4 team support? #172

Closed flashmandv closed 4 years ago

flashmandv commented 4 years ago

I want to use this component to render tournament rooms. In each room there can be up to 4 players. As I can see - this component only supports 2 players (teams). If I try to create third player inside the team array, it simply does not work:

teams: [ ["Player 1", "Player 2", "Player 9"], ..

Is there any way I can achieve that?

Only head-to-head matches are supported.

Depending on how matches are run in the "rooms", you could just seed the bracket accordingly, e.g. put first 4 players to the first positions in the bracket, and make the bracket size to be ROOMS*4. However, this will only let the players in the room play single elimination, i.e. it wouldn't allow everyone in the room to play against each other before advancing, that would be a different tournament format, not part of brackets.
