Rename and delete functions, subfolders

Post by dreamtheatervt »

The PDS should have delete and rename functions. I name my plays in a shorthand system based on the language system I used when I coached HS football, and I tend to make small mistakes when I type in names, and it would be nice to be able to rename the play without having to save it as a separate file, and then search for the old file to delete. A delete play function would also be nice, because right now I have to find the play I want to delete, get it' sID number, find that number in my Plays folder... it's a pain.

Someone else brought it up, and I'm going to second it. I would like to be able to create subfolders so I can keep my plays organized by basic offense type. That way if I want to add edit a play for my wing-T offence, I can just go to my wing-T folder instead of trying to wade through a sea of plays. I had over 53,000 plays for FBPro, and that was a game with a 64 play limit playbook. I 'm sure its only a matter of time before I have an absurd number on here as well, now that I'm starting to get a hold of the PDS.

If this goes in the wishlist forum, I apologize.

Create a playbook for each formation that you want to save. The team playbooks can then import what they need and stay organized. Having 1000 plays in a playbook is not recommended.

I for one would like to be able to save plays in a directory of my choice like we could in FBPRO98. One person playing the game with only stuff they create is not an issue. However, in a true league with 32 teams and 32 different sets of play books, profiles and all the plays that correspond with that, that is way to much to be located in just the one directory.

Please simplify the saving procedures for plays and playbooks and profiles and give us the option to save where we want!!!!

Also agree with the initial message in this thread.
