Random Debut, Draft Import Repeat Issue

Painmantle · 11-05-2013, 09:03 AM

I'm having an issue in a small Online League I run. It uses random debut, we are up to the 1921 Draft and never had an issue, but for some reason this year the game is importing the EXACT same draft class as the 1920 draft had, I'm taking the exact same players here. to the point of when you look at the draft pool and click on the players it has their stats from the previous year and team from the season we just completed. Any help here would be tremendous , Thanks

I found a work around for this issue. I changed the date the draft pool was revealed to a sooner date, ran up until this date, deleted the draft pool, changed the date the draft pool was revealed to another date in the future and simmed up until this date and the game created a new draft pool with different players in it.

Annoying but it is a solution that worked...so we move on now!

Alright, it just got worse. When I deleted the repeated pool it deleted all the rookies from the previous year.

I need to re-open this thread. I'm still having issues with this. After further investigation, the game is duplicating 34 players from the previous draft, player ID and all. When you go to the draft pool and look at the players in question you see their stats from the previous year..All of the players were in the rookie draft last year, and they are appearing in the Draft Pool this year.

It is an 8 team league, and producing 12 rounds of players for a 10 round draft...so there are 96 players in the pool but 34 of them are players who as mentioned, were in the draft last season and played in the past year

Anyone who has ANY IDEA how to fix this or work around it please let me know!!!

I have no clue how to fix this, but I'll give the thread a bump and suggest reporting this as a bug, as it appears to have repeated itself in your game.

This sucks because I'm really enjoying my Random Debut dynasty and I hope I don't ever see something like this, or worse, somehow fail to notice it.

It didn't necessarily repeat its self, I went back and restored the game to a pre draft pool date and it has repeated it's self in the same game at the same time. Which is good because I have the files to send in and ic will repeat (I've advanced the files several times and it happens every time)

Thanks for the bump

No problem. I'll be keeping my eyes peeled for this issue, but I'm a bit of a slowpoke, so it could take a while until I reach the next draft.

Just for the record, this turned our to not be a Bug at all, but a, to quote Markus "Slightly corrupted file" I would like to Thanks Bowtie and Markus as well as the whole OOTP team for promptly addressing and fixing my file so our League could continue.

You guys are AWESOME! Thanks!!!!!
