The AI could not set my fantasy hockey draft rankings

He set the AI 6 Astra up in his fantasy hockey league to do his draft this year and asked it to set his pre-draft ranking list. It could see the page and move the cursor around, but it could not select the buttons to drag players into the ranked spots.

This one went wrong. Read what happened so you don’t hit the same problem.

How it works

  1. Sets the AI 6 Astra up in his fantasy hockey league
  2. Asks it to set the pre-draft ranking list
  3. It sees the page and moves the cursor around
  4. It cannot select the buttons to drag players into the ranked spots

Why it’s worth knowing

The agent could see the draft page and move the cursor, but the simple drag that sets the rankings is where it got stuck.
