XML boolean "next_season" attribute

[Ne0Que]

Hi there

Where does the next_season attribute stand for:

<record>
 <string id="competition" value="30"/>
 <string id="nation" value="0"/>
 <string id="minimum_number_teams" value="20"/>
 <string id="maximum_number_teams" value="20"/>
 <boolean id="next_season" value="false"/>
</record>

The reason i ask this is because next season the Dutch second tier competition (jupiler league) will only have 18 instead of 20 teams. So, the last 2 are going to relegate to the new third tier "Topklasse" competition.

Can i use the next_season attribute (so i will set it for the next season) to do this, like this?

<record>
 <string id="competition" value="30"/>
 <string id="nation" value="0"/>
 <string id="minimum_number_teams" value="20"/>
 <string id="maximum_number_teams" value="20"/>
 <boolean id="next_season" value="false"/>
</record>
<record>
 <string id="competition" value="30"/>
 <string id="nation" value="0"/>
 <string id="minimum_number_teams" value="18"/>
 <string id="maximum_number_teams" value="18"/>
 <boolean id="next_season" value="true"/>
</record>

Summary:

2009-2010:

Teams: 20

Teams Relegate: 2 (to fill the new topklasse (dutch 3rd tier) competition, starts jun 2010)

2010-2011:

Teams: 18

Teams Relegate: 1 (swaps with the winner of the topklasse competition (algemeen amateur kampioenschap))

Also the Topklasse competition should start next_season (not this season)

Now this is interesting - I wonder if we could hard-edit the xml here in Notepad, and implement changes for future seasons that would otherwise not be possible in the Editor... Might well be worth a careful play! I'd seen this yesterday myself and not twigged on - nice spot

Well, i tried to play with this setting but the game gives me a error.. 20 teams selected while 18 teams is max. So i need to setup 'somewhere?' that these 2 teams will NOT swap with anyone.

Then later (next season), the jupiler league will have only 18 teams from where 1 is going to relegate and will be replaced by the winner of the topklasse (algemeen amateur kampioen).
