Ten matches isn't a huge amount for data, but appreciate with the crossing your setup has caused a huge outlier. Are you playing a very narrow system? Work ball into box etc and reduced crossing down for all wide players (so no wingers, all inside-forwards/advanced playmakers etc)? All stats need to be taken into account with context. Would be interesting to see your save and tactical setup to see what's been going on. Do have to say, find it very odd that the rest of the teams have such a low cross completion percentage, so more likely an issue there than with your own. However have had a look at a few saves I've got here to hand and none of those show anything remotely similar.

Don't disagree and worth raising here - https://community.sigames.com/forums/forum/680-football-manager-feature-requests/ Thanks.

Would be worth raising this via the bug tracker with a save game from just beforehand so the team can investigate further. Tracker here - https://community.sigames.com/bugtracker/football-manager-2023-bugs-tracker/dynamics-interactions-press-conferences-club-vision-supporter-confidence-staff-appointments-meetings/ Save game upload details here - https://community.sigames.com/bugtracker/instructions-and-notes/how-to-upload-files-to-us-r98/ Appears that the question was held over from the end of last season due to the ongoing narrative. Thanks.

If you do happen to have a save game from around the point the original 'new' stadium was approved that would also be helpful in allowing us to investigate this in more detail. Appreciate you may not, but if you do please upload and let us know the file name. Thanks.

Looks like the expansion capacity was set to what the stadium's current max capacity is, so will require further investigation. This can be set initially due to a number of factors (catchment area, local facilities/wealth/fan interest etc). In the Yorkshire/Humberside area there are already a number of successful clubs with existing large fanbases, which is why it was probably a relatively small initial build. But appreciate given the success of the club since it's exploded in popularity somewhat.

This is something we are looking at. For FM23 the game has moved from emulated Intel support to silicon support, so there has been a fair amount of investigation and work on the Mac side specifically for this version and for the most recent update. Would suggest if you have any issue related to performance to raise your own thread here so our team can investigate further - https://community.sigames.com/bugtracker/football-manager-2023-bugs-tracker/match-engine-art-animations-facegen-manager-creator-and-sounds/ Thanks.

That's odd as have both those ticked for my own game and have no seen any issue remotely similar to this. Are you playing FM23 on another system at all and moving between saves? We have seen in this past that anti-virus programs can sometimes interfere with Steam/FM and cause problems with the game's recorded histories. Perhaps by having these active it's causing this to occur, so worth reading and following the instructions as listed here -https://support.sega.com/hc/en-gb/articles/9997322566545 Let us know how you get on. Thanks.

Okay thanks for coming back and do keep us updated.

Thanks for the save game, our team will investigate.

So when you receive an inbox item asking you to make players available for your U19 point, that's the point the AI youth team manager 'selects' their team. Any changes made beyond that point before the match will be remembered and played for the match. Can you try with that in mind and see if you encounter the same issue? Let us know how you get on, thanks.

Okay thanks for coming back and letting us know.

Do you happen to have a save game which shows this? Ideally just before it appeared in your time? Details on how to provide a save game here - https://community.sigames.com/bugtracker/instructions-and-notes/how-to-upload-files-to-us-r98/ Thanks.

It is something under review currently but in the meantime we would recommend holidaying past this. Apologies for any inconvenience caused.

In terms of a 'new' stadium there is a limit in time before you can request the board to build a new one. In terms of improvements, it's won't be as long, so worth uploading your save game and letting us know the file name so we can check and see what the current status is. Details on how to do so here - https://community.sigames.com/bugtracker/instructions-and-notes/how-to-upload-files-to-us-r98/ Thanks.

If it's crashing then it'll be a different issue entirely, so worth checking the tech FAQ here for troubleshooting suggestions - https://support.sega.com/hc/en-gb/sections/9807315748881-Technical-Issues If you're unable to resolve it yourself, please contact our support team for further assistance here - https://fmofficial.support/Ticket Thanks.

It's more an element of there being factors tied into everything at the club which give you a better/worse chance of intakes being good. Yes there is a point where most of this info can be affected by save scumming, but the HOYD affects things tied into that longer term.

Bear in mind a HOYD develops players from a very young age, so you're unlikely to see a knock on with the quality of your players specifically attributable to a HOYD for at least a few intakes. Yes they may help boost a player towards the end of their 'youth' development before they're part of an intake, but by that stage a lot of the work may already be done for that player. Also

Yes the issue is related to the way in which they're incrementally increased. It means you won't be able to upgrade in this save until it drops in standard. You still have 19/20 for your setting which means it's still exceptionally high. If you're desperate to change it to 20/20, I'm happy to update it with the IGE and send you the save game, just tag me here or drop me a PM if that's the case. It is an issue we're aware of and one we're investigating. Thanks.

What does it display if you go to the Home -> Promises what does it display for this? Would be helpful if you upload your save game and let us know the file name so we can take a look. Details on how to upload here - https://community.sigames.com/bugtracker/instructions-and-notes/how-to-upload-files-to-us-r98/ Thanks.

Thanks for providing the save, our team will review.

Yeah it's likely a setting in your preferences. Search 'continue' via the search bar and there are options which may be active causing this (such as Continue Game Timeout).

Yeah as said above, this is due to licensing reasons.

Believe it depends on the size of the club, as realistically only clubs of a certain status would have them.

Just to clarify on this one, what exactly do you mean by 'cloud services' - what did you have running which caused this conflict exactly?

This is an issue we're aware of currently that is being investigated - we do not require any further information in relation to the crash at this time. Apologies for the inconvenience caused and it's something we'll look to address as soon as we're able to do so. Thanks.
