What I'm Working On: Player Icons

I hope to add player icons to the next update of Poker Copilot. A set of rules will decide whether a player is a rock, a fish, a whale, an eagle, a calling station, etc. The icon will be available to show in the HUD and the "Player Summary". There will be default rules. You can edit the rules, either for all tables, or for specific table types and sizes, such as "No Limit Hold'em 6-max".

Here's a mockup of the player icons rules editor:

The icons in this mockup are placeholders - they will of course actually look like rocks, fish, etc.

I envisage editing a rule to be somewhat similar to editing formulas in Apple's "Numbers" app (although without the cumbersome syntax):

Suggestions are welcome!

these are awesome. I've been waiting for this for a while.

The one thing i would like to see is villian stats (at least vpip and agg) for each position. If they are in the CO, it's more useful to know they play 50 percent of their hands from the CO than to know they play 30 percent of all their hands.

Steve, what's that your using to make the mockups?

love this kind of post with some new features! If you're gonna add icons on the HUD, Will the nickname of the player could be added too?

Wow. I do this manually with FTP's color coding and notes with a basic ruleset off the top of my head, so you once again show your creativity and sense of what it is we really need! Great idea with the custom settings!

@Joram, Thanks, I hadn't seen those links and they are helpful.

@argash: Balsamiq Mockups. Well worth checking out.
