator that will create a .txt file with close to what we want, but we'd have to somehow convert this format:

Mon 4/3/1978
1 @ 6 1:00
10 @ 9 1:00
18 @ 11 1:00
19 @ 12 1:00
20 @ 13 1:00

to this:
<GAME day="1" time="1905" away="4" home="6" />
<GAME day="1" time="1905" away="1" home="7" />
<GAME day="1" time="1905" away="2" home="8" />
<GAME day="1" time="1905" away="12" home="14" />

If there's not already a batch file out or one coming out soon, I could probably whip one up over the weekend.

I havn't found one, but it would be awesome if you could get it working. Note, that this schedule isn't exactly what we wanted but is alot closer than the game generated one. It doesn't let us specify the division to play against in interleague play, just the number of series.

I uploaded the Schedule generator here: http://www.oldredboat.com/ootp/html/...ule%20v4.1.zip

The game schedule files are located in data\schedules and can be opened in notepad.

I ended up using this as our schedule:

80 games within division (20 per opponent)
70 games within league outside division (14 per opponent)
12 interleague games (3 per opponent)

I don't think we'll be able to get as specific as we would like with interleague play without some heavy manual editing, but this is pretty good. For future years, it should be pretty easy to just swap the numbers around in this file.
