Hi everyone,
Most of v0.4.3 again comes straight from your forum posts.
Players settle in after a transfer
After you moved a player to a bigger club, he could ask to move up again the very next season. Players who had just joined a new club on a short deal also kept asking for an extension that couldn't be signed until the season was over. Now every "take me to a bigger club" request, formal or in a message, waits two seasons after a transfer, and players, clubs and journalists only bring up an extension when it can actually be negotiated. A player who is genuinely unhappy can still ask to leave.
My Players: choose your columns
The list now shows each player's current club and league. A Columns menu lets you switch columns on and off (Age, Club, League, Country, Form, Morale, Value, Wage, Contract and Status) and remembers your choice. Click a column header to sort, click it again to reverse the order.
Every nationality in the Editor
Players and coaches can now have any of 217 nationalities, including the whole Caribbean: Bermuda, Curaçao, Aruba, Haiti, the Bahamas, Barbados, Cuba and the rest. Each one has its own code and its name in every language. A league you create in a new country, Haiti for example, now produces Haitian players and coaches.
Five more screens rebuilt
- Messages: a compact inbox on the left, the full message and your replies on the right. Reading or answering no longer moves the list.
- Academy and Junior Agents: a list on the left, the selected youngster's or agent's file on the right.
- Promises and News: the same layout. On News only the list scrolls now.
- Continental Cups and Social: the header stays in place and only the table or the feed scrolls. The cup table is more compact and shows goals for and against.
Fixes
- Continental places: a newly promoted club was ranked with the points it earned in the lower league, so some clubs in the table's cup zone never entered a cup. Qualification now follows the table order, including goal difference, and every club in the zone plays in a cup.
- A coach's league position, which drives the pressure on him, now uses the same tie-breaks as the table.
- The release clause talk event now actually sets the clause it describes.
- With an expired agent licence, the buttons for new coach talks and new signings looked available but did nothing. They now say the licence has expired and take you to renew it.
- Academy: the limit column no longer gives away a youngster's hidden potential. The training cost now includes the Academy Campus discount, and Turn Professional checks your player capacity.
- Player Search showed Scottish and Welsh players with the England code.
- Some country names were missing in several languages.
Thanks for every report, keep them coming.
