My old login got lost Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 I'm trying to 'lock' players to a club for an AI experiment using future transfers and long contracts so the player can't leave on a free, nor can another club bid for them, as done in Walcott's Wonderkids' experiment, however I'm having issues organising any kind of future transfers at all, much less one in 10-20 years time. Can someone tell me I've done wrong or missed out here? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jod123 Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 I don't see anything wrong there to be honest. Why does it not work? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
My old login got lost Posted August 26, 2008 Author Share Posted August 26, 2008 When I load the DB and start the game, the player in question (Adriano) simply has no future transfer listed. Club, wages and contract terms are all as the DB changes dictate. I'm heading towards January so I'll soon find out if clubs are able to bid for him.

jod123 Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Strange. You could do it by using edt files and see if that works. You can easily create them in notepad. For making future transfers, it is probably easier to use them that using the editor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
My old login got lost Posted August 26, 2008 Author Share Posted August 26, 2008 OK, thanks. Looks like I'll have to learn to do that. After 23 games and 19 goals for Telford, 6 clubs bid around £200K for Adriano, so it clearly didn't work. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
My old login got lost Posted August 26, 2008 Author Share Posted August 26, 2008 Having zero luck with that. I have "FUTURE_TRANSFER" "Adriano" "Adriano" "Leite Ribeiro" "AFC Telford" "East Stirlingshire" 30 06 2009 1000 50 4 in my EDT file. It's showing as in extra file in game and the box is checked. That look OK? It's not having any effect in game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jod123 Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 First of all make sure the names are exactly right. I prefer to use unique id's as I find it easier to get right. Also shouldn't the date, fee, wage and contract length each be in quotation marks? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
My old login got lost Posted August 26, 2008 Author Share Posted August 26, 2008 http://footballmanager.wikia.com/wiki/EDT_file/Future_transfer Apparently without quote marks is right. I'll try with the Unique ID, the name is right, though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
My old login got lost Posted August 26, 2008 Author Share Posted August 26, 2008 No luck with that, either. EDIT: Took a total shot in the dark... Taking him to East Stirling was the problem! Just picked Histon off the top of my head and it worked fine. Thanks for all the help, jod. Don't know whether to laugh or cry at that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
