The youth structures do not necessarily mirror the top tier - Serbia is just one example of that. If you take a look at the table over here: https://fss.rs/takmicenje/omladinska-liga-srbije-23-24/ You will see that in 2023/34 not all SuperLiga teams had their U19 team in Omladinska liga, and there were some U19 associated with levels below SuperLiga, such as Grafičar (tier 2) and Brodarac (tier 3). Your U19 would need to secure promotion independently of your A-team. Marko might provide more details on how it is coded, but I think that in any case you cannot expect to have your U19 in the U19 top tier when the A team gets to SuperLiga, in real life or in the game.

That is absolutely correct. This has been fixed. Thanks!

Thank you for this one, it has been corrected.

On page 2 Zachary Whyte said it was fixed in early December.

Thank you for reporting this. It is logged and will be fixed. However, there is no need for such a tone.

Thanks. Yes, it makes sense to redo that bit. I will add it as a bug.

The rounds are coded in accordance with the official NZS schedule: https://www.nzs.si/Doc/Info/2023/07-23_Koledar NZS tekmovanj za tekmovalno leto 20232024 (1).pdf

In FM, the round of 16 is called Second Round. It should be happen on 6 March... Maybe we could rename it? The round before it should be on 25/11 (It contains more than 16 clubs and it is called First Round in FM). The round of 8 is called Quarter finals, and it should be on 3 April. To make it clearer - the Cup itself does not start as early as in real life as the represented clubs are included later. So, I guess that the round names appear puzzling because of this.

This has already been reported in the correct section:

Club coefficients are not set within country-based databases, so this is not a Serbian data issue - Marko is not responsible for setting these. I hope this issue can be moved to a topic where someone will be able to do something to fix it.

Good. If he stays in Slovenia after the winter break, we can add him. Please provide details on his injury, so that we can set that up as well. Thanks.

Hi, Thank you so much for reporting this. Given that we had experienced very many players from Slovenian who quit quite early, we decided not to add everyone. However, you are right that Horvat is worth adding - on the other hand, he has not made a single appearance this season. Could he be injured? Cheers.

When it comes to Olimpija, I am afraid that you are wrong. In the database, the short name of the club is not Olimpija Lublana. It is simply Olimpija. You are very likely using an external data add-on which changes it to the wrong name. Try loading the game without any external fixes. As for Interblock, we can rename it to IB 1975 in a future update, but this is not a high priority issue at this point, as they are below level 3. Thanks,

Thank you for noticing this - I was not at all aware that we were allowed to add histories for youth structures, as these teams have no separate db entries to select from, they are part of the main club. However, if this is allowed, I can add this in the next possible update. This thread has a duplicate entry, the other one should be deleted. Cheers.

I am unable to live-track the progress of bugs related to Serbian leagues, so I do not know. I am no longer involved in the coding process when it comes to Serbia. However, I hope that everything that can be fixed will be fixed soon.

Thanks. Now it seems to be transferred to the right thread: https://community.sigames.com/bugtracker/football-manager-2024-early-access-bugs-tracker/competition-rules-and-schedule/serbia-competition-specific-issues/ But both of them seem to have been already reported.

Neither of these is a data-related issue. They both belong to League Specific rules. Marko can confirm, but as far as I remember, both of them have already been reported in the appropriate thread.

I hope that the coders will be able to clarify this then. I can only see that it is there in the database.

As far as I can see, in the database VAR Type is normally set and it is set as beginning on 01/07/2021 in Serbian SuperLeague. Is it listed in the league rules of other leagues?

Regarding SWE-Sloboda relations, this is what I posted in the Serbian data thread: Hi! Thank you for sharing this. As you can see in the contract, it says that it would be implemented in accordance with possibilities and that the actual ways of cooperation are yet to be defined. We have no idea about who is going to pay for what. The date of the contract is September 2022. Have there been any loans in the previous 13 months? Have they exchanged any players or coaches? Based on this version of the document, Serbian White Eagles will use Sloboda's coaching staff and will be sending players over to Sloboda. This very likely means that the affiliation contract should be set from the Canadian side, so this is an issue that you probably should post in the Canadian data thread, not in the Serbian one. If they believe that this contract will live, they can create it and make it ready for one of the following updates. Given that this is a cross-border cooperation that might depend on visa-related issues, I would be in favour of first seeing how it would really work before setting it up. Thanks again.

As far as I know, there will be no further data updates for FM23, but you can change this particular issue using the editor.

We sent in a request to the Italian research team to set his declared nationality to Serbia in September 2022. Now he has caps for Serbia set and this will be alright in FM2024. On the whole, this is an issue related to the Italian data issues section, as the Serbian team does not have control over most of Samadžić's fields, including Declared Nation (which has still not been set to Serbia). Thanks.

All checked. Thanks.

He will be! Thanks.
