Substitutions

[im4ohst8]

If you can add the enhancement to turn off the running clock, I would like to be able to see all of the roster players listed in Coach mode so that I don't have to worry about substitutions and can easily get to any player to assign stats, much like you would do using a scorebook. Obviously with the clock not running, one would not be tracking minutes played, etc.

We have both of these features on our enhancement list for a future update. Thank you.

In game mode it would be very handy if a long-press on the player number would allow me to select the sub. In coach mode it would be nice to be able to click on the player and be able to sub that player ( a long press on the number would mimic that action already noted ).

Thank you for the suggestions --- we will add them to our list.

It has been our perception that a simple list of numbers "IN" and "OUT" listed in the sub screen with all visible. Then allow a straight drag and drop. Our biggest problem on subs is the scrolling and select/unselect required for each sub. So each sub requires a minimum of 2 touches, possibly more. If I could just drag the new "in" number over the old "out" number, OR clear and pick from a visible list, that would be helpful.

There is a Clear button when you go to the sub screen. That is actually what we recommend doing when creating subs is just tapping clear, then tapping each player that you see on the court.

But to the above Dogbb's point, this approach takes 8 clicks. This is by far the most aggravating part of the app. It is awesome app, but fixing this, or I should say making it easier, to sub players would make this app PERFECT!

I like the idea of a long-press to sub out player.

I mostly favor the original idea of somehow showing whole team for ease, and quickness, of selecting players, without worrying about ensuring you are staying up to speed with the substitutions.

As of a few releases ago, we actually do allow selecting from the entire list of players. You do not have to do the subs if you do not want to. It requires an iPad (so there is screen space), but as long as you are using an iPad, you can tap any player in either lineup at any time, and enter scoring information for that player.

If you are selecting a player not currently "on the court", then it will mean minutes played and "combo reports" are potentially wrong, but that is the tradeoff you would make.

Thorbach, if it is more than one sub at a given time I have found the easiest method is to tap sub, clear, then tap the 5 players on the floor. It is quicker than trying who to tap out and who to tap in.

Is there a way to keep the clock running while I'm subbing players?
In our league, the only time the clock is stopped is during time outs.

thanks.
