chaplain Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 Hi,I am fairly new to the whole database model design theory. I understand most ( i think) of the relations between entitys but am strugging with my design - Can anybody help suggest how best to do this...I have four entitys.[b]games[/b] -> game_id (PK)[b]maps[/b] -> map_id (PK)[b]locations[/b] -> location_id (PK)[b]location_types[/b] -> location_type_id (PK)What I need to do is...1) I can have a number of games. Each game will relate to only one map.2) The location entity can contain locations for all maps so a location needs to know the map it belongs to.3) The location_type needs to be related to both a map and a location. It will be possible for different locations types to exists for particular maps.1 and 2 are quite straight forward, its where I add in the location_type where problems start to occur.Please help - this is really frustraing meThanksDom Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/31357-help-with-database-model-design/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
