Schedule Not Generating

Rosco Peabody · 01-30-2020, 05:05 PM

I started a Custom league, made the whole league structure and everything, starting with an inaugural draft. I started on July 1st. I went to go to July 2nd for the Inaugural Draft and it said no schedule was generated. I went to league structure and it said, "It's not possible to generate the schedule"

What went wrong???

I'm sorry, it just reads "It's not possible to change the league structure" without giving any options for schedule

Sounds like something in the way the league is configured is preventing a schedule from generating, but it's hard to tell exactly what without seeing the game. If you can upload the save (instructions here), I'll take a look and try to see what the issue is.

Okay, I downloaded that program and tried uploading it here at work, but the firewall here would not let me use it. I will try again at home.

Even if you upload it to Dropbox or Google Drive, just PM us the link and we can get it from there.

Okay perfect because I was having issues with Cyberduck.

It's the schedule rules - you have the inter-conference and inter-division games both set to 10, but the inter-division games alone would exceed your schedule length, since you have 3 5-team divisions in each conference, which would require 100 inter-division games total where your schedule length is 82. Take them both down to a lower number, something like the 2-4 range, and it'll generate a schedule for you when you save the rules settings.

Ohhh, so it's ten for EACH team? I thought that meant like ten total. Got it. Thanks.

I feel like there could be a little more clarity in those set up menus about that (also there are a few typos)
