AAAA League KML Replacement

Well been looking at what we use for the League which is KML - Its served its purpose but is nuke based and the user level access does not link well with the core AAAA Website..........

So have started work on project to replace KML - I have checked all existing modules and none meet our needs so I am starting from scratch - this does not effect anything we are doing now this is for the future but I need to get read now...............

Stage 1
I have started work on the join AAAA League at present this is webform based and its data is not much use to me its not usable so I am converting this and this will be back bone to each clan in the League want to join etc.............

Will keep you posted but should have this finished soon

Happy shooting - Kill em ALL and kill em again

Re: AAAA League KML Replacement

Hi ok being going round in circles with this - mainly as could not find the best solution and my own effort hit a brick wall so having tryd a few off the shelf solutions I started again on my own effort............

Ok at present it dont look much and very basic but I have now all the core functions working within our AAAA site here so completely nothing to do with the KML...................

Core Functions

Able to run Multiple different types of Leagues not just MOHAA but also could run MOHSH Leagues

Able to change scoring method for different types of League and able to add penalty points for things like we have discussed before like failing to attend booked matches.

Team Player management for clan admin level so they can add / drop players

Just about all we have now on KML but will be available to use by Clan admins / War Arrangers with ease here on the main AAAA site

So at present it looks a bit crap but all the core functions are working I just need to spend some time on the displays and build some menus and permission management but all simple to do so wont take me long.

The New League base will be called AAAA Deathserver League

See if you can access this link (for Clan Admins and moderators) but user can use some of the options

Create Clan -: http://www.mohaaaa.co.uk/AAAAMOHAA/node/add/leaguesite-team
Create clan Player -: http://www.mohaaaa.co.uk/AAAAMOHAA/node/add/leaguesite-player
Create Clan Match -: http://www.mohaaaa.co.uk/AAAAMOHAA/node/add/leaguesite-match
View League Standings -: http://www.mohaaaa.co.uk/AAAAMOHAA/league_standings
View Outstanding Matches http://www.mohaaaa.co.uk/AAAAMOHAA/match_list
View Played Matches http://www.mohaaaa.co.uk/AAAAMOHAA/played_matches

As I said its not very good at present - But I can sort all the layout - Also I need to build a match result view at present I just did a quick summary table to make sure the point system was working and yes will be same 3 points for a win one for a draw and so on...................

The Match Result screen will show like KML so screen shots and break down of round scores - all the functions are all ready added so if you create a match and then edit it you can upload the screenshots and scores I just not got round to creating the view to see it yet............

Also the Teams will be linked to the existing Clan database http://www.mohaaaa.co.uk/AAAAMOHAA/content/clans-mohaa So insted of having to enter all your clan details you will just need to add your squad players that needs a bit more work but all easy enough......

So have a quick play and feed back but bare in mind I have not done any workon the layout its just showing that I could get thecore functions working here as we wanted........

Also need to Create a new AAAA Deathserver Page where we will have all this and menus and displays with how to join and so on ............

Happy shooting - Kill em ALL and kill em again

Re: AAAA League KML Replacement

Hi Tom ok Its done but I think we can move the clans over so we can see the data and then make it better - I have deleted the 2 test matches and I ma now creating the players for RA clan.............

So So Far I have Created WOV and MEGA both only got one member so that needs updating I will finish off RA and then we need to create Ango clan and members................

many thanks !!! - The Clan Team info is basic as I hope to link to the existing Clan Database so all the clan info will come from their apart from players

Happy shooting - Kill em ALL and kill em again

Re: AAAA League KML Replacement

Ok well this has been a major bitch for me

For over 12 months just wanted to do a front end for the league and I could not so we just kept on going with KML....... dont get me wrong KML is great but it was not part of AAAA and without me hounding the creator their was so much I wanted to do but could not but at the same time could not find a better way to do it................

For over the past 12 months I could not have kept it going without the help of Tom from LKW so many thanks Tom Beer Beer Beer
Having made massive milestones on the Map and mod dataabase projects on AAAA I wanted to try again as I had recently try'd another 5 solutions to replace the League on KML solution which all failed and TBH I was giving up and frustrated with myself as I could resolve so many issues

Anyway I am now shutting down the KML on AAAA and going live on my latest effort...........

Its Very far from ready but I need to go live on it now to see what is the good the bad and the ugly.............

The user interface is crap at present as not spent much time on it as I needed the core workings to work as so many of my efforts got so far in the past and I had to scrap them as my skills dry'd up and I wasted so much time trying to resolve simply issues..........

Anyway ALL the core functions work now but yeh I mad some mistakes on things I thought would work.........................

http://www.mohaaaa.co.uk/AAAAMOHAA/content/aaaa-mohaa-deathserver-league

The current main display is NOT finished and TBH was a quick effort to see what was working and what was not...........

I think the first issue on this display is I attempted to display ALL Future Leagues on one page and then the USER filters what they what to see.........NOT so sure now and think I need to split the displays up ?????????? But thats all it is a display and thats the least of my worries at present..............

For the Current AAAA Custome OBJ League all data has been transfered and entered to this new effort................

Now I have the data input I can work on the displays - some bits are ok others crap.............

The played matches View is crap as done no work on that its just a dump of all the data but thats on my list to do and will sort..........

What I need now is feed back on what you want and what you dont like..........

Anyway off to bed but I will sort all the remaining issues out and make it better - hoped to get more done tonight but as you know was a major on the hosting side tonight

Happy shooting - Kill em ALL and kill em again

Re: AAAA League KML Replacement

Ok we are all live on this now have updated all the links and revamped it a bit more - Also now the total scores for the rounds are auto calculated so 2 less fields to enter..........

I am not sure on if I should auto calculate the away team round score for all 4 rounds so in other words you just enter the home team score say as 5 then that must mean the away team score is 15 and so on..........................

Happy shooting - Kill em ALL and kill em again
