armandop Posts: 32	Posted 22:25 Mar 05, 2015 \| Hi Prof. I'm a little confused. For the extra credit. Edit Runway, edit Stage, and remove checkpoint, I thought these were hard requirements for previous homeworks. Are there different? Thank you

If they do, you should not remove checkpoints from students as the checkpoints may actually be from a different plan.

Thank you As DGUHATH said, they were not really required, but if you had implemented them anyway, you'll receive the extra credits in HW7.

If they do, you should not remove checkpoints from students as the checkpoints may actually be from a different plan. Since my plan doesn't share any checkpoint with other plans. But let's say student1 has plan-1. And administrator deleted checkpoint from plan1, it will also reflect in the students copy because he is using plan1. In other words, removing this checkpoint from plan_checkpoints table, also removes it from students copy of plan, who was using plan1. This is correct right?

That's correct, though I don't think it's really necessary to remove the checkpoint from student plans. Last edited by cysun at 11:45 Mar 06, 2015.
