I became worried for a few minutes until I looked at the code. The problem is only in the full match replay, not in the match simulation, so don’t worry, your players are playing in the side you positioned them, not in the opposite one :-)
Cheers!
I was seeing de full match replay for my games and I saw that the team formation is not the same than is in the formation screen. The players that I have in the right side appear in the left side and the players in the left side appears in the right side.
Is that a problem in the full match replay or is a problem in the game formation? All my players that have been playing in the sides have bad performance in the game.
Cheers!

Posted on the admins only topic by Pinto:
“Is the full match replay already working? Does it work with Firefox 2?”
The answer is yes, if yours is not working it`s probably due to enconding problems, characters like `ã` in the player names could cause that. We’re working to fix it.
Cheers!
Hey Rodrigo,
For now I will only comment one thing: a screen like managersim´s strategy for attack and defense is in our plans. I was going to implement that a couple months ago, but decided to go for the position changes / substitution rules first. Maybe I will do that one next, who knows….
The problem is we have a lot do to, not only in the match engine. I hope we can fit everything in as fast as possible!
cheers and thanks for your post.
It remembered me when I played soccer in little courts and the goalie lauched the ball through all the court until it reaches the attacker! In Rubysoccer, when this didn’t happen, then the defender passed the ball to the center midfield and then he passed to the center attacker! Besides, Gabriel was right some time ago previewing that every player would be running after the ball, it was hilarious! And what some miracle saves made by the Gks!! They’re rocks!!!
Now, talking serious, I noticed other things (because I had players playing at the center). In my game there was no play on the sides, I felt like was playing without at least 2 players, since my left and right wings didn’t saw the ball’s colour! They were use completely useless…
I noticed another middle problem, too, the gaps between the middle and the defence… You must have someone playing in D C +1 and another in M C -1, or you’ll have a huge hole. However, I must say that my defender playing in DC -1 was playing very well anticipating the attackers and stealing the ball.
I suggest that the game has an strategy configuration (similar to Managersim or better) that could tell a player where he has to play… With the ball, for example, you go forward and left (to be better tham MS, he could take short or long runs). Without the ball, you have to cover an area… This one could solve the hole problems.
As a lat observation, I think we should think about how quick the engine changes should happen. I don’t know how you guys are going to do it, but like was said there’s a lot to do… and if we wait and the changes didn’t work? I think you could do a little research to see what players think of it, but I think that a change in the engine (unlike the changes in players side and positions) affects everybody equally. Just warn us about what was changed (and which is the intention) and we’ll be prepared. What do you think?
Cheers!
That is also the first thing I did when I saw the replay working (laughed a lot). It is very funny to see the imature state of our player AI :).
Anyway, we always knew that we needed to improve a lot on it. Now we will have everybody’s help :).
cheers!
I liked the suggestion to improve the match engine between seasons (that would mean between MediumTicker seasons). Totally agree about the 4 players line problem, my ideia is to place the players on those intermediate positions in the match instead of creating extra positions in the formation screen. We just need to make sure that doesn’t break anything in the match.
The important thing is that now everybody can see what happened during a match and give us feedback about it. We know there is a lot to do on that matter and it will require patience from all of you guys. Let’s see if we can deliver an improved engine every MediumTicker season.
Cheers!
p.s.: I liked the married vs singles analogy, it really looks like that! :-D
This error will happen when the replay is incomplete due to some specific characters like ‘ã’. We’re waiting for a new release of our programming language to fix that, I’m seriously thinking about removing this kind of character in the meanwhile…we’ll see.
Cheers!
The economy model is doing fine :) now, with match replay we can see some serious stuff to improve…
I had noticed that playing 4-4-2 without middle position was like having a hole in the tactic! It is notorious! It’s not just a hole, it’s huge, like a highway to your own net!!!
I would be carefull with game engine changes because tactics will have success/unsuccess depending on it and players can get very disappointed with bug fix unsuccess… Perhaps improving game engine in the end of the season, from season to season is a good method, anyway, it’s just a suggestion.
About game engine, definitely, the number of positions should change, today we have L LC C RC R but this doesn’t work with 4 players!
It’s not apropriate, we should have more inner positions, a 4 player position would be like between L and LC, between LC and C, between C and RC and between RC and R.
What happens now is that if you play with 4 (by side) there will be a hole somewhere! I think this works like a big bug.
And this would be the first suggestion, I don’t remember laughing so much and so long, the technology is simply fantastic but the game remembers a singles vs married!!!
Cheers
Match replay for national cup game Leiria-Maritimo

java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 1

Danilo already fixed the authorization bug, now everybody can access the replay (requires java 1.4 or later). Another know bug: if you have a player with the character ‘ã’ within his name you’ll probably be unable to watch the replay.
Of course not! :-)
Now that we have an initial version of the match replay running I’ll be able to look into it.
Cheers!
Hi Gabriel.
Have you forgotten about me? :-)
Now my problem is with another goalkeeper. I want to transfer list him and I receive the message that my squad is already too small. I have 4 goalkeepers (including the youth one) and 26 professional players.
I don’t think that my squad is already too small…
Cheers!
I had feedback that non admin users are not able to see the replay (and I know the reason). Also I had an error while loading the replay. Tonight things may be fixed…or not :-)
Cheers!
Mostly thanks to Gabriel we now have our first version of the full Match Replay. It was released in a hurry, so improvements are inevitable.
cheers!
The full match replay is now available at the match report. Java-enabled browsers are required.
Yeah, looks like an long updated, the previous FastTicker league tick an in about 25 minutes, not sure why this one took so long…maybe our host is slower today. We’ll keep an eye on it anyway :-)
Cheers!
It completed… guess it was just a long update!
Hi Gabriel! Kick the server!
Ops, my fault :-)
Now you should be able to do that.
Cheers!
Hi,
Since we now can offer a proposal below the defined value, shouldn’t this validation be made when we try to realy make a proposal instead of before?
If a player now costs 20.000.000 and I have only 10.000.000, I cannot offer the maximum amount of money that I have (10.000.000)
Regards
Enabled teams in bad shape to always be able to hire players in free transfer, within a reasonable wage (and following other game rules).
fixed. posted on announcements.
cheers!
hey Guys. I will take a look.
cheers
Well, I wanna get some Free transfer people in :)… help me out here :)…. ask if Danilo can fix this
Sorry Sly, I’m kinda stuck with the match replay right now. Maybe Danilo could do it, even tough I took care of this whole transfers and contracts thing :-D
Cheers!
When will this be applied? I can’t do anything at the moment :(
You may be low on money relatively to your wages expenses. We have an enhancement on our list to allow you to hire free or cheap players with limited wage even when low or negative on money.
Cheers!
Why am I getting this msg when trying to get someone from the free transfer? Have I reached my wage limit and the board or “protecting” me? I can’t offer any amount, 0-1000…. doesn’t work…
Central players you can use on positions LC, C and RC, but not on positions L and R.
So you have 5 positions on the field. And on each position -1, 0 and +1
DL DLC DC DRC DR
ML MLC MC MRC MR
AL ALC AC ARC AR
You have only 4 positions in your example so I guess you don’t use a player on the C position. So your
DC-players can play on positions 3 and 4, MC on 7 and 8 and AC on 10 and 11.
As long as they don’t play on the wings your central players wont be punished.
R-player can play on position R and RC
Cheers
