V50

Infuriatingly, this is now reproducing in my tests...

All this done for next update, except foreign player rules (BFA website went down today so couldn't check, but I set it to regulations) and away goals (still a rule AFAIK). The skipping a year took an hour to figure out - it needed an update day set to the same as the nation (I previously set this blank, and what happens was pre-season friendlies for 2023 were set in September 2023 instead of 2022...)

I'm sorry to everyone experiencing issues this year. It has been massively frustrating for me - I've done so many long term tests and that error never came up with the league not running or the other problems. The 5 subs thing is something I've learnt since and will change for whenever I get time to update.

So it will only take until 2070 for my beloved Charlton to get back to the Premiership!

That's strange - in my tests it all works perfectly. Does this trend start after a certain year? (Wondering if a strangely timed world cup broke it?)

Get him sold - players like that poison the dressing room and lower your professionalism average.

If its any consolation trinidad did this earlier this year due to the timings of the champs league

The NACL is a separate file this year

Looks like you're not the only one... How do the other Curacao teams do in the competitions?

Well I really hope they move... I'm at the mercy of SI coding on whether they do - I know last year @WhiteCat33 improved the league reputation

3 at the back is by far my favourite formation, but I've not found any of them to work in years in FM.

Change tactics? A classic 4-3-3 or 4-2-4?

If it's any consolation I was two seasons in and with my own updates I'm considering starting again!

Fixed, v1.7 out now @themodelcitizen @XaW

definitely, thanks for spotting! In terms of the Shield Dates, CONCACAF changed the dates again, it's frustrating to keep up with them. I will update the files with an August Shield/Cup...

That is weird. More weird is that they overlap, which shouldn't happen. Is it a world cup year?

Thank you for looking into this. Just to note I raised this as this happens if you convert from basic to advanced, meaning these rules aren't being set up properly by the editor in basic mode, rather than being a problem I brought in.

Can you send me a screenshot? It should take the last winner and runners up. Alternatively, it might be that due to when the season ends you are entered in the next year? See which two teams qualified for hte Caribbean Club Shield from the DR this year and see if it was last year's winners and runners up. The competition "resets" 1st January, so that will be where it looks for the last winner and runner up.

The Caribbean Shield finalists go into the Caribbean cup, and the top 3 of the Caribbean Cup qualify for the NACL. If Curaçao's reputation increases you will get entered later in the competition (top 4 nations enter the Caribbean Cup directly with their 1st and 2nd teams, with their 3rd joining the Caribbean Shield)

No option for that you pick predetermined round names in the editor.

Great stuff. The rounds are called "Kaya 6" and "Kaya 4" which I'm not sure of the translation, but picked 6th and 4th rounds to get the gist as there isn't an option.

I can help answer here. The main problem is the players - internal logic suggests why move if its not worth my while? Your best domestic montserrat players wouldn't play for Vanorama North or South, as they will be below standard. For players to move abroad they often require a premium, which no club would pay for in England. Foreign clubs won't be interested for a long time - you'd need to significantly improve the youth coaching. My files solve this by setting up transfer preferences, and I have seen montserrat players head to local islands using my data files, as a step to Europe. Without my Caribbean Shield competition you will find it nigh-on impossible due to the random nature of qualification for you - if you load my files and make it to the group stages you can get good (realistic) cash - about what you are earning a year in revenue!

Oh so it was, how annoying. It's not happening this year though right?

v1.6 with the President's cup is now up
