'Acquire chemistry' not possible to fulfill

TurboJ · 03-01-2025, 12:50 AM

I've had the owner request of acquiring a someone from a player's chemistry list a couple of times.

The problem is when every player on that list is already on my current team to begin with. When this mission focuses a young player, even a prospect, it will typically be impossible to fulfill, as the player has not had a chance to develop chemistry with anyone prior to the current team. This happens especially in historical mode where NHL draft prospects aren't on any 'real' team prior to their draft.

Easy solution would be to only let this mission run if a player's chemistry list includes an active player outside of own team roster.

This is already the case (at least in theory), the Owner Goal will only be handed out when at least one player not on the team is on the chemistry list.

In the past there was a display problem where the player profile page only listed the top5 chemistry players and the popup on the lines screen all but we changed this in one of the last updates so make sure your game is up to date.

Now that I think of it, it is possible that this issue happened with an older save that did not yet have the latest hotfix update.

One time this did happen with the previous game version, the one just before the Feb 19th hotfix. But at that time I could see the full list of chemistry players when hovering over the player on the 'lines' tab. It's just that the entire long list there consisted of only players that were present on my team.

I'll report back if I see the issue again with the latest update.
