I would like the ablity to enter a quantity after selecting a person for an add-on. Here is my problem. My add-on value for my league is not fixed. A person can add-on between $1.00 to $25.00. So I configured the tournament manager to indicate that $1.00 equals 100 chips. If someone elects to add-on $20.00, then I have to run through the add-on process 20 times.

Now I see the problem with this. If you don't have my dilema having the extra step of entering a quantity might become a little annoying.

The solution might be to have an option to allow multiple add-ons or not when you configure your finances.

This may or may not work for you, but it sounded good in my head before I started typing.

Set the system to allow multiple addons and configure several different add-on amounts in the financial screen.

At first I was thinking:
$1.00
$5.00
$10.00
and the varying chips that each amount buys.

But then I figured, it'd be easy enough to enter a whole bunch of add-on options in the financial screen. If you didn't want to create one for EVERY dollar amount, then how about:
$1
$2
$5
$7
$10
$12
$15
$17
$20
$22
$25

When someone wants to add-on 2 bucks, choose it from the list. For 3 bucks, use a $2 and a $1.

For $14, add a $12 and a $2.

If you set up multiple add-on definitions though, I'd recommend exporting them to a config file so you could easily import them into your next tournament. It would be a pain to have to create them each time.

Thanks for the information. I just tried it and it works great.

You're welcome. That's what this forum is for.
