Update Universe every 14 days

Hi,

Running AddUniverse(CoarseSelectionFilter); - how would I be able to set it so the universe updates once every 14 days?

Hi Aaron,

There are a few approaches:

You can create a scheduled universe selection model, please see this documentation entry for more information. The difference/drawback is that the selection function can only take datetime as the input - see this example algorithm (Python) or this C# example.
You can use a flag (as outlined by Link in this documentation post) in your coarse selection function. This is probably more applicable to your particular case.
