Mediocre_Jake Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 I'm having some issues with getting 1 reserve team to play in another league. Due to a rule change in Korea, Reserve teams are now allowed to participate in the 4th tier. This season, one team (Gangwon) has opted to remove themselves from the reserve league and play in this 4th tier. My issue is, the reserve league is still running, much like real life, but after 1 season, it removed the reserve team from the 4th tier, Gangwon, that I have added them in and it automatically puts them back in the reserve league. I have edited the reserve league in the advanced rules to only pull 21 teams, instead of 22, in the hopes it would skip the reserve team that I have put in the 4th tier. But that just makes the game ignore a random other team and actually adds this specific reserve team into both the 4th tier and the reserve league, which is incorrect. The reserve league pulls from all 1st and 2nd tier teams for their reserve team in the 'Teams' section of the league stages, but was wondering if anyone knew a way I could essentially 'ban' the reserve team (Gangwon) from entering the league and just remain in the 4th tier.

What have you set Gangwon's reserve team to? I understand that you don't want to set 'Never use' but if you combine 'Never use' with the reserve division? What happens then?

Mediocre_Jake Posted February 2, 2021 Author Share Posted February 2, 2021 (edited) I have the reserve teams section for Gangwon setup like the image below, so I don't have the option to select 'Never Used' Should I setup the reserve team in a different way?

Under Reserve teams to create you have an opton to set 'never used'. Can you add your reserve teams there and add division and tick the box. That's what I thought you could try.

Fredrik Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 I also wonder about having U18 team twice but that's a separate but related topic. It seems you can have the reserve team at two places. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Reserve league that I don't want it entered into permanently? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fredrik Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Yes. I'd like to try if that means that the reserve team never plays in that division. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll try that and see what happens. I'll holiday a full season to show the results (if nothing changes) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reserve league still runs, but that is because there is still 21 teams to choose from (as intended) The 4th tier just replaced them with a random team from the database (Seoul Martyrs) Edited February 2, 2021 by Mediocre_Jake Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fredrik Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 (edited) Interesting. Then it clearly doesn't work to resrict the team this way. What a pity. The other way I immediately thought of is where you select 'Get all teams from...'. There you could try to set to ignore Gangwon. Do it before the 'Get all teams from...' and see what happens. Set team type to Reserve. If that also doesn't work then I won't know what to do Edited February 2, 2021 by Fredrik 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gangwon is selected as the team, just not showing in the screenshot Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fredrik Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 (edited) Yes, that's how I meant. My thinking is that the game first decides to ignore Gangwon's reserves before selecting any eligible team. Edited February 2, 2021 by Fredrik Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can I do a similar thing to stop them also being able to compete in the Korean FA Cup? Just add them to ignore? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fredrik Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Yeah, I think that should work. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks so much for your help. I would have spent days trying to work out how to do that! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
