Variable to show last buy-in time/level?
(1/1)
kungfauxn00b:
Hey, firstly – this software is AWESOME!!! Unitl now, I've found everything I needed, so thank you!!
I'm looking for a variable to show the last time and/or level a buy-in is available? I know I have rebuy/addonTimeLeft but let's say it's a full freezout but you can buy-in until end of L6 – how do I show that?
My gut feeling is that it's not avilable as the Buy-in section doesn't have a field for last level (like the rebuys and add-on sections).
If I've just missed it – my bad! ::) Any advice is massively appreciated!

Correct. The TD doesn't support the same restrictions for buy-ins. While it seems perfectly reasonable to me, I can't recall anyone ever requesting it as a feature.

Thanks for confirming. 👍🏼 Strange that no one else has needed it as most, if not all, tournaments I play in have a late reg time/level. Although, I mostly play ones that have at least 1 rebuy/addon. 🤷🏼♂️ I think I have a work-around by using the rebuy or addon field and hiding it from the layout. Maybe set it to something like where maxaddons=99 then hide? I'll give it a bash tonight.
Thanks for getting back to me 👍🏼

Obviously you can manually limit how many folks can buy-in. You can easily hard-code that into the layout, too, to show your players. For example, in the Tournament Info cell from the default layout:
<buyin> Buy-in, <rebuyinfo>, <addoninfo>
You could change it to read:
<buyin> Buy-in until round 6, <rebuyinfo>, <addoninfo>
You could also do something like this to show how many rounds are left to buy-in:
<buyin> Buy-in (<expression text="max(7 - roundNum, 0)"> rounds left!), <rebuyinfo>, <addoninfo>
It's not dynamic, so you'll have to change this if you change the level at which buy-ins end.
