Fix for Spanish b-teams?


Recommended Posts

Hello! 

It's a fact that B-teams promoted to playable leagues in Spain is a issue - a issue SI haven't fixed. 

BUT is there something i can do as a user in the editor before starting a save? I'm a long, long time FM-player but have very little knowledge regarding the editor. 

Thanks in advance!

I can live with the B-team issue but what I find frustrating is squad registration for  the cup. 

In La Liga U-21's (might be 20 or 19 but whatever) don't need to be registered. However if you don't register them in the league they can't play in the cup!

Now maybe that's the rule in Spain but it's very odd. The cup is ideal opportunity to play my younger players but I'm not able to. Even though same youngsters can play in the league....

Yeah i can live with it too but what i get frustrated about is the lack of updates. This can't be hard to fix. Why not (with other smal issues in the game) fix it. If a similar issue was a fact in England - this would be fixed in a patch. My opinion. 

Agree about the 'rules'. I'm not 100 percent but think this is something that not mirrors real life. The cup is like you say ideal for youth to get minutes.

What issue are you referring to? I've seen B team being promoted to Segunda B & if you want greater depth I'm sure there are some very good  custom league files that allow you to run the Tercera divisions, I create my own lower league fike for Germany to active the 4th & sometimes the 5th tier to ensure that most of the U23 (B Teams) are playing in an active & full detail division.

I'm assuming the OP means the b team is promoted to the same league as the first team. This is against Spanish rules as obviously there would be a conflict of interest in Barca playing Barca B for example

Well that certainly isn't happening in my save.

Castilla won the Liga Adelante last season but they haven't been promoted and there have been several other cases of a "B" team finishing in a promotion spot & not going up.

If some users do have it happening in their saves then first port of call would be the database I would think, are they using a default SI one or a downloaded one?

 

EDIT

That said I don't think thats the issue that the OP is referring to either.

Thanks for all the answers! 

What my complaint was about is B-teams from inactive leagues (Tercera etc). One of many examples are Atletico Madrid whose b-team are in an inactive league and therefore will never be part of the game in a sense. That takes away some realism and as a user you can't build a team like you should be able to do. 

So promotion from inactive leagues does not work and SI knows it.

I'm not the one starting a save before the first major update so want to have one last save before christmas (FM17). Will look for custom league files or do something my self in the editor.

From League specific issues (Spain)... 

Olly Kenney: "Thanks for the information, currently in Spain there is a lack of B Teams being promoted from inactive leagues. This is an issue that we are aware of and is something that we are looking into. - april 5. 

Olly Kenney: "here are currently no plans to release further Updates for FM16, any potential fix for this issue will unfortunately have to wait for a future version. - may 24.

I have a soloution to fix the problem with the editor but you must start a new game.In the editor go to add nations rules, add Spain.Then under advanced rules you click the spanish segunda b and under competition a little

further down there is a point "Allow B-Teams to be promoted".Tick this for every Spanish Segunda League.I tested it, it works.Sry for my english :/

Thanks for your reply! 

I can be blind but have search for "Allow B-teams to be promoted" for an hour - have not find it. The only thing similar is the box "First teams only?". 

Me and the editor ain't best friends so i can be stupid!?

Edit: Found it! Will do some testing and be back. Thanks!
