Dear all,
I am new to FED and I am learning to use it. I am very, very happy I found it!
For now, I have introduced 2 rooms (350 places and 36 places), one course (for a 350 students) and three seminars (for 25 students each), with different professors and no contains. I have tried to generate a schedule, to see how it works.
The program generates a schedule for each subgroups and for the whole year, but does not place neither course nor seminar in a room. What should I do?
Thank you!
You need to set room constraints. See FET -> Data -> Space constraints
Thank you for the reply!
I entered now the space contrains menu and added some unavailable time, and no it says:
Space constraint
Room not available
Weight (percentage)=100%
Room=R3
Not available at:
sambata 08:00;...
and does not assign the room to a course. How can I make the room available?
You need to use Room/Space constraints. FET won't assign rooms without those constraints.
Please maybe also read this: (I explain a few of that constraints there)

To make the room R3 available at sambata 08:00, remove or edit this not available space constraint.
To ensure that an activity takes place in a special room, use preferred room(s) or home room(s) constraints - like Volker said.
You have many examples, like the file Pedagogic High-School Tg. Mures, 2007-2008_sem1-d.fet (from Romania examples), or German secondary school 1, german_subact_constraints.fet. See the space constraints there.
Thank you!
