Ah, does it edit the database directly?

No it doesn't; it just tells you who is injured and for how long. If you enter in someone's name wrong it won't be able to tell how injury prone they are though, and that has odd flow-on effects to the players after that in the list.

Oh.

So basically if I entered it wrong, I could lose half a team for no apparent reason?

Indeed.

I might be able to code a failsafe in, telling you to GTFO if it can't find the player you're talking about.

PEWS, you've written the code for this entire cricsim thingy?

PEWS, you've written the code for this entire cricsim thingy?

I didn't make the program that actually simulates the cricket matches, but I made the program that created the player database we're using for it, and the program that controls injuries (for the CricSim version of this competition anyway).

 

[vcs]

Cool. Is it open-source?

Hey Cribbage, I know I've asked you this before, but do you do programming/development at Uni? Pretty sure you do IT of some sorts

Did a bit of IT despite my degree being in Economics but the vast majority of my programming knowledge is self taught. It's one of the few things in life I actually have a real knack for; I probably should've done more of it at uni and got some proper qualifications for it.
