Historical Simmers-Missing Players

Well they were there then gone, but its an easy fix, I am gonna post exactly what happened in the bug forum, but here I will tell you how to correct it

1872-Brooklyn Atlantics, Brooklyn Eckfords and Middletown come into the league, so their players get dumped into the FA pool

However, when you go to Free Agents screen you can't sign them because they are not THERE!!!!

However, if you go to League setup, EDIT Free Agents they will show up and you can sign them to their repsective teams.

Small bug that I am sure Marcus can fix in the next patch

I think there is some weird issues with the database that does that not ootp. I am not sure of that mind you but i think i read somewhere that it was the case

This has always been the case. The new players that get dumped into the FA pool because the team abbreviations don't match up are not available until AFTER the FA signing period. These players are coming in for the amateur draft and the draft is held after the FA pool.

In leagues where you hold amateur drafts when the last day of the FA period is completed the amateur players pop up into the FA pool.
