'Session is full' after participant drop out

#1 by ldnlab

Hi everyone,

I'm running a 3-participant task on Prolific and have been experiencing an issue with replacing dropouts. For example, if the 3 slots are filled on Prolific, and one of the participants drops out, a new participant can take up the newly-opened slot on Prolific, but is not able to take their place in the task; they see 'session is full'. On the oTree monitor tab, I can still see the current status of the player who has left, even though they have returned the study on Prolific, and presumably have closed the task window. I've been reading the documentation, particularly the sections on group_by_arrival_time, but I can't seem to fix this problem. Any tips are appreciated, thanks.
