i´ve improved internet explorer experience, though the only explorer version I will attend to is 7 (IE 6 is too buggy for a developer working on free software to worry about). For IE 7, there are only a couple more things that I need to review, like formation screen alignment. But the changes I´ve made so far should already make a good difference.

cheers!

Today I’ve finally implemented penalty shootouts for national cup rounds tie-break. After lots of fair complains about the unfair the-team-who-plays-first-leg-at-home-wins rule we now can have a real winner. We’ll see that in place soon.

Cheers.

On finance screen you can see the team balance when the period being displayed started so you’ll be able to analyze your balance over time without having to do any calculation :-)

Your current balance is still displayed below. For existing periods the “history” balance will display 0, it will start working for new periods to come.

-changed the way aggressiveness is generated so that too low and too high values less likely to exist
-when the dimension starts, all non youth players will start with stamina = 100
-reduced the difference between leagues: new second division youths will have slightly better skills

Match report now informs who takes the penalty kick (and it is also easier to score a penalty kick). Number of fouls reduced slightly.

Implemented the first version of our individual player history screen.

We will add more history info to teams and players, those are only the initial screens.

Now It is possible to view the team players history. Check it out on your team players screen, under History “tab”. I am also planning to implement individual player full history (very soon). Stay tuned!

Of course that it is only the beginning. In future we may show a lot more info there.

I also improved the top scorers list.

As promised, we have some improvements on match.

- More realistic fouls and card numbers. (That includes less chances to get a another yellow card (red), if your player already have one)
- A couple bug fixes

Those changes should bring a good change on matches. But we are still planning a lot of tweaks, stay tuned!

ps: we did not tweak the rating system yet.

Top scorers done. Please note that I had to implement player history in order to do that (we did not have this before), that is why we have a low number of goals.

formations screen now has gray lines under IE too. also, I moved some elements in order to be able to put the player stats closer to the field.

I also added a few links on a few game screens and fixed the stamina bug (player stamina was not being charged after a game).

WOHOO!!!!

Formations Screen (D&D): WORKS ON IE. I spent the whole night trying to do that, but it works now!
We have a small new bug (bold / unbold players) that happens sometimes, but that is much better than IE not working (and I will fix it very soon). Also, the D&D performance is dramatically improved.

Other than that, this screen is much more flexible now. Players will only be removed from the field if you drop another player on the same position.

Match engine: players now try to avoid passing to offside teammates and try to avoid being offside.

Friendly invitations are now received by email rightaway (so the receiving manager has more time to accept it).
