Update v0.5.2 - Transfer System Improvements

Transfer System Changes:
  • Significant improved logic engine that determines the Value and Wage Demand of players.
  • Initial value of players purchased by users is now always equal to exactly 75% of the amount paid for the player
  • 35 year old players who will retire at the end of the season, will not have any wages projected to be paid to them beyond the end of the current season
  • Until end of the current season, any players who are now worth less as a result of the changes made can be sold for their previous value
  • Academy player purchase prices now start from £250M rather than £100M


Other Changes and Bug Fixes:
  • Base TV Rights are now included as being part of projected finances (note: if they are not earned then they are still not paid)
  • The Silver Legends Cup competition qualification club reputation range was changed from 40 to 50 to intead be from 35 to 50 (in turn this means that the Bronze Legends Cup changed from 0 to 40 to instead be from 0 to 35)
  • New 'Ping Speed' widget on the Settings layout (will assist a lot with identifying whether users technical issues are related temporary issues with their internet connection). Note: currently not included as part of the default layout
  • Various macOS mojave fixes

Player Profile Changes:
  • Career International Caps & Goals information appears on Personal Details widget
  • Player profile transfer/contract details widgets updated
    and combined into a single widget

National Teams:
  • National Team auctions widget now includes a column for recent performance of Nations (last 3 seasons) in official matches
  • Flags and colour schemes added for Cameroon, Cyprus, Gibraltar, Kosovo, Morocco, Nigeria, Peru and South Korea

  • Opponents squad list updated
  • Transfers tab moved from Overview to Finances layout


Player Search Updates:
  • Server side player search engine rebuilt from scratch resulting in many bugs being fixed with the player search
  • All saved player searches removed/deleted as they are not compatible with the new engine
  • Many additional columns available to see in the search results column, including national caps/goals and all player attributes
  • Limit to the number of conditions that can be used in each search (20 conditions)
  • Limit to the number of players a user can have on their shortlist (500 players shortlisted)


Staff Search Updates:
  • Many bugs fixed with the staff search
  • Limit to the number of conditions that can be used in each search (20 conditions)
  • Limit to the number of staff a user can have on their shortlist (100 staff shortlisted)


Match Engine Changes:
  • Minor updates to the player rating /10 system (that should result in a very slight boost for GK's and defenders ratings)
  • Fixes and some additions to the Match Commentary
  • Minor balancing changes
  • Less straight Red cards being issued
  • Less Yellow cards being issued (when a warning wasn't previously given to a player)
  • More warnings being issued to players
  • Tackling slider setting now has slightly more impact on the amount of injuries sustained to your own players (i.e. aggressive = more injuries than before, cautious = less injuries than before)


Other Changes and Bug Fixes:

  • Many updates to the library of pre-match tips
  • 15 year old Youth Players are now known throughout the client as being Academy Players (to avoid potential confusion between 15 year old Youth Players who cannot play in Youth competitions that are for players aged between 16 and 21 years old)
  • Wording on many pop-up messages improved
  • Fixed a bug with staff where it would incorrectly show the Contract Release and Bid pop-up when attempting to bid for a staff member the user didn't already have under contract if they already had another staff member under contract of the same role
  • Fixed a bug where some player names might end in a space (which resulted in double spaces coming through in the match commentary)
  • Fixed a rare bug where a user might have duplicate shareholder dividend payments in their projected transactions


Removed Things:
  • Old transfer system removed
  • Reborn Legends removed
  • CSV export functionality removed
  • ELO ratings removed
  • Some top 20 lists removed (e.g. elo rating and stuff relating to old tranfer system, and widgets that contained irrelevant information (i.e. number of online hours)
  • Various free text widgets on club profile have been removed
  • Various widgets to do with the old transfer system have been updated or removed for the new transfer system
  • All saved layouts removed due to compatibility issues surrounding the many changed/removed/added widgets/layouts/tabs/etc throughout the game client



Update v0.5.0a [2018-08-07]

  • Transfer Budget Removed from the game as a concept
  • To buy a player you must have enough current bank balance to afford the buy price & signing fee, and your projected bank balance must also be able to cover the incoming players wages

  • The amount a user paid to buy a player is now included in the mail message notifications sent out to other users that shortlisted the player
  • The amount a user paid to buy a player is now shown on the player profiles
  • Fixed Days Available on Shortlisted Available Players widget on home layout not working correctly for some players



Update v0.5.0b [2018-08-08]

  • Fixed a bug that some players wages or values could be calculated incorrectly (too high). Particularly impacted many Free Agent players. Any users who were impacted by this (primarily via signing Free Agent players whose value subsequently decreased after they purchased them) have been reimbursed an amount equal to the loss in negative value difference plus the difference in wages that are also too high for the current season due to the values being too high at the time these players were purchased. Any impacted users will be able to see the amount they have been credited back in their Finances > Transaction tab with the record listed as being of type ADJUSTMENT. The players you own that have been significantly impacted by this can relatively easily spotted out as being the players who you've purchased during this month and whose wage demand for next season is significantly higher than their wage demand for the current season. The few Academy that have been purchased were also significantly impacted by this same issue and those users have also been reimbursed the value differences.
  • Fixed a bug that could result in some player names having the ? character appear in them in place of another character
  • Renamed any players already in the game that contained a ? character in their name, to have a new name of the same nationality
  • Fixed a bug that made it possible for some players monthly renewal wages to be slightly below the minimum monthly wages of £30k

Update v0.5.0d [2018-08-15]
