Not yet in Asia, but that's because Europe is complicated. Napoleon is a bit of a busy beaver.

Oh cool, we are much more diverse than I thought!

I am probably going to work with overlapping regions which should make the issue less of a problem, but I am aware that this headache exists.

There are teams who work like this and merge files. It depends a bit on what you are doing. Data edits, can be done, but you need to have a 'master file' and add 'delta files' to it every time. If you use two master files and try to merge them, I think that you end up with two (the same) changes on an item. But maybe I am misunderstanding, so if you could elaborate a bit, please do so.

Out of curiosity, a small poll (I can't add one to the thread), where are you from if you want to disclose that? Nation only, no city or more asked. I have seen people from The Netherlands, France, Portugal, Austria, Australia, Norway and the UK (you are allowed to specify that ) in the thread so far. Curious who else are in here.

People, a request and also asking this as a common courtesy, if you are going to change someone's file and you run into issues, please use the file creator's thread for questions. Most editors don't mind and will gladly answer your question. Several good reasons for this: The creator will likely have more insight into the file than other people. It makes people aware whose original file it is you are editing and it is a friendly way of acknowledging the creator and letting other people know the file is usefull and is being used.

For the Iron Curtain for Austria, no, but that's because West Germany got a rebuild, while Austria will remain the same. Austria in the historical divergence sense though, well, they have quite a bit of teams, so there is more than enough opportunity for going much deeper than FM does right now.

Going from Level 1 Germany, Level 2 Oberliga Nord, Level 3 Verbandsliga Niedersachsen, Level 4 Landesliga Niedersachsen Ost, Level 5 Bezirksliga Hannover, Level 6 Kreisliga Hannover. If your local region is Niedersachsen, it means that you still need to check for each team/city, where it is placed in the regional divisions for level 4, 5 and 6. That’s quite a bit of work (which I noticed again when working on West Germany this weekend). Looking it up for each team via Wikipedia isn’t possible, so you need to make a map, combine teams, a lot of admin. Instead of you do it via level 6, the Kreislevel Wikipedia will tell you exactly where you are and going levels up is pretty easy to find.

That might be, but in general clubs won't want to see that, whatever players like or not.

It's possible to do this in the pre-game editor, so the option is already there.

While realistic, the issue I see with this suggestion is that teams don't like to be shown like this in the game. This is for instance why certain things only happen to newgens and not with real players.

More to the level that Austria has. It worked with the Länder like Tirol and Innsbruck, but the current setup has Kreisen. I am working through the regional divisions for West Germany and while the research is done well, rechecking them in FM24 with the new teams is a bit of a hassle.

Limiting the amount of transfers does not entirely work, but question is whether I have set things up correctly.

While editing West Germany for the Iron Curtain I was thinking on how I can make things easier for me. It does mean rethinking my local regions.
