One nice addition I've already made for version 1.03 is a Command Line feature. As I entered mock drafts into Master Draft (for analysis purpose), I found myself wanting faster/easier ways to work (being a pretty fast typist). What I came up with is a simple command line tool that lets you draft and un-draft players from the draft board by typing commands as opposed to using the mouse.
For example, if I want to draft Randy Moss to the current pick (for the current owner), I can simply type "d randy moss" into the command line and hit 'Enter'. As long as there is only one Randy Moss in the players list, he is instantly drafted.
For now there are only 3 supported commands: Draft Player (d), Return Player (r), and Return Pick (rpk).
Draft Player
Using the "d" command, I can specify a player to draft, and optionally an owner and pick to draft the player to. My above example simply drafted Randy Moss, but I can also specify an owner and pick to draft him to. For example:
Code: Select all
d randy moss, team 1, 2.03
Code: Select all
d randy moss, team 3
Code: Select all
d randy moss, , 2.02
Return Player
Code: Select all
r Randy Moss
Return Pick
Code: Select all
rpk 1.01
These simple commands let me fly through a mock draft, much faster than if I were using my mouse to find the players to draft. I hope to add more commands to the list as needs are identified. For now though, these commands should be plenty to get started with.
If anyone has any other suggestions for this or other features in the next version, please let me know.
