Request: 12 Teams 66 Games (1S/2D/6T)

[BuntDoubles]

Early May start (First Friday if possible?), regular season ending sometime in August (Early September is fine if its more suitable)

Series lengths of 3 games (over 3 days?). 1h & 1a series vs each team.
Atleast a days break after each series.

No preference with specific game days, just less compact then a regular generated ootp schedule. Happy with random times for weekend fixtures, but weekday fixtures too start after 6pm - unsure how it works?

Finally, an All star game to be included, mid season, if possible in the middle of its own week

Hopefully a pretty standard request, pretty new-ish to OOTP so any help here would be appreciated! New to this forum, did check the schedule list, but still I apologize if this has already been done.

Welcome! I have something, but I am not sure if it completely fits with your vision, so please advise if something can be adjusted to be more what you want. That at least first draft of the schedule will be in the following comment.

First point about the All-Star Game... It seems like you have a single division in the league. I believe the game will not allow an All-Star Game if there is only one division.

Timeframe... Starts first Friday of May, ends late middle of August.

Offdays... Usually two days off after each series but occasionally only one. There is a week break in the middle of the season. All teams are either playing or off on the same days. There are no offdays within series - they are only before/after.

Gametimes... All games on weekdays at 7:05pm. Saturday games ~30% 1:05pm, ~30% 4:05pm, and ~40% 7:05pm. Sunday games ~60% 1:05pm, ~25% 4:05pm, ~15% 7:05pm.

Thanks for your time, the first draft of the schedule seems to be looking very good. Very happy with choices regarding scheduling/offdays and gametimes!

My only request is when it comes to the allstar game, a slight misunderstanding as there are 2 divisions within the subleague.

If you are happy with everything else, then I believe the file as it is now might work already. I really should refresh myself on the details for how it works with balanced schedules and variations on the "type" in the header.

But if it does not work I believe that it is a simple adjustment of the file to "fix" it for you. Open the file in a text editor and change in that header the "ILN_BGY_G66_T12_C_" near the top of the file to "ILN_BGY_G66_SL1_D1_T6_D2_T6_C_".

If this works for you, great. But let me know if there is anything else needed to get to what you want.

File works as it is, no editing was required. A quick sim through a season and everything appears to have ran smoothly.

Thanks for your assistance!
