Is there a way to change the default tactic that automatically shows up in the fixture screen?

For instance, i have a tactic called “A”. In all matches i have to change from Default to A. It wouldn’t be much of an issue if i could load tactic A and save it under Default without having to do it all over again, i don’t think we can do that yet.

Cheers.

No it is not possible. You should configure the default tactic to be the one you use most, otherwise you’d have to change the tactic for each match where you don’t want to use default.

I see. A “set tactic as default” button would come in hand though. ;)

Our first ideia was to let the manager set any tactic as defaut, but then we changed the design to what we have now. What would this button you’re suggesting do?

Imagine you have a 4-4-2 and a 4-3-3 formation saved on your profile, and a 3-5-2 under Default. As it is right now it’s not possible to save that 3-5-2 from the Default without creating a new one named 3-5-2 and building the tactic all over again. A “save tactic as…” would do that.

The “set tactic as default” would be useful to load one of your other tactics (4-4-2 or 4-3-3 in the example) and put it under Default, so whenever you chose, ie, that from now on you’d like to start playing a 4-4-2 instead of 3-5-2, you didn’t have to click Default and manually copy what you had under 4-4-2.

I used to MO the whole season in Soccersim, but there were always problems with it as the cups and friendly matches came along. I can live with having to go to the fixture screen and set every match with the desired tactic, but i think this would save me a lot of time.

I’m not sure if i was clear. The example was given considering you had all your matches scheduled to play with the default tactic.

Cheers.

P.S – Was about to ask how to take players off the pitch but i figured that out. At first i thought i was sending the player to the substitutes lol.

I see, we do need an improved way to manage formations.

Thank you guys.

Had the same problem: you must create the tactic before saving, it’s different from what we had in Soccersim, which we could create a new tactic while we saved it.

Exactly Thiago, and when you create a new tactic it is not displayed right away, you must click on it before.

That’s mostly because we are ‘used’ to consider these things (tactics/formation and players) as different things in the game. So we set up the team’s formation, and the players were assigned to the positions we decided before.

Here, it’s much more like managerzone, I guess. The players themselves determine the team’s formation.
