Here’s the latest releases and updates from the Spordle PLAY platform

New Features

Team Grouping Type Setting
- A new Team Grouping Type setting is available in the SCHEDULING tab of organization settings.
Pool Selection for Game Generation
- Users can now select a specific pool, all teams, or a cross-pool option when generating games.
- The Pool Name is displayed for each team during the review step.
Enhanced Scheduling Matrix
- The scheduling matrix now supports multiple pools, with pools clearly labeled and divided into pool-specific quadrants.
- New Features:
  - Filter to highlight teams in a specific pool.
  - Clear button to reset the grid.
  - Recalculate the button to regenerate balanced matchups.
  - Improved tabbing functionality and added team logos.
Pool Analysis in Schedules
- The ANALYZE modal now includes a pool filter, allowing users to review the number of games teams have in different pools.
Pool Display in Game Lists
- Pool names are displayed above teams in game lists and schedule cards, including the scheduler game list and draft game cards.

A new property allows schedules to be hidden from public pages.
This setting is public by default for new schedules and can be updated when editing a schedule.
Non-public schedules are labeled with a "Non-Public" chip.

The “Use Schedule Category” option is now enabled by default when adding teams to a schedule, aligning with common user behavior.

Logos for organizations and teams synced from SID can no longer be changed in Play. Users must update logos directly in SID.

When using the Team Import modal with the SCHEDULE option, only schedules from the current organization are displayed.

Fixed the issue where the clear button under the signature would not work. The redundant reset button has also been removed.

Resolved the issue where the ForeThought bubble could not be hidden on mobile devices.

Added missing French translations for the Scoring Mode and Penalty Mode settings in organization settings.

Removed the crashing button for creating manual suspensions from the suspension list. Manual suspensions can currently only be created from a game. A proper implementation will be added in the future.
