That's awesome! might have to give this a go again given that my short run this year got interrupted by life

select them and assign to the scouting pool I think it comes under 'national team'

2022/23 Season Update A pretty dire season all told, we were in free fall for most of the 2nd half of the season. A 1-0 win due to a penalty against Corticella in the last weeks of the season made sure of us finishing above them - not that it was particuarly deserved. So we avoid last place by the skin of our teeth, and relegation only by the fact that this databse has no relegation from Serie D. Not being relegated feels like a bit of a cop-out, but as I play on a laptop and Eccelenza level is just too many leagues for me - I will have to accept my 'divine intervention'. I could alternatively restart - but given we're predicted dead last @ 250-1, that would likely not stave off 'ficitonal' relegation anyway - so my current plan is to continue with this save in its current form. I don't really see the point of saying any more, as I expect to see a large turnover of players this transfer window & hopefully nest season is much different. Also, if I can't get 6 points from the first 5 games next season - I'm sacked - so we will have to see if I survive. The national team, somewhat unsurprisngly, is doing even worse. from here on in I expect to put in minimum effort for a few years - as the players just are'nt good enough.

yeah I was thinking about changing that too but alas worried it would mess up playability in the long term - would need to test properly

Based nation of Victor is San Marino ... so most regens will have some form of Sammarinese nationality

yeah you can sign whoever you want

depends what setup you're looking for, but I think most of them are somewhere on this thread / we have copies of them I've attached my fix for Victor & SM Academy incorrect nationality changes (make sure it loads last) - for anyone that wants it (would need a new game) @ChiccO could you put it in the front post? also the Victor in serie D too? as I play on a laptop so eccelenza adding 10K players is too much. - make the challenge more accesible. x san marino player nationality fixes.fmf

@Ronaldo Beckham i see youve updated your youth recruitment a lot - is that beneficial or not? - as i thoughtit would mean youd get more players from further afield who arent eligible for the National team?

on second thought, not too sure how / what to do to nationality rules in the editor, given the complicated nature of the system and the game being more basic; https://www.sanmarinosite.com/en/infos/citizenship/ tldr; I dont beleive the in-game nationality rules are completely correct, but leaving them as they are is at least reasonable and helps ensure playability in the long-term. I also did a year-long test, and by May 2023 none of the players that should'nt be able to have chaged their nationality to Sammarinese, so changing their "date of moving to based nation" for players that play in the Italian league for clubs with San Marino as their based nation seems to fix it. Might need to do this for the San Marino Academy, too - although I didn't notice this happening to any of their players yet.

I think I may have found the problem with Victor players switching nationality at the start of the game. In the editor, their based nation is Italy, despite the club being based in San Marino. I think when the game starts their based nation changes to San Marino as they play for the club but their "date when moved to based nation" (i beleive, havent checked ingame editor) does not change. As this is (usually) when they were born, it would put them over the San Marino citizenship requirements. therefore, setting the "date when moved to based nation" to *roughly* when they joined the club (Victor) in the editor should fix the problem also in the editor the nationality rules (as per english Wikipedia - is this right?) are incorrect. it is 30 years & no dual so ill fix that too. I've made a file but want to test a little more this evening/tomorrow.

may well join at some point! getting harder to keep myself away

Don't have time to keep the thread updated much these days, so if yous want to start a new one for fm23 (or use this one) that's cool If I don't do that, maybe I'll squeeze put some time to play! I reckon just write Acheivements in each of our posts rather than the front of the thread because updating takes too long (bar the really high level ones)

Seems like a cool idea, considering doing something like that myself - upping a point seems very fair if there is relative sucess!

We've now recovered to our natural position of 20th in the National League, above 21st (relegation) on goal difference. I must admit, it is starting to feel like a bit of a dead end / boring given that this is the 3rd season in a row with no change, and a board that seemingly has absolutely zero ambition, yet will very likely sack me if I get relegated ... anyway. Esp when I am getting offers from clubs in much better situautions ... i will have a think and maybe come back to this save at some point in the future

Oh dear! not going well this season!
