My typing speed is about 1/3 what it usually is at this point, (though increasing in ability quickly) but in my field tests with RTools 2.0, there were a couple issues with a couple minor combinations of features not working fully yet, so build updates are slowly starting up again.
There are three bug fixes currently fixed in internal builds:
- WPN material requests (added in WER as of 4.0.6) no longer show as valid tournaments in RTools.
- A very specific situation (involving byes and a still-to-be-determined set of additional actions) occurred at an event here that prevented pairings from displaying at all during that round. This occurred because of some copypasta SQL code that wasn't exactly right for the job, and that code was fixed.
- The hooks for printing standings by pod are back in correctly.
Note that there are a couple things to do before 2.0 shifts from alpha releases to beta:
- Add in a tiny bit of code to make some settings.ini stuff that I changed with 2.0 backwards-compatible.
- Modify the tournament listings to not list events far in the future. (the place I test at this past week had 20 events before the one they wanted, as every event they were holding up to the Scars of Mirrodin Game Day was already entered into their tournament listings)
- Make some of the 2.0 restrictions optional. Namely, I'm probably going to make a settings option that will invoke the timer restrictions currently in the program as of alpha 4, just so that when you want to use EPIC when it's launched that the ability is there. Otherwise, there doesn't need to be quite as much in terms of restrictiveness. I'm going to keep the one-pairings-window paradigm, though.
- I also want to have 2.0 shipped with EPIC 100% ready from the side of RTools. I can pretty much make it work on every step up until the actual web work right now, and I really should get the networking stuff taken care of now, when I don't have to worry about the actual movement of data and web issues.
I'll put A6 up in the next day or two; 2.0 looks to be an October release currently, heavily dependent on job prospects and hand conditioning.
