Bygfoot 1.9.0 :: Brazil League XML

[Oki]

Hi,

I'm from Brazil, and i'd like to make the Team list for brazilian teams. In version 1.9 the structure have modified so, my question is "What i need to edit to make team files for brazil league?"

thanks for your offer. i didn't expect to receive one so soon, so i didn't write a country/league editing tutorial yet. i promise to do it today, though.

Hi,

I'm writing the XML Files for 1.9, but i don't know how can i make the promotion for next league.

e.g: On Brazilian league the eight better teams on the season play and the top two teams advance to next league.

e.g 2:
away/home
winner 1: team 1 x team 8
winner 2: team 2 x team 7
winner 3: team 3 x team 6
winner 4: team 4 x team 5

away/home
winner 1: winner1 x winner 4
winner 2: winner2 x winner 3

away/home
winner1 x winner 2

The last two team advance. I found on HOW-TO:

So, the tags available for cup rounds are:
- home_away
- replay
- neutral
- round_robin_number_of_groups
- round_robin_number_of_advance
- round_robin_number_of_best_advance

My question is "One of this tags could solve the problem?". In all england examples we don't have this kind of case.

this sounds like promotion games. you make a league without prom_rel_elements for promotion, only a promotion game element. you have to write the cup format for the promotion games, something like

Code: Select all

<cup>
  <name>Promotion Games</name>
  <short_name>Prom. Gam.</short_name>
  <symbol>flag_br.png</symbol>
  <sid>brazil_prom_games</sid>
  <type>national</type>

  <cup_rounds>
    <cup_round>
      <home_away>1</home_away>
    </cup_round>
    <cup_round>
      <home_away>1</home_away>
    </cup_round>
    <cup_round>
      <home_away>1</home_away>
    </cup_round>
  </cup_rounds>

  <choose_teams>
    <choose_team>
      <number_of_teams>8</number_of_teams>
      <start_idx>1</start_idx>
      <end_idx>8</end_idx>
    </choose_team>
  </choose_teams>

</cup>

there are two problems: 1. you can't tell the program that the last two teams advance, only the winner advances 2. cup pairings are written randomly, not 1 - 8, 2 - 6 etc.

i'm going to have to introduce tags for these issues, i guess.

i've added a tag <prom_games_number_of_advance> to the <prom_games> structure, so you can specify now that the two teams from the final of the promotion games advance (see also the howto file.

use the update script bygfoot-update, it's menu-driven and should be fairly easy to use. it's shipped with the official Bygfoot packages but you can get the latest version also here (you might have to do a chmod a+x bygfoot-update after downloading it).

Gyözö,
I'll download the latest version, and i'll try to update my xml files, using this new issue.

i've added a tag <prom_games_number_of_advance> to the <prom_games> structure, so you can specify now that the two teams from the final of the promotion games advance (see also the howto file.

Well, this is the most speedy correction i've seemed on a software, hehehe, thanks for correction. The secondary divisions from Brazilian Teams thanks you!

don't be too cheerful, the new tag doesn't mean anything regarding the game internals, because season ending stuff isn't implemented yet i just added the possibility to use that tag, the consequences of a league using that kind of promotion will have to get implemented later
