In checking for nooverlap I would like to check
the times (of course) but also a room code.

Could someone point me at the code (line) to
modify.  Basically, I don't mind 2 events
having the same time as long as they're in
different rooms.

What is the event field key you keep the room identifier in? The title field?

Actually I'm adding a field called 'roomcode'

I was changing the code: (line 21)
   foreach $as (@$all)
   {
      next if $as->{roomcode} != $roomcode;                           #don't check other rooms
      my (@astart, @aend);                                 #use new arrays for speed and memory

I had assumed that this change would only check for
overlap if the rooms were identical. I guess there's
more to it.

Considerably!

None of the event details are available in that plug-in's routine, it only deals with the schedule data itself which is stored separately. Each time a possible conflict was encountered the event details would have to be loaded for both the present event and the possible conflicting event. Only then could the necessary fields compared.
