OK, that could be. I probably pass the email address you enter in the admin to sendmail, and sendmail probably can handle a list. Never tested it, but that makes sense.

Love the OU, thank you so much for working hard on them (and yes, I donated).

I'm having an interesting little issue on my draft page, not at all game-breaking, but curious. The tiny little icon images for the draft list (move up, move down, remove) are not appearing. There's a broken image box that displays the correct associated text, but no arrows/remove icon.

When I do a "view image info" in firefox, I get the following:

Yeah, I know about it. It'll be fixed in the next version. The buttons still work, the icons are just bad.

Does OOTPOU support widgets?

We were a heavy Statslab user, and one of the features we used for our home page (United Baseball League (UBL)) were the Statslab widgets. I know it's probably not a huge feature, but something we'll miss with StatsLab no longer being supported.

Can anyone help me with what to do once I've finished a draft and then click "create import?" I can't figure out where the file is that it creates (and have looked in my server folders, etc...

Thanks.

It's not implemented

. I actually have a working version of it internally, but there's a problem with OOTP that Markus might have to fix in the next patch.

For now, you still have to manually enter the draft in-game.

It does not, but I am getting a lot of requests so I will look into it.

I'm going to put out a request to add into the hall of fame voting a flag that will keep a player off of the ballot if they didn't recieve a vote / % of votes. Either would be wonderful.

Hey Getch! Thanks for getting this awesome utility out to the community! It really adds to the online experience.

Got a question for you. I noticed that the draft utility doesn't seem to be honoring the "players shown" number in the admin panel. I can't get it to render any more than 30 players at once. It does however, honor anything below 30.

Any idea what I am doing wrong, or is this a bug?

Ha! I was just going to ask for the same thing....That would make it so much easier for future HOF voting years

Again thank you so much for the utility it is beautiful!

Thanks for looking into adding widgets. I'm going to try and hack out a screen scraper for the HTML this weekend in Ruby orj Query. I just wish the OOTP HTML was easier to parse. Yuck!

I think I figured it out. I had a job for a few years where I was basically an excel/CSV/text file guru/data massager.

And I noticed the bug you were talking about, luckily I had made a backup copy and knew how to avoid it the first time.

Hi Getch!

I am one of those GUBA people who is always looking for new ways to break your program, but since this is a feature question rather than a broken file question, I thought I'd bring it here.

Previously I've played in several StatsLab leagues, and the GUBA used to be one as well, and there are things from StatsLab that I miss mightily. In the following order I would love to see these things brought into Getch if you ever feel like it.

Last Sim Player Stats (I'd love the option to get all stats from one conference or the other, or the entire league, rather than just one team at a time)
Last Sim Team Stats (Same thing, I'd love to be able to look at just one conference or the other at a time)
Milestone Watch - One of my favorite StatsLab functions was the list of upcoming milestones, would rock to have this back again.

Upcoming Sim Preview Page - Mostly it was really cool that it tracked team and player streaks; hitting, pitching, etc., and wins and losses for team.

I'd love to see any and all of these things if you happen to be looking for new things to add.

Looking forward to this! Also, using the utility does not show players who have not been "released" from their HS/College teams yet. They're in the ingame tool, and are actually in the CSV file. I'm wondering, do they not show up in OOTPOU because they still may be assigned to other (amateur) teams?

Zarberg · 08-30-2012, 11:26 AM

I actually ended up getting the draft to work with the OU draft tool, but I had to open the csv file presented by the game and copy/past the player ID numbers into the correct spots, checking each cycle that they matched up.

The only thing is, OotP seemed to want to start the draft over again when it was finished, so instead of clicking "cancel" I just clicked the close box in the upper right corner to quit the game, and when I re-started things were fine.

For safety's sake, though, I made 2 backups of my league before I tried this.

almo · 09-04-2012, 07:03 PM

this may be a dumb question...if so...I am sorry.

Can an expansion draft be set up in OOTPOU? My league is expanding so we would like to hold the draft for the 4 expansion teams if at all possible!

Does the set up work the same way as the Ammy draft?

Thanks

Sorry guys, been busy of late. Catching up on the posts here:

Have you set up the age limits of the feeder leagues in the Admin screen? I believe you need to set them as one year higher than in-game. MY league has feeder leagues and the draft utility shows all the players well prior to the ammy draft, regardless of whether they have been released or not.

Well, it depends on how OOTP does it. I noticed for inaugural drafts, it'll actually set the player's "draft eligible" flag to true, so inaugural drafts actually work in OU (side note: the next release of OU will actually fully support inaugural drafts, inclugin auto-picking). If OOTP treats expansion drafts the same well, then you can use OU, although I would strongly oppose auto-picking, since OU thinks it's an ammy draft and only consider talent.

The draft list is not saving selections for me - any idea of what might cause something like that? TIA

Details:
- Some draft list selections are not saved at all.
- It seems like only 1 draft list name at a time is saved.
- Returning to the draft page will sometimes show a different draft list selection than you last picked.
