PC2019

Love trade week - news or speculation to read every morning while i drink my coffee.

Been a really busy week & much less to report that I'd like.  Expecting to have a full day available tomorrow & get some meaningful progress.

With my work schedule I tend to get one really solid dev day each week, then some hours here and there. Today was my first really solid day since my schedule has settled down, so another quick progress post.

For people with no dev background you might be surprised to hear that the single most challenging (and frustrating) piece of the game to write has always been the fixturing. I consider myself a pretty capable bloke, and feel like i should be able to write a function that just rolls out a fixture for x teams. After many attempts thats never been true, and it frustrates me. The game has workable fixtures for leagues of all sizes - but they're hand crafted on spreadsheets, then converted to code for the game. Never a clean function that just builds it for me, despite my many cracks at it.

Anyway, today i finally built a clean AFL fixture generator. 18 teams, 23 rounds, 1 bye each in rd 12 through 14, 11 home games each etc. Necessary, time consuming, and not fun AT ALL. But PC2019 has it now and we're moving forward. Signing out for today!

hi sounds like the game is moving in the right direction, cannot wait to play it. could help out with stats if you like. currently doing my own stats for afl evolution 2019

Thanks mate - has been slow going the past month but still progressing.

Good afternoon, any update on how the game is progressing. could l get copy please to trial if possible

Been a while since I posted, so quick update. Still been really busy both at work and home, so just a few hours working on the game here and there over the last month. Slow progress.
The footy season rolling around always gets me fired up though and we're getting close now.
Make the Crowies your 2nd team - the more i love the footy, the more i find myself thinking about Premiership Coach and everything that I still want to build here.

Hey Greenville just wondering if theres any new updates? love your work.

Delay on the response says it all here really. Have made a little progress here and there in the past few months, but stalled at the minute. Sorry to say, is going to be the nature of it & not finding more than a couple of hours a week for development recently.
Intent is still there.

love your work... Just wondering if there was any progress?

Bad news is I've made zero progress in months - life is busy. Good news is I'm still here and keen to keep hacking away at it.

I've spoken to a couple of people on bigfooty who may be able to help with some dev work. Hopefully some fresh faces and a bit of enthusiasm can get things rolling.
