Chemistry Report showing players not in the Organization ...

JT_Dutch · 11-01-2019, 01:18 PM

... There are quite a few fictional (?) players showing up - a couple of them showing positions (the two in my "Bad Relationship" list) and the rest of them showing no position at all. When these player names are clicked, nothing happens.

That's very odd, most of the guys listed without positions are real players, but ones that shouldn't be functional in the working database yet - just a collection of basic data about them that I'll build player ratings around and activate later. No idea how they could've shown up in a game. And there are some players, like Butch Deadmarsh, who are in the historical db, but from totally different eras (early 70's in his case.) Could you upload the save? (Instructions here) I'd definitely like to have a look at that.

It should be there ... it's called "Colichemardes87".

Got it, but when I load it the extra names aren't on the chemistry screen like in the screenshot, even though it's still the same day in the game. Weird. My suspicion was that something went wrong with the quickstart generation in a previous build of the game and those "ghost" players were included, but I can't even find Morton, Nadeau, etc. in your game via player search. I'll ask Malte if he's got any ideas as to what could've done this. But if you reload, I'm betting the screen will be back to normal for you.

That's exactly what happened. Appreciate you taking the time to look at it.
