Booking, Live Show, and Front Office Update

Matches, Promos, and Angles

  • Matches, Promos, and Angles are now three separate segment types throughout Booking, Watch Show, and Results.
  • Promos clearly show who is speaking, who is being talked about, and whether full teams are involved.
  • Added more Angle choices, including post-match attacks, mystery attacks, tag team breakups, stable expulsions, recruitment offers, training sessions, mask removals, and humiliations or pranks.
  • Planned endings now affect Watch Show commentary, Results, consequences, and storyline movement.
  • Story Moments are only available when a segment is connected to a storyline, so one-off segments no longer show choices such as Final Match.
  • You can start a new storyline directly from a booked Match, Promo, or Angle.
  • Quick Fill, Let Booker Plan, and staff booking now correctly preserve Promos and Angles.
  • Booking cards and Results now say Promo or Angle instead of calling every non-match segment an Angle.

Watch Show

  • Promos and Angles now play out like real parts of a wrestling broadcast.
  • Commentary reflects the people involved, their roles, the location, the purpose of the segment, and its planned ending.
  • The final call and Results recap now reflect what you booked instead of falling back to generic commentary.
  • Tag team matches now show and call the wrestlers as two teams instead of four separate opponents.
  • Promo and Angle consequences can carry into story heat, turns, saves, betrayals, injuries, and other results when the booked ending calls for them.

Marketing and Front Office

  • Marketing has been added to Front Office.
  • A hired marketing staff member can handle affordable campaigns and PR work within the authority you give them.
  • Marketing spending is included in the promotion's finances.

Auto Venue and show money

  • Auto Venue now looks at the actual card, expected crowd, rent, operating costs, and projected profit before choosing a building.
  • If every available venue loses money, Auto Venue chooses the smallest projected loss instead of spending like the company has money to burn.
  • Auto Venue now stays in the promotion's proper home market.
  • Manual venue choices and confirmed tour venues remain protected.
  • Booking now separates the show's own costs from the weekly payroll and office costs assigned to it.
  • Show Money and Results now include broadcast crew and truck costs, PPV distribution, marketing, and assigned weekly costs.
  • Fixed an error where the listed costs and final profit could disagree because a real expense was missing from the displayed total.

Roster filters

  • Fixed All, Main Event, Men, Women, Tag Teams, Needs Push, booking, and storyline filters showing the wrong wrestlers or the wrong count.
  • Selecting All now clears every other roster filter and restores the full roster.
  • The selected filter is now easy to see.
  • Less-used filters have been moved into More Filters, with the wrestler count still shown beside each one.
