Ok peoples.
so far so good with the new interface. An issue yesterday but once again today the races for Rockhampton have been pushed way back by one race. So there has to be a way to update the QPick List, while not double betting anything already processed.
So lets carry the discussion forward a little bit. When the meetings are pushed back then the count down timer to race start reflects that the qpick load is wrong. So in that case I want the 1 minute prior to race setting to trigger the BA excel spreadsheet to see that. Not trigger the spreadsheet. Update the QPick list. And the proceed for the rest of the afternoon in the correct race order picking up the [now delayed] races at one min before their [now delayed] Start time.
Sounds pretty simple to me but I dont know how to do it ....... unless, Gary, how about the timers always check that the countdown=the correct time +/- a few seconds to allow for lags and so on. If the current QPick start time, and the Countdown timers agree, then the spreadsheet process's as normal. If however the Load Race is set for 1 minute, and the time to race is 2 mins or more, the BA knows that the QPick list is wrong. So by default .....
1. DOES NOT TRIGGER THE SPREADSHEET.
2. Re uploads the current QPick List.
3. Then, on the basis of the now corrected list, triggers @ 1 min [or whatever is set], does the same comparison. Then decides whether to execute the bets, or further update the QPick list.
Any thoughts?
