Sommerville27 Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 I am trying to create a cup competition with 270 teams competing in it, I type 270 into number of teams in competition, but when I click off it (i.e. select something else or something) it changes to 256. I managed to fix it in the xml but its still pretty annoying! Does anyone know why it does this? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KronikAlkoholik Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 256 is a typical 1 byte limit though I doubt it's a limit of how many can compete in a cup. Have you set from which divisions the competitors are coming from and certain that they are 270? Even if that was the case I'm pretty sure it should give you some warning when you lose focus instead of just jumping back to 256. EDIT: It's of course not only a Byte limit but a power of two so if is a good number for a knockout tournament. Check also where you set how the rounds are played in the cup and ensure you add 270 teams to the cup. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cadijk van Kaarhandel Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 I'd similar when trying to set 24 x Groups. It kept automatically changing back to 20. Guess its just a limitation of the editor(?) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sommerville27 Posted November 4, 2010 Author Share Posted November 4, 2010 yeah, must in place to make it easier for less experienced editors. as i said i edited it in the xml and as long as i dont touch that box in the editor it remains ok. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sommerville27 Posted November 4, 2010 Author Share Posted November 4, 2010 Cool.Is this for your Scottish update? yeah, almost got it sorted out now although I expect there might be a few issues to resolve that I won't know about unitl I test it in the game.

Cadijk van Kaarhandel Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 Aye it was relatively straight forward, just hae to tweak a few things and add in some Award rules. Need to straighten out promotion from one of the leagues but all-in-all not too painful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legionaire Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 Just open the xml and manually edit the number. Or, open editor/data/format/rule group/basic cup settings.xml You will see something like this <!-- number of teams --> <record> <flags id="field" value="number_teams"/> <string id="name" value="Number Of Teams In Competition"/> <flags id="type" value="integer"/> <string id="hint" value="The number of teams in this competition[COMMENT: Competition editor; field hint]"/> <integer id="width" value="100"/> <integer id="default_value" value="64"/> <integer id="min_value" value="2"/> <integer id="max_value" value="256"/> increase 256 to a big number You can alos edit basic league playoffs.xml to remove those limit when creating league promotion relegation playoff Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
