i’m down with gabriel on this one! It would spoil the fun of the game! i think a good sugestion is the hotlist like we had in the old days back on ms so we can keep tracking the players ourselves!
cheers
i had the same question, thanks for the answer gabriel
cheers
its looking much better now! great work guys, thank you for everything!
cheers
The 404 errors happened due to changes on our environment to improve user experience. It is being a painful process and we may need to tweak it a little bit more, hopefully without unavailability periods (at least no longer than a few seconds)
Cheers.
It took some time until someone finally decided to ask this in the forums :-)
Unfortunately the answer is no, but we’ll have Home advantage in the future. The only advantage for now is that the home team earns money from the tickets sold :-D
In the logic of the actual matches themselves in RubySoccer, does the game engine take Home advantage into account at all giving the Home team a very slight advantage over the Away team? Is there any concept at all of home advantage in the system?
I’ve had a few “404 – unable to display this page” errors today, intermittently, but apart from that it’s been good.
We’d need to change the message system a little bit to implement that, as your sent messages would disappear when the other manager deleted them. Let’s see :-)
Cheers.
I think it wouldn’t be good if we had that. Not knowing how much a player has improved is part of the fun when you need to decide if a player is worth buying or selling. :-)
Cheers.
Could you add a “Sent Messages” option to the messages page, so I can keep track of what messages I’ve sent to other managers?
I’ve been making offers for players who are not on the transfer list, and it’s awkward keeping track of which managers I’ve made offers to for which players …
Would it be possible to show, in the player history screen, a view of how the player’s attributes (and $ value) have changed over time?
I’m thinking of a grid where the columns are the attributes (Tackling, Speed, Shooting etc) and each row is a time when an attribute has changed, with the season/turn number. So it might look like a bigger version of:
Player: Matt Barton
Turn Tk Sp Sh $ value
S1/T1 78 68 54 $250,000
S1/T24 79 68 54 $255,000
S1/T48 79 70 54 $262,000
If the transfer system was slightly less automatic then the managers selling players could veto bids from specific clubs without there needing to be a systemic solution for “boycotting” sales to particular clubs. It would be difficult to implement that in a way that would please 100% of the players.
So how about this? …
When selling a player, the selling manager defines how much he wants to sell the player for. Currently any bids matching this amount are automatically accepted, and the sale can go through without the selling mgame allows the buying manager to make an offer (which could, for example be lower than the seller wants) – the seller can then either accept or reject the offer (or make a counter-offer).
If you didn’t want to completely let go of the idea of automatic bid acceptance, then perhaps the selling manager could tick a box to choose between either automatically accepting all bids that match the asking price (as now), or manually reviewing all bids, regardless of amount.
This might even boost the activity in the market a bid – we’ve all seen the players on the transfer list with huge asking prces – $10m for a player rated as $1.5m for example – that player might even get sold if I was able to offer, say $2m.
I am working on a new screen where you will be able to define strategies, including subst rules. So you can define one set of rules for each one of your formations. I really like your idea of defining defaults for types of matches. I will add that to our list. If we consider that idea, our future strategies screen and what we already have, the majority of problems related to squad rotation will be gone.
yep, just to confirm :) all set then, thanks!
Right, I tested both the minute you fixed, firefox first before fix, ie after fix lol I always use firefox but I remembered to test with ie… Now it’s fine in both browsers… No advantages to Microsoft… That’s why I wrote “Can you clear this reply”… It was posted the very next minute…
but it works on both now, right ? :)
This is probably written somewhere already but as I didn’t find it… Here it goes (again)…
It would be very useful to define substitutes per squad, so that our best players don’t consume their stamina in frindlies, this happens to me all the time… Defining a set of subsitutes (like 5) would be great, so that if a player is missing it will be picked one from these list and not from all the team!
Who cares if a junior replaces a B squad player! But it sucks when you find out your master player, your MoM favorite is in 80s or 70s or 50s because he played a set of friendlies and league games!
Also setting penalty taker would be awesome… (I’ve read this before…)
And another thing, just an idea, would it be easy to associate squads with type of games, like this, Default is for all now, then you can set B squad → friendlies, and all frindlies get B squad (auto), CUP matches → CUP Squad (auto), etc… You get the idea right, but this one is not very important, the substitutes are… cheers…
I forgot to mention, the browser in use was firefox (I believe this info is important). Actually in ie 7 it sorts ok… with no error… Well I was writing at the same time… Can you clear this reply lol
fixed. cheers!
fixed the sort bug too. thanks for reporting.
cheers
I managed to complete my lineup.

Added support for field positions without players. An example situation where the manager takes advantage on that is when the manager´s team change. In this case, the field positions are kept with gray icons – so the manager has the possibility to reassign new players to the formation without having to remember what was done for the previous team.
Also improved formation´s screen performance.
it happened because i had a problem on my network when i was restarting the server. it should be working now (please let me know).
I will talk to Gabriel about what we can do to workaround the consequences.
cheers
I confirm this bug. Something similar is happening if you want to rank the contract length of the players.

i wanna change my squad,but clicking on formation button gives me ( and thanks to that i lost 9-0 to hansa rostock because my youth team was still on…would be nice if i could get a rematch from the Gm’s because it was a cupmatch… :

In general it is good (much better than the previous server.) In the busy hours, sometimes, it takes a while to open pages.
But hey… for a free game it is very good.
cheers
Doesn’t sound bad, I’ll discuss that with Danilo.
Cheers.
One possible solution would be to paginate this screen. Would that work for you guys? We didnt paginate it so far because we thought that it would be interesting to see all the transfer players always.
boycott: why not ? It’s like having rivals or “enemies” in RL … some clubs you just don’t like or you have made bad experiences with the other manager …
but: you shouldn’t be allowed to blck more than, let’s say, 25% of all (not a.i. managed) clubs worldwide.
