How to add scheduling rules

Scheduling rules tell the generator what it has to respect, or should try to, when it places games: rest between games, a court that isn’t free in the morning, a streamed court every team should play on. They live in the กฎการกำหนดเวลา tab of your event’s settings. Rules apply the next time you generate the schedule: saving a rule moves no game.

Before you start

• You need to manage the event or its schedule.
• If the schedule is locked, the rules are locked too. See how to lock parts of your event.

Steps

The steps add a การครอบคลุมสนาม rule, so that every team plays on the streamed court. Every rule type is added the same way.

1. In your event’s planner, click การตั้งค่า at the bottom of the sidebar.

   

2. Open the กฎการกำหนดเวลา tab.

   

3. Under กฎเกณฑ์ที่เข้มงวด, click เพิ่มกฎ. For a soft preference instead, use เพิ่มค่ากำหนด under ค่ากำหนดแบบยืดหยุ่น.

   

4. Choose การครอบคลุมสนาม. The new rule opens.

   

5. Under สนามที่ต้องครอบคลุม, pick your streamed court. เกมต่อทีม is the least number of games each team plays there, and ใช้กับ narrows the rule to a division or to teams. The summary at the top of the rule says what it does.

   

6. Click บันทึกการเปลี่ยนแปลงการตั้งค่าทั้งหมด.

Hard rules and soft preferences

The tab has two lists, and each rule type can go in either:

• กฎเกณฑ์ที่เข้มงวด must be met. When a time slot would break one, the generator leaves that slot for another game, or empty.
• ค่ากำหนดแบบยืดหยุ่น guide the generator without blocking anything. Each has a weight: drag its slider towards สูง for the preferences that matter most.

Every rule has a switch to turn it off without deleting it, and a bin to delete it. Click a rule’s title to open or close it.

ช่วงเวลาปิดกั้น

Blocks a court, or all courts, during a time window, on one playing day or on all of them: a gym you only get at noon, or a lunch break for the whole venue. ใช้กับ can narrow it to a division or to teams, for a team that can’t arrive before a certain time. Set both a เวลาเริ่มต้น and an เวลาสิ้นสุด: a blackout without a time window blocks nothing.

จำนวนเกมต่อเนื่องสูงสุด

Limits how many games a team plays back to back. Two games count as back to back when less than 15 minutes separate them.

เวลาพักขั้นต่ำ

Sets the shortest rest, in minutes, between the end of a team’s game and the start of its next one.

ข้อจำกัดของสนาม

Keeps matches on the courts you allow: all matches, a division (and, when it has several groups, only some of them), or chosen teams. It only says where matches may go. To make sure every team gets a turn on a court, use การครอบคลุมสนาม.

การครอบคลุมสนาม

Gives every team at least the number of games you set on the courts you pick, usually the streamed court.

As a hard rule, those courts are held for teams that haven’t played on them yet, and given up only when the court would otherwise sit empty. This steers the whole schedule: on a day that is already full, giving everyone a turn can leave a few games unscheduled, so check the schedule after you generate. As a soft preference, those courts favour teams that haven’t played on them yet but are never held open for them.

With จัดเรียงตามวัน on in the blueprint, each day is generated on its own, so the rule counts each day separately: a team’s turn on the court one day doesn’t count for the next.

เงื่อนไขที่กำหนดเอง

Builds your own IF/THEN rule. ขอบเขตหลัก picks the matches it looks at. เมื่อ narrows them with conditions on the court number, start time, division, home team or away team. แล้ว says whether those matches ต้องตรงกัน or ต้องไม่ตรงกัน the conditions you add there.
