Hi,
This checker works very well but I would like an addition if possible please.
https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC79A7X/28938
The challenge is called "Can you type in a straight line"

The aim is to fill at least one row, one column or one diagonal on the DT grid with 9 different cache types.
The checker works fine for those who qualify and the grid output is excellent.

However for those that don't qualify it is not so good. A number have contacted us to ask if they can find out what they need to do to qualify.

So my request is that there is an additional output created. A 81 DT grid with each spot showing the cache types for that spot. I have seen something like this before although I can not recall where. This would mean people could fairly easily check what they need to complete the challenge.

Is this something that can be easily done?

Thanks

Bill

At least it is possible to make a separate tool which displays them all but even then it may be too difficult to find the easiest way to meet the requirements.

Thanks.
I do understand that it may still be difficult to decide what is needed. However I do think it will be much easier than now.

Thanks very much arisoft. That looks great.
I wondered about using it as a stand alone or trying to get it added the existing checker.

But then I had another idea.

I also have another challenge cache in the publication queue.
This would benefit from the same checker as it is a D / T / type challenge to find 250 different combinations. At the moment that one has a cloned checker attached but this output woild be much better.

It is GC7HMG3 with the checker 38896. I cloned this from another of your multi-test checker V2.

Could you use the new one’s output for this please with the top window of fulfil/does not fulfil including the total count out of 250 both for success and failure. I would prefer the grid output to the list output for this. And the added benefit is I can point people struggling with GC79A7X to this one to help them see where their gaps are.

That would be excellent :)

Thanks again

Bill/Brad

Well... this tool is actually a D/T/Type challenge checker without possibility set requested number of combinations.

It would be easiest to add "checker capabilities" to this tool. It is just the number of caches required. In this case the number of icons on the table.

Here is another checker for your new challenge.

Which one do you want to use?

Thanks arisoft.
The second checker appears to do the same thing and give the output I was looking for. I am happy to use it.
Thanks again

Ok, someone with enough powers should remove the extra checker
