Heats show almost empty heats

Question

For various star groups, I have the heat divisions set to sprint numbers on a non-manual setting. However, a lot of heats have been created in which only one competitor has been placed. How is this possible? Or is there perhaps a button that I have missed that ensures heats are re-divided (correctly)?

Would you mind posting the link to the competition so that I can see exactly what is going wrong with you?

The competition in question is: 'https://www.athletics.app/wedstrijd/main/7741/'.

I have already manually moved some competitors to other heats and deleted some heats. I realize that it might have been clearer to you if I had left it as it was, but given the remaining preparation time, that was not possible.

Do you happen to remember in which Startgroups/Heats this problem occurred? Do you remember the day you manually corrected this? Then I can load the data from that day into the test environment and find out exactly what went wrong, so that we can at least prevent this from happening next time and make Athletics.app a little bit better again :)

Apologies for the late response. This problem occurred, among others, with the girls in category B (40 meters). This was corrected on November 30. I also think it has to do with the setting for the heats, which were set to "manual" for the categories in question.

Answer 1

If you have the series division set to 'Manual series division', it is possible that empty lanes will appear and sometimes even almost empty heats. This occurs, for example, when an athlete is removed from a heat. An empty lane/space then appears in the place where the athlete was assigned. So if you change many athletes from the startgroup, you can create almost completely empty heats. You can remove the empty lanes yourself by moving your mouse over the lane and clicking on the red trash can icon.
