Dealer Scripts / Re: Vul NT vs nv NT opener script

1NT vul/nv Opener
I was wanting to set a teaching table so that the script for NT opener was either 10-12 OR 13-15 based on vulnerability, but was unable to do so. At best I could get every other hand to be vul and wasn’t able to adjust script accordingly. This meant that I had to discard every other hand.
Here is what I did find out regarding this: There is a known bug in the system when trying to set up a practice bidding/teaching table and setting the vulnerability. This has been identified and commented on by others trying to do similar vul /nv settings.
But I did find an acceptable work around for me.
I wanted to be NS players. When first sitting at new teaching table the NS hands are NV. If this is desired, then, under Deal Source/Advanced, enter the desired script under the ‘Use This Input for the Dealer Program” and click on the box. (I used script specific to only N hand being 1NT opener with nvul range). Under Dealer do not have any position designated as Dealer (u will have to go in here and unclick all 4 positions). Click on the X in upper right corner to close the box. I now find that all subsequent redeals had N as Dealer, NS nvul and my desired hand type and hcp range for 1NT opener worked every time.
When wanting NS to be VUL, if just setting up table, redeal until have NS vul. Then under Deal Source/Advanced, enter the desired script (again I used script specific to N hand only but this time with vul opening range) under the ‘Use This Input for the Dealer Program” and make sure the Use this Input box is checked. Again under Dealer do not have any position designated as Dealer. Close the box. Again I found that all subsequent redeals had N as Dealer, NS Vul and my desired hand type and hcp range for 1NT opener worked every time.
Now I am able to practice bidding and responding to 1NT openers based on consistent vulnerability status without having to discard every other hand.
