I can't believe I was wrecking my brain because of a configuration that I never used before in other FMs and never knew I was using. That solved the problem, thanks, man.

As I'm playing a Journeyman career through Africa, I'm using a lot of created competitions from the Timo Megapack, and I went through it and noticed that all my games where either played Saturday at 15:00 or Wednesday 19:30, so I'm guessing this is a issue with newly created structure in countries.

Most of those things I added after leaving almost everything blank or equal to the configuration in Brazil Advanced Rules while adding new competitions, not starting a new structure. I'm not against games on Saturday, so, I don't want to use break periods. I did what you suggested, except the "breaks periods" and the result was the same. I tried using the TV dates to move games from Saturday to Sunday, and it also didn't work. I believe there is something overriding all my instructions. I will test the break periods on a month to confirm it. EDIT: With the break periods blocking games from Thursday to Saturday in February, the scheduling simply ignored the month of February.

Now I even copied Brazil standard rules when we open Brazil with the existing structure in the Advanced Rules and still no solution.

I haven't, but I added and it didn't change the situation.

Hi, it's me again. I'm running in another problem with my custom Brazil pyramid. It's all working now in terms of competition and dynamics, but, all the games from the national divisions are only happening on Saturday, and we have a Wednesday open in the scheduling for cup matches, and even the default time being 16:00 for weekend matches, the games all happen on Saturday at 15:00. I already changed a lot of things in the nation and competition fixture and schedule rules and I'm completely unaware of how to solve it. League Schedule Match Days Dates TV Dates Knockout round scheduling (all matches are scheduled to Sunday) Nation default fixture time Fixture time for all the divisions Also, the teams from the bottom 3 divisions are having trouble to find teams for friendly (I even simulated a year ahead to see if it wasn't a problem just because of the new setup in the first year). And I don't know if this is something regarding the reputation because a lot of the teams that are in this pyramid (more than 500) doesn't have a regular competition to play in FM or something that I have to do in the advanced rules.

I got rid of that when I scrapped the ranking levels info, because I noticed they weren't working properly. I'm only using the ranking levels.

I did some tweaking and it is working properly now, Thanks for the advice, it helped so much.

I cleaned up like you suggested, and barring one change where a team supposed to be on the Libertadores was on Sudamericana, and vice-versa (8th and 9th, according to my calculations), the teams where all qualified. As the champion of Libertadores and Brazilian Cup was the same team that had a 4th spot (direct spot on group phase), maybe in the transfer of those two spots, it went for the best non-qualified team on the group stage, as normally, by Brazilian rules, overlapping spots goes to the highest positioned team in table not qualified to the competition. I will run another simulation until I get a non-brazilian team winning Libertadores and a hopefully, a team that isn't qualified for Libertadores also won the Cup. However, this is the time that it got closer to what I want. Thanks for the help, and if you have any insight on the situation above, it would be appreciated, as this is the last issue I have to solve for it to be ready.

I can do both. Ranking Levels for the group stage: Ranking Levels Info for knockout: Brasil Alternativo - Henrique M..fmf

So, I created the ranking levels but also tried adding some continental qualification through this part: I know that right now, the top 3 are being correctly qualified for the group stage. But the other ones (including the Sudamericana spots) are still being given according the group stage. I had a 7th place reach semifinal and they should be awarded the spot, but missed continental football altogether by being so low in the table.

None of those worked, I'll try setting ranking levels. The teams are still qualifying from the group stage.

Thanks, I'll try those and post the feedback.

Hi, I'm running into a problem while creating a new pyramid for the Football in my country (Brazil). As the league is, the 5 best teams goes to Libertadores, 6th and 7th goes to Libertadores preliminary rounds and 8th to 13th goes to Sudamericana. However, I divided the league in two groups and the champion is decided in a two legged knockout round between the 8 best of each group. This is creating a situation where the 4 best teams might not be between the best of the group stage and this team would miss a direct spot in Libertadores group phase or not be classified to it. I created a workaround where I add all the results in a overall table, but I still can have a best 4 outside of the spots in the overall table, and maybe a champion that doesn't go to the Libertadores as well (I intend to brute force this later to see) So, how can I set the 16 places according to the knockout stage to be the ranking that Libertadores and Sudamericana pulls to set the classified teams to the next season? If needed, I can add the file later, I'm not at home now.

So, I kept fiddling and by @rusty217 advice on the promotion rules, I was able to find a solution. Thanks, man. EDIT: After continuing adding levels to the pyramid, I discovered that the "Minimum Overall Promotion Places for Parent Comp" doesn't need to be ticked for it to work. Just adding 0 promotion places to the group stage is enough.

If I fill this page, the next stage, where the promotions and championship are decided in a knockout stage, the editor says to me that knockout stage can't gather enough teams to start. My promotions are setup on the fate actions of the stage 1 (cup). If I left 4 relegated from the championship above it verifies, if I change to 8, it verifies. Only after I changed the promoted teams from quarter finals winners (4 promoted) to eighth final winners (8 promoted), it doesn't work.

Hi, I'm currently creating an alternative football pyramid for my country, to see if my ideal view of how the football should be on the country working in the game. However, I'm stuck on a stupid error that doesn't make sense. Initially, I thought that 2 relegations places for the first level was okay and made it work for promotion and relegation between first division and second, however, I decided to change those numbers and now I'm receiving this error. I just changed, correctly, the number of teams going up in the fate actions of the round of the division and also updated the number of relegated teams. If I change the relegated teams to 4 instead of 8, the editor verifies my file, but with the right setup it doesn't. How can I surpass this error? Brasil Alternativo - Henrique M..fmf
