Create a new game manually

Alejandro edited this page Feb 19, 2021 · 2 revisions
  1. Click on "+ New game" in the menu at the top of the page
    • The New Game dialog should pop up. "Manual" should already be selected.
  2. For each of the two teams
    • Specify the team name. Team names must be unique
    • Specify each player's name. Player names must be unique per team. Check the "Starter" checkbox if the player should start the game, and uncheck it if they are a substitute
    • If you want to add a player, click on the + button at the bottom of the team entry section
    • If you want to remove a player, click on the red X next to the "Starter" checkbox
  3. Click on the "Choose file" button to load a packet
    • Packets must be either a Microsoft Word document (*.docx) or a JSON file (*.json).
      • Word documents are sent to a parsing service. If the service is unable to read the file, an error message will appear. If it couldn't parse the file, it will explain why and tell the user where in the packet the issue is.
      • JSON files should come from parsing a Microsoft Word document with Yet Another Packet Parser.
  4. Click Start. If there are issues with the game (duplicate team names, player names, no packet loaded), the dialog will not close.
