New Update: Desktop Navigation & Smarter Contracts

A new GoalCrest update focuses on making the PC experience cleaner, faster, and easier to navigate. Desktop navigation has been reorganized, readability has been improved, live matches are better protected, and the Contracts page now gives you much more information before you renew a player.

Improved Desktop Navigation

Several navigation issues have been fixed to make moving around GoalCrest more reliable.

The Match button now always takes you directly to the Match screen on the first click, even after visiting pages such as Top Scorers or other shortcuts.

Navigation highlighting has also been cleaned up. Only the page you are currently viewing is highlighted, so the sidebar and shortcuts always match what is actually on screen.

Better Organized Shortcuts

The desktop sidebar now groups secondary pages into six clear sections:

• Squad & Tactics

• Scouting & Academy

• Stadium & Facilities

• League & Cups

• Finance & Commercial

• Club & Career

Every page remains one click away, but finding the feature you need should now be much faster.

Better PC Readability

Small labels and secondary text have been increased in size, while shortcut buttons now have larger click areas.

The interface remains compact enough for a management game but is easier to read and use across common desktop resolutions, including 1366×768 and 1920×1080.

Live Match Confirmation

Trying to leave the Match screen while a game is still running now triggers a confirmation.

You can choose:

• Continue Match — stay and keep watching

• Leave Match — move to another part of the game

Your match result remains safely stored either way, but accidental exits during live commentary are now prevented.

Faster Facility Management

The Manage Facilities option on the Medical screen now takes you directly to the correct Facilities tab instead of opening the main Stadium page first.

It's a small change that removes an unnecessary extra step when upgrading your club.

Smarter Contracts

The Contracts page now gives you much more information before you decide whether a player deserves a new deal.

Every contract row can be expanded to show:

• All seven player attributes and potential

• Player traits

• Fitness

• Morale

• Form

• Appearances

• Goals and assists

• Average match rating

• Market value

You can review the player's complete situation without leaving the Contracts page, while the existing Renew 2y and Renew 4y options remain available.

A Better Desktop Dugout

This update doesn't change the match engine or club simulation. Instead, it makes managing your club on PC smoother and gives you better information when making contract decisions.

Load your career, explore the redesigned desktop navigation, review your players' contracts, and manage your club with fewer unnecessary clicks.
