New Utility Idea (feedback request)

RobertB · 05-03-2002, 06:17 AM

I have been putting several requests for an ability in OOTP for printing/exporting out team/league schedules for a little while now, and I don't know how soon (if at all) that might appear. So I came up with a new idea I wanted to run out there and see what other people thought (and if there are more people than I out there interested)...

The reason I've been looking for a print/export function is that I take those schedules and manipulate them to find out certain information such as: W/L streaks, W/L vs. certain opponents, in/out division record and other stats such as these (some a bit more obscure than others.) I was thinking that a new utility could be developed that would export the schedule into a database and might even do some of these calculations for output.

I am not much of a developer myself, but I would be willing to tackle this if the call were out there, but I would also be more than willing to let someone else go after this if they wanted to (and had more talent than I).

So, here are the key questions:

1) Would a utility of this sort be interesting to you?

2) What sort of information would you want this utility to provide?

Thank you for your time...

The thing I miss most is not tracking team W/L streaks. A utility fot this is worthwhile.
