Hi,
I don't know if I am outdated or overlooked. If there is no such constraints mentioned below , may I suggest it.
Some time we may not want the students to move so far away even when the rooms are in the same building. I limited the choices of rooms of activities by manually .ark a set of suitable rooms in the space constraints. The choices are highly based on the distance between rooms but it may be difficult for the users to mention the distance in many ways in the program.
What if we introduce a coordinate system for the rooms so that the program can calculate the horizontal and vertical distance between rooms? And thus set the space constraints based on the calculated distances?
I don't know if this is a practical idea.
Unfortunately, it looks very difficult. I think it might have been suggested in the past, in another form. But I will add it (maybe again) in the TODO.
I fear that will be very difficult to enter the data, at least in our building. We have some rooms very close to each other (in fact "next" door; sadly a wall between), but the distance is very large. Because there is no direct way and you must go a large loop way.
