Automated Event Creation #25

Closed viridis closed 10 years ago

viridis commented 10 years ago

Potentially based on last week’s list.

Drew wants a system where he does not waste a lot of time anymore making just the normal mundane events every single week. Large quantities of ET’s GMC’s and Sealed Shrines should be able to be made with just a few clicks. Suggestions: We can make a list of ‘favourite’ events which are just event templates, somewhere easily accessible. You can select a list of favourite events and can just mass create them. Another way is to select a checkbox for ‘recurring event’ once you are creating an event. This way once the event closes, it will automatically create an instance of a new event, with the same parameters as the ‘just closed’ event.

Nim: I think the recurring events thing will work only if it’s very fixed in timings & frequency, like every Monday 12pm. Another possible implementation is parsing a paragraph of text if the interface for making events is too tedious.

From what i understood we can literally grab 100% copies of the previous week. If times go slightly off, Drew should be able to edit them by going to the event and just changing it. If the property-changing of events is not a huge hassle, this will not be of huge impact i predict. I would indeed go for a 100% copy - no questions asked - … and tweaking is for an Admin.

Yeah if there’s really minor changes every week, recurring method definitely works out!
