hi all,

just starting using FET this morning and Im very impressed so far.

but I have a problem.

I have to time table across 2 campus sites, meaning that staff have to remain on the same site for a whole day.

Ive set up 2 buildings, to mimic my sites and set 'max building changes per day for all teachers' to 0 to hopefully stop FET swapping their site during a day. but its ignoring it.

any ideas?

thanks in advance.

That is correct. You also assign the buildings to each room? (check fet->data->rooms)

if the first tip doesn't help, please sent me your fet file, because fet shouldn't ignore it, but i don't have an idea why fet ignore it in your case.

Maybe you didn't add space constraints and the activities are not assigned to rooms.

cheers for the reply... I was being stupid...

Id not specified some of the subjects to the right rooms (any of them in this case) so it was just picking up that slot as it was available.

awesome software, saving me so much time after the learning curve!
