request for future versions of Catobase

rcbuss · 05-06-2004, 11:27 AM

Right now there are two options in Catobase regarding park effects: none, or a park factor based on runs at home vs. runs away from each park.

When using the latter option, given the small sample size of games in a season, I'll sometimes see park factors < 0.90 or > 1.10 for parks that are 100s across the board.

My wish for future versions is a third option: a park factor for each park based on the ballparks ratings from within the game relative to the rating of other parks within their league.

Where are you finding park factors in CatoBase? In v5.4.0 or 6.0.0?

(And I thought I had explored everything....)

I don't have it on the computer that I'm at right now, but I think it's within the MSAccess file that's generated when the program is run. I believe that it's within the "Parks" portion of that Access file.

Ah, so it's not in the html output anywhere?

Jeff, could it be added (maybe to the schedule page?).

Thanks!
