In addition to the final post-trading deadline roster update, this update adds a number of new user-requested ease-of-use features and a few new options. Your existing savegames will be compatible with the updated game, but some issues that are data-dependent may require a new game before you see them.

Changes:

-rosters for updated as of February 8 (i.e. NHL trading deadline and some immediately subsequent moves as rosters adjusted for the moves)
-added new csv output files: player_injuries.csv, player_injury_history.csv, injuries_data.csv, human_manager.csv, league_awards.csv, league_events.csv and draft_class.csv
-added new filter options added to manager news screen:

• -PM's (verious alert messages sent directly to the user)

• -Trade Rumors (all reported trade rumors, aside from those during the draft)
• -Transfers (all completed player transfers)
• -Waiver News (players exposed to waivers, aside from the automatic exposure for non-exempt minor leaguers at the start of the year, and successful waiver claims)
• -Signings (player signings that do not extend an exisiting contract)
• -Contract Extensions (player signings that extend an existing contract)

-added "add all players to watchlist" button in scouting reports that will place all players on the report on the watrchlist
-the option to stop simming if a player of a particular talent threshold becomes avalilable on waivers now can be set according to future talent (in addition to the existing talent option)
-added a "Clear Filtered" button on the Scouting Watch List screen, which remove all currently displayed players from the Watch List
-added rating value to the training program menu
-WHL playoff format is updated
-when a new league is added via the "Add New League" dialog the default contract basis values are now adjusted to match the league value of the new league, instead of a standard top-level league
-in fictional games, when a leauge's playoffs haven't completed when the World Cup or Olympics start, players from teams that are still active will not be eligible for international selection
-in Online Leagues, GM´s can now sign Staff and also resign Staff via the Team File

This is an awesome update!

Two big things stand out to me: the addition of more CSV files for creating webpages, and—even better—the fix for the contracts bug when adding leagues. This is going to make building complex custom universes so much easier.


Big thanks to the development team!
