Repeating the Rounds

[Sheharyar Ahmed]

Dear ClassEx Team
I have developed a game with three treatments. Each treatment comprisies of several stages. I want to repeat each treatment for several rounds. I selected the number of rounds and linked it with the round(starting round) for each treatment but when I play the game (test participants) it only repeats the game for first treatment and not the second and the third. What could be the error here? 

I can further explain the problem if it is not understood properly. 

Looking forward to your help.

Regards

Dear Sheharyar, if you make your game public and let me know the name (and maybe the gameID) I can have a look.

Dear Marcus, 

I encountered a similar problem. In my game I want to use diffrent stages that are repeated 5 times. individually they run without problems, however when I pop them in the same game, the second repeted stage is always skipped. As a fix I thought that it might continue to count rounds for the game as a whole, so I opted to start the second stage at round 6, that however did not solve the problem. 

Would be awsome if you could help.

Hej Christoph, if you tell me the name and the ID of the game I can check what is the problem. Multiple loops are not possible. You can only have one loop per game. Best

Hey the game is called test risk, I changed it to public, but i dont know where I can't find the game id, but this is the link that comes up when i create a share link classex.uni-passau.de/bin/index.php?sharing=l4udvXi7jFpEBw04KQPsK1VN7DuR0G8xMUgl%2B6jBgcqwRWyiS1C6xqEowYAvwoLclutaNAxu3Fkvp3dMqonZUg%3D%3D   Please log in to your account before you use the link.

Dear Christoph,

thanks. I had a look. The problem is that you defined multiple loops which is possible but can lead to unexpeced behavior. That is why we ask people not to do it (see https://classex-doc.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Develop.html#rounds). Your problem arises from the fact that the multiple loops conflict with the automatic start element.

What you can do instead is: loop of 1 stage 10 times and in the first 5 rounds show some boxes and in the other 5 rounds other boxes.

Best, Marcus
