What happened to Front Office on League Controls
 
There is no Front Office on the League Control menu. The manual states that there is but it is nowhere to be seen. The only way to look at current free agents is to go to league home...roster...free agents.....

ie; can we set how many players teams will protect for the draft as in past versions such as 15 or 18 etc...

I don't believe you can change it. It's typically the same.

It's more in the background now again instead of visual.

We switched in to align with OOTP. It's now "Transactions". I'll pass it on to Jeff to see if we can get it updated.

Yes, it was removed, it was part of the older tactics/coaching system that was replaced in FHM5.

You can go to Free Agent Center in your teams drop down menu.

Something I noticed during the last stream you guys did ... Jarmo Myllys was second in the NHL in save percentage on April 6 of 1997, and his team was listed as the Rochester Red Wings (I presume?).

Are minor leaguers included in the NHL stat leaders? Or did the game combine Myllys's numbers with Rochester and Detroit? Just found this to be a little unusual.

Are there some roles that work well with others and some that conflict with each other?

Trying to figure out if I just pick the best role for a player or if I select it based upon what his line mate's roles are.

I expanded the league and my team had no farm teams? I know in FHM 5 they automatically showed up. How do we get farm teams for expansion teams now?

Add them to another league via the structure editor for that league, then on your expansion team's team edit screen, set the new minor league team as one of its two farm teams.

They're listed with the team they're currently with, so if a player makes the leaderboard and then is sent to the minors, they'll show the minor league abbreviation until he gets called up or pushed out of the leaders. It's only counting the stats for the displayed league, not both leagues.

Does bringing up prospects to training camp have an impact on their development?

Is there a limit for expansion or adding teams per season?

If I play historical with evolution disabled and once I start the 1967-68 season there wouldn't be a problem with a 6 team expansion?

Editing questions:
If i edit say a 38 year old player and make them a 20 year old, change all of his attributes including his potential ratings, will this player develop like any other 20 year old?

No, at 38 it's almost certain that the start of his decline has been triggered, so his ratings will still go down despite the age change.

If they're under contract, only if you give them additional coaching time via the training screen. If they're not, i.e. you're an NHL team with them in camp via a tryout, then yes, it will help it unless your coaching is somehow worse than the team they're normally on.

I was told in another thread that when I couldn't start an historical league(1925) with disabled evolution and it said can't open folder then I did delete some stuff off my PC (recommended by JeffR)and it still wouldn't work but it did work for 1967 historical so it can't be for a lack of memory on my PC .

Would it be better to just create that 20 year old from scratch (create player)?

Yes, that player would develop normally.

Is there a way to make this player a restricted free agent when his elc is over? I have created young players and they always have unrestricted status.

GDawg 10-14-2019 03:25 PM

How do I add/distract/swap teams in historical mode? I now you can only do this only on July 1, but cant seem to find the right setting. Suppose I want to keep the Senators in the NHL in 1934, I don't see a possibility to do so in the offseason. I would like to change the divisions too.Thanks.

Edit: already found it, had to check box of league evolution.

The contract expiry status can't be edited directly, but if you just add his rights to a team on July 1 when he becomes a free agent, that'll turn him into a RFA for that league.
