Trade Block question

JayWigley · 07-22-2011, 02:40 PM

I apologize if this has been answered elsewhere, but I did search and didn't find it. . .

How do I remove a player from the League Trading Block if I have changed my mind and don't want to trade him away any more?

I think if you go to that player and hit the action button there are more options and I do believe that taking him off the block is one. I will have to check this as I do not have my iPad where I can boot up the game. I think it is in action on that player though. I think you can make him available or untouchable and then I think it offers you the option of taking him off the list. But I could be wrong.

All I see is to make the player "Available" but that seems like he would be released for any team to claim. . .I just don't want him shopped around any more. How do I do it? Or am I misunderstanding the options?

Ok, when you put them on the block the show up in the League menu Trade Block. When you set them to available, it does take them off the list, but I do not know if this does anything else to their status. If you are worried that it does something else you can set their status to untouchable. I think those two ways are the way to take them off the block.

I just tried this with one of my scrub prospects by sending him to the trade block and then setting him back to available. He was removed from the trade block and there appears to be no hit to his morale.

"Available" is the right action. When I implemented it from OOTP11 I had to ask Markus because I too stumbled about the "Available".

Ok, maybe I am dumb, what exactly does making the player available do?

Basically, a player can have 1 of 3 statuses:

Available: the normal status, you can get trade offers for a player.

Untouchable: you don't want to give up the player and no CPU team should make you an offer.

Trade Block: you don't need the player. Other teams will check the Trade Block and make offer (if they are in need of the player).
