Odd issue turning up, several teams from Croatia and Slovenia have turned Yugoslavian, without me doing anything about it. Probably is because I changed their competitions to Yugoslavia, which was not my intention. Something to fix when I am working on Yugoslavia again. Work with moving players has finished. I have some final checks in that file for players in England with a contract data before 1/2/2021 (which would make them non-foreign under Brexitrules) and some transfer values I need to purge to avoid getting sudden influx of money. Then it is checking teams for too much players, but all those checks are done in between while I am competition editing. On that note, Czechoslovakia will be finished this weekend (pretty sure of that), next week is spend at work, in the dunes until late in the night and out for dinner, so I don't have much time to edit anyway and March is for Romania. I need to clean up the Romanian data so the competition works again and then it is checking the playoffs I have set before I convert it to advanced rules. Since Romania does not have any tricks up their sleeve like Czechoslovakia did, I expect to go through it quicker. It also means the midweeks are available for the Soviet Union and West Germany and (yes, I know this is blasphemous ) other games.

Remove the comp editor file, go to Steam and verify your installation. It will update the files and put the original one back.

Don't strain your neck when watching FM tennisstyle.

Not much to report, progress is progress. Getting close to have all player data changes finished which means I get room to prepare the other nations I need to work on. For now competition work mostly turns out to be data preparation, so it's good I can do that during the working days.

More importantly, while working on the European history I am considering first doing a series of stories on the general history of Europe before I do a little more detailed part about each nation. With the American nation there were much less points of divergence, mainly the result of the Napoleonic wars leading into the independence of various nations and the breaking of the union causing North America to break up. History in Europe is much different with more points of divergence. I am also slowly connecting the various African colonial histories into it so everybody stays close.

I was looking at the editor files and the XML files that create was shown and editable in the editor. The year 1800 for a history seems to be a setting in the editor. So maybe I will see if I can use it to add some earlier history It could also mean that 2100 is not the last year for setting hosts in a tournament, so that could be a nice thing for people who want more.

What do you mean with everyone play in every league system? Is that that a team plays in the Gazprom league and also in their own national leagues?

If a post gets an reply, it is actually more likely that people will check your post. So posting multiple times could mean your post is not looked at by people. In this case, I checked your screenshots with the editor and the game, and from what I am seeing, your setup looks pretty much spot-on from what I would do based on your description what you want in game. Which means the issue is in the game not recognizing this properly. So it's a bug unfortunately.

Why do you post the same thing again, even though I am trying to help you?

Can you show the history section for this player, because apparently something is missing according to the game (or it is a bug which I would like to confirm in this case).

Noted in my little black book There have likely been changes to the editor 'under the hood' which are causing this. I have the idea that the editor is a bit more sensitive to correct input than in previous versions.

I think the answer to that would be no. The adanced rules have several 'layers' of dates, where you have a season setup date for the nation and for the competition. In this case you would cross the season setup date on the nation level and that will likely give an error.

Amount isn't an issue per se. I am on 60 with no issue. Size of files could be an issue, but this would crash your game when loading. Conflicting files could be as well (check for two competition files for the same nation).

Have used the ask competition neutral ones in a similar way to the Neutral in the list. I didn't see any difference, so back to Neutral for me. Do agree that this is probably for default competition.

Do you have selection rules?

I got a suggestion from someone via PM to just release whoever would end up in the wrong nation when I set the foreigner rules. So say I set England no foreigners at all, I would release every single foreign player. It is not a bad idea, but there is one caveat you need to keep in mind. Whenever you would release a player on a free day and the game gets updated with said player being transffered in the updated database, that transfer will go through. So this in a sense means you would end redoing, redoing and redoing your free transfers for all players that move during the transfer window. Still, if I end up in a version where I am going to do most of the player movements, this is something I will keep in mind. So on that subject, thanks for the suggestion

And what stopped you?

Moved out of the download section (no download in post).

As long as the teams are active the players are loaded. Deleting competitions doesn't change that. Only if you extinct teams without releasing the players they can get lost.

Use this and delete everything you don't need. Btw, this is just an example since I am working on some stuff in the editor. Custom start date won't help you unfortunately.

Is that testing in editor or in game? For in game, it is deleting them which will give the best performance boost. But deleting everything is tricky as you need to make sure you delete the right information.

Worked on the Czechoslovak competition which goes a lot better now. And managed to clean France and English foreign players amounts which is good progress as well.

Moved out of the download section. This might be a question that the skinners side of things know more of btw.

Yes.

There have been reported issues with unextincted teams, so likely this is the editor and not your game. Could you please add your file to the issue for the unextincted teams in the bug tracker?
