Manually moving drafted players causes issues.

Subliminal · 11-19-2020, 11:05 AM

During our recent draft I made a wrong pick for a team. To fix it what I normally do is pick the player the team actually wanted for a computer team and then manually move the players. In the past I believe this used to take them off the old teams negotiate list. It does not do that anymore. Players still show up in the old teams negotiate list and can be given offers and can still sign with the old team. It's an easy fix to trade them after the fact but mildly irritating when I have to do.

Can the default action for when this occurs be to have the players show up in the new teams negotiate list? That would be the best case scenario.

How to reproduce: Do a draft and at any point during the draft manually swap players between teams. Then end the draft and check the negotiate lists for each team.

We can probably take a look at this for 22 but if you need to move players, ideally I would suggest waiting until after the draft is finished to do so. Just a lot less potential for weirdness that way.

Yes, that is what we'll do. I had to change a bunch of things in the player history (no big deal) but a couple of Bad Things[tm] happened. One of the players was drafted twice. I had to fix up my manually created draft table that we use to keep track of draft picks because there is no way of editing their draft data in game.

If possible for 22 could you also look at adding in the capability of editing the players draft data? It would make life a lot easier when things like this happen.

Thanks for the info, appreciate it!
