Thanks very much for the work you have done, makes the game that much more enjoyable playing in these off nations. I don't envy you when it comes to these continental competitions, must be extremely annoying to work with. SI seem to hardcode alot of things to only work one way.

In my case the Concacaf Champions was supposed to have two teams from the USA, two from Mexico, the Canadian championship winner, the winner from the Caribbean club championship and the two finalists for the Central American Club Championship. My solution was to set fates for the Central American Club Championship semifinal winners and have the other 6 teams qualify in a regular way. In your case I am not sure it would solve the issue as the competition is clearly ignoring the higher reputations of Europe and South America, so it is complety ignoring the continents.

Hi @davie77, Thank you for you response, i'm looking forward to trying your files out as i am unable to find anyone else who has made realistic lower league files for the latest database yet this year for some countries. It may be quicker in europe to just stick to the leagues that are already in the database but not activated as there are so many countries that make up that continent.

It's not about reputation, it's about how competition changes. Season 2021: 7 teams / start feb 1 / end febr 11 (qualified from CONCACAF ; 1) Season 2022 : 24 teams / start june 15 / end jul 5 (qualified from CONCACAF : 3) Season 2025, 2029, 2033 and so on (every 4 years) : 24 teams / start june 15 / end jul 5 (qualified from CONCACAF ; 3) What is the problem ? The qualification system is hardcoded. The game does not take into account the newly created Concacaf Champions League. He may be forced to do so by specifying fate () ... but that specification cancels the automatic place allocation system because the game is required to receive an additional team and does not know what to do with it. We finally reach a mixed system. The game "organizes" in parallel two competitions : World Club Championship in default format and with default qualification system (2021, 2022, 2025, 2029) ... as well as a new World Championship in which only the teams from CONCACAF are admitted (2021, 2023, 2024, ...). How can this be avoided? I do not know. Probably the only solution is to create a fictional parallel world competition similar to the WCC. This competition would allow linking with other continental competitions as well as a clear specification of the allocation method.

With your own files it is of course easier. I mainly test whether I have given the wrong stage names somewhere (or completely forgotten them) or whether something doesn't fit due to a small error (example: I managed to get relegated from the 1st league of Tanzania to the Jupiler Pro League (Belgium) ). With files from others, it is probably best to simulate 1-2 seasons and then google whether the league really runs the way it was set or whether the changes make sense (example: I have built the 2020 season in Latvia, although only 8 teams play in the 1st league in 2021. Why? Because there is no information about the 2nd league for the new season, it is suddenly a closed league, you don't know how it will continue after this season, etc.).

Hi @davie77, I'm not Australian but from what little information i could find about the Australian league system the preliminary finals appear to be a 2nd competition after the regular A League season ends for the top 8 sides in the A League as seen here. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A-League_Finals There is no promotion or relegation from the A-League top league in Australia as seen here. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australian_soccer_league_system They seem to have quite an unusual league system in Australia in which the top division with promotion or releagtion is the 2nd league in the country (The National Premier Leagues consisting of 8 state leagues and Football Federation Northern Territory consisting of 2 leagues).

(I could have included it immediately, sorry...) From the looks of the picture it seems that the top 4 in the league at the end of the regular season are split 1st against 2nd and 3rd against 4th for the semi final play-off and the loser of the 1st v 2nd place semi final match gets a 2nd chance to qualify for the grand final by playing against the winner of the 3rd v 4th place semi final to get to the grand final to decide the overall champion. I have no idea how you would implement that kind of system into the game or if it was even possible using the editor unfortunately. I hope i have got this right but maybe someone else with more knowledge of the system will be able to explain it properly. Dai Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also not an Australian but basically it can be done like this, assuming regular league season is "stage 0": Stage 0: League Stage Stage 1: Major Semi Final - Get League stage teams 0 and 1 (i.e. 1st and 2nd in table) . Winner goes to grand final (Stage 4), loser qualifies for preliminary final (stage 3) Stage 2: Minor Semi Final - Get league stage teams 2 and 3 (i.e. 3rd and 4th in table). Winner goes to preliminary final (stage 3). Loser is eliminated. Stage 3: Preliminary Final - Get teams qualified from stage 1 (loser) and stage 2 (winner) - Winner goes to grand final (Stage 4), loser is is eliminated.

Frohike Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 Hi Davie77, First of all your work is really excellent. I'll wait patiently for your African files and European files to be released because they're worth the wait. However, I did encounter some minor errors in Honduras and Costa Rica leagues. In the Honduras' second division there are 4 groups and according to the rules overview the first 5 teams of the opening and closure round qualify for the first KO round. This means 20 team for only 16 places. Because of this, the first 5 teams of group A,B and C qualify and only the first team of Group D qualifies for the first KO round. Though I'm not an expert of the Hondurian System I suspect that only the first four of each group should qualify? That would make the 16 teams. Costa Rica works excellent, but when I click on the rules overview in the second division, the game crashes. I thought I should mention it, but compliments on the good work.
