Plans for Bygfoot and current Definitions

[pvossen]

Any new plans for Bygfoot? I've used it for a couple of years
now in various linux forms, Debian, Red Hat, Mandriva, Etc.. Love
it and I tried to use the software you suggested to build and refine
a couple of leagues. However, each time I saved the players and
teams it didn't save or function correctly. So my build must have
been bad or I was using the wrong software.

Let me know what's up guys. I love the program.
Simple and works fast.

I suspect you read this part of the documentation as you know the bygfoot-team-creator, but have you done the last part

How to make Bygfoot load the team definition

To tell the program that it should load the team settings and players from a definition file, the file should be somewhere in the support directories (e.g. ./support_files/teams or $HOME/.bygfoot-1.9/definitions/teams) and the team section in the league definition has to link to the file.

Such a link is established by adding the tag <def_file> to the team section (containing <team_name>) containing the part of the team definition file name between team_ and .xml. In our case the corresponding part of the league definition league_germany1.xml looks like this:

...snip...
<teams>
<team>
<team_name>München</team_name>
<def_file>germany_bayern</def_file>
</team>
<team>
...snip...
</teams>
</league>

The definition file was called team_germany_bayern.xml, remember? So we write germany_bayern into the def_file tag.

I don't think the bygfoot-team-creator does that for you.

Any new plans for Bygfoot?

The plans are:
- Find the necessary motivation to continue coding and find somebody to help me. Conversations about Bygfoot generally help me in the motivation area.
- Fixing the issues in our bug tracker https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=browse&group_id=46139&atid=445176&status=1
- start to implement features in our bug tracker https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=browse&group_id=46139&atid=445179&assignee=704175&status=1
