Commissioner Mode confusion

[JArrr31]

Just created (game date is now 08.21.15) a full game with NHL, AHL & CHL leagues and am wanting to control all aspects of all teams in all leagues, so, a few newbie statements hopefully someone can help me with:


- I have commish mode checked, yet cannot do simple line adjustments (make backup goalie primary, etc)


- When I right click on any player on any team almost all the options are greyed out (except for change jersey number and add to shortlist)


- Utica of the AHL happens to have no goalies on the roster, so I went to add one from Vancouvers list of contracted players (clicked on individual player, then edit button) switched current team to Utica and save.....nothing happens except a '(P)' is now listed next to player??


It generally seems I cannot do anything, even though commish mode is checked. I must be missing something big here.....PLEASE HELP

It seems like you are trying to do more managerial tasks. Commissioner mode is more for editing players, editing league rules, etc. While these features you requested would be nice to have in Commish mode, I don't think they are.

So, in order to do the managerial tasks I must 'take over team' for each and every team one at a time ?!?


There is no "Act as..." type feature to make roster adjustments like OOTP??

Not at this current time. It is something being looked at by the way.

However the AI will correct that issue, and being that it was off-season there was time for that to happen. If the AI notices an imbalance (such as no goalies), it will correct it in the next few days.
