Hashtag Basketball: How to turn on the new Fantrax Matchup Planner
🕑 Added 2023-03-07 12:24:21 +0000 UTCHey everyone,
This has been in the works for a while, but I'm no longer waiting for Fantrax to add scoreboard data to their API, so I've created a version of the matchup planner for Fantrax category leagues that lets you manually update the scoreboard data yourself.
It's very much still in beta, but you can switch it on and have a play around with it by following these instructions.
If you go to the settings of you imported Fantrax leagues on the Hashtag Basketball dashboard you'll see an option to select your team:
Once you select a team it'll enable this tool (only for H2H category leagues right now):
Since Fantrax doesn't have an API to pull scoreboard data you'll need to manually enter the scoreboard data, which you can see on the live scoreboard page in your league:
You can enter it here, and click the update scoreboard button to save it in the tool:
If you haven't used this tool before it's worth reading the user guide available for Yahoo and ESPN leagues since it goes into more detail in using it: https://www.patreon.com/posts/how-i-like-to-73455334
Some things to keep in mind when using this version:
- Treat the update scoreboard button as a save button since you'll need to click it to save any changes made to the current scoreboard and changes made to your and your opponent's roster
- Since FGM and FGA data isn't available on Fantrax, I have a calculation in the background estimating the values based on the day of the week and %s you've entered. This is then used to calculate the projected %s for you and your opponent
- Remember to keep the days already played upto date, since this is used to calculate the projected after tally
- If you come across any issues please let me know! I'll be using this pretty heavily over the next few days to iron out any issues that I may have missed
Chat soon,
Joey
