Hy @popz73,
Thank you for looking into this. I hope you're not going to take this the wrong way, but I don't think that implementing this is a good idea. There are several reasons for this:
Adding the ability to create custom challenges kinda implies the ability to accept them. This WAS actually implemented in the game about 5 years ago and some remnants of that code is still there, although marked with @Obsolete
(see ChallengesFragment). This didn't work out very well because:
What we really need here is way of actually automagically matching a user that has issued an automatch request with any open challenges that have been issued by other players, thus reducing their queuing time.
In any case, I would rather we don't compound the problem by allowing yet more people to issue open challenges instead of using automatch.
ok I understand
Hi Alex, For game creation, today the app supports
It lacks the 3rd option, which I believe is the most used (certainly the one I use the most): the possibility to issue open challenges with custom settings (equivalent to the Custom/Create feature )
I started looking into this while submitting pr #58 , but wanted to check with you for the approach: -> what about having a 3rd button for this? we would have
"Custom" would be a mix of the two others - a settings picker similar to Challenge, but a subscription model and "open challenge" card view similar to the ones after submitting an Automatch.
