henri.melo00 Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 (edited) Hi, it's me again. I'm running in another problem with my custom Brazil pyramid. It's all working now in terms of competition and dynamics, but, all the games from the national divisions are only happening on Saturday, and we have a Wednesday open in the scheduling for cup matches, and even the default time being 16:00 for weekend matches, the games all happen on Saturday at 15:00. I already changed a lot of things in the nation and competition fixture and schedule rules and I'm completely unaware of how to solve it. League Schedule Match Days Dates TV Dates Knockout round scheduling (all matches are scheduled to Sunday) Nation default fixture time Fixture time for all the divisions Also, the teams from the bottom 3 divisions are having trouble to find teams for friendly (I even simulated a year ahead to see if it wasn't a problem just because of the new setup in the first year). And I don't know if this is something regarding the reputation because a lot of the teams that are in this pyramid (more than 500) doesn't have a regular competition to play in FM or something that I have to do in the advanced rules.

themodelcitizen Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 Have you added the competition flag "don't use home match days"? Hopefully it's that simple... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't, but I added and it didn't change the situation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
henri.melo00 Posted July 14, 2023 Author Share Posted July 14, 2023 Now I even copied Brazil standard rules when we open Brazil with the existing structure in the Advanced Rules and still no solution. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
themodelcitizen Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 From a quick look, I would make sure the "flag" under "general" is set for "don't use home match days", and also get rid of "dates" - 25 under "league schedule (all groups)". Having the same instructions in multiple places tends to throw things off, might be generating some weird conflicts. Under "tv dates" are you also accidentally telling it to move every Sunday date to Saturday? Maybe plug a number into "number of dates to move". You can also set every date manually (like you have with the first and last), and/or use "break periods" to block specific periods (like every Monday-Tuesday, or Wednesday-Saturday), but that shouldn't be necessary 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can also set every date manually (like you have with the first and last), and/or use "break periods" to block specific periods (like every Monday-Tuesday, or Wednesday-Saturday), but that shouldn't be necessary Most of those things I added after leaving almost everything blank or equal to the configuration in Brazil Advanced Rules while adding new competitions, not starting a new structure. I'm not against games on Saturday, so, I don't want to use break periods. I did what you suggested, except the "breaks periods" and the result was the same. I tried using the TV dates to move games from Saturday to Sunday, and it also didn't work. I believe there is something overriding all my instructions. I will test the break periods on a month to confirm it. EDIT: With the break periods blocking games from Thursday to Saturday in February, the scheduling simply ignored the month of February.

henri.melo00 Posted July 15, 2023 Author Share Posted July 15, 2023 As I'm playing a Journeyman career through Africa, I'm using a lot of created competitions from the Timo Megapack, and I went through it and noticed that all my games where either played Saturday at 15:00 or Wednesday 19:30, so I'm guessing this is a issue with newly created structure in countries.

themodelcitizen Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 Can't believe I didn't think of this earlier but is it not just the setting for network play/"every game on Saturday or Wednesday" being ticked? Not from the editor, but the actual setting in the game. It's for network games so you all play at the same time instead of staggered kick-offs 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That solved the problem, thanks, man. Edited July 17, 2023 by henri.melo00 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
themodelcitizen Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 LOL. No problem, glad it was something so simple. On the plus side, sometimes these weird issues make you go over every setting again with a fine-toothed comb and making tweaks in other areas 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
