It's my understanding from asking this question before that when you receive an offer like this the game has made a static set of decisions (think of it like a flow diagram) to be able to open up the cap space in order for them to be able to complete the trade they have specified. When you go in to discuss the trade it becomes independent from this message and the game re-evaluates its own situation and realises it doesn't have the cap space to make that trade (without making the required moves that it had determined before). So if you're going to accept those trades you've gotta do it from the initial message or yeah, prepare to be met with a fair amount of these messages from teams that don't have cap space!

Started a new save on the beta update. It has crashed for me 3 times between the dates March 3rd and March 12th. :/

Edit: Okay, I noticed that it didn't crash but it takes forever to load sometimes, longer than usual.

Open Beta version updated to .104, changes are:

-removed the system that adjusts player birth dates in the WHL/OHL/QMJHL if they're outside the usual league age range (which was making 15-year-olds with exceptional player status in real life older than they should be)
-fixed issue with contract limits at the start of the game that was releasing some players from NHL rosters
-fixed potential crash in edited historical mode games if the playoff system requires a number of conferences/divisions different than the league structure)
-the arena graphic for the new Shots tab on the Boxscore is no longer cut off at the bottom in most resolutions
-the contract negotiation screen now allows salaries higher than $20000000 to be entered by the user
-updated modern and historical preset files (modern preset adds a few missing injuries and corrects the length for some guys who were expected to come back but have missed the whole season, historical adds some new entries and fixes a few data formatting errors)
-blockbuster-type deals at the trade deadline will no longer occur between two teams both in Win Urgently mode
-in historical games (only), the chance that the AI mis-identifies a player as having the "unpredictable" tag (that causes their potential to vary) has been removed (that feature isn't used in historical, so it doesn't make sense to have the AI try to react to it; the AI was making some strange draft picks as a result)
-after nominating a player during the Verbal Commitments draft and winning the competition for him, the user will no longer see the National Signing Day version of the response message
-fixed issue in trade logic that was causing teams looking to make a trade for a draft pick in the days just prior to the draft to focus only on 7th-round picks
-changed foreigners-dressed limits for foreign teams in the Mestis, Suomi-Sarja, and DEL-2 - the previous setting was allowing Zemgale and Tilburg (if they were promoted to DEL-2) to have full teams of non-Europeans. Also adjusted the same setting in the KHL to get Kunlun to use an appropriate number of foreign players
-fixed crash when clicking the back button (or using the mouse shortcut) to back out of a player profile after opening it from a link in the boxscore
-corrected season in the check for success in t the new Florida historical challenge
-fixed issue with the activation of a cap in mid-game in historical mode that was breaking the finances for a few teams
-when the second Penalty Kill 3 on 4 unit is selected on the Unit tab of the Tactics screen, the Fit Scores will now appear properly instead of all being shown as "-"
-added "Compare Players" to the Action menu on player info screen
-added Height/Weight/Shoots to compare player
-fixed watch list sorting after returning to it from player screen
-fixed short list selection when returning to it from player screen

The fixes are all testing fine so far, so this will likely turn into the full release very soon unless some critical issue is discovered today.

Will this update address the issue where a player will not sign because they don't want to be an offensive forward because they would rather be an offensive forward?

I ask because I am on the verge of losing another player to this and I really don't want to lose them.

Thanks

I asked this near the top of the thread and got this answer confirming, yes it should fix that.

JeffR:
That's what it fixes, yeah. The "reject" and "request" lists for a couple of templates accidentally had some overlap.

Thanks. I didn't see it it Jeff's latest list so I got a bit concerned.

Upon further review, it doesn't look like this fix made it in. Unless I am doing something wrong or the update doesn't affect certain players?
