Thanks a lot. Probably, in next update you will make Duchene-Turris 3-way trade

Or if I right click and have someone replaced by another player it shouldn't resort the list back by points. Just leave it the way i have it until I go somewhere else and return by the menu icon.

Yup, still on our to-do list. There's a group of a few similar UI things like that which should probably all get done at once, when we can carve the time out for them.

Depends on the change. Most things that were data-related (e.g. the new historical ratings change, the Orlando crash, fixes to historical playoff rules and roster sizes, the possible Finnish schedule problem) will need a new game. Things like the comparison screen, the speed improvements, bride contracts, and expansion takeover crash will work on an existing game.

Definitely would like to see that save, since it's happening to someone else as well it may be a broader problem, but the save would at least point us to what's going on.

If you give me a heads up on when that might be worked on I can take some time and create a better list of things I see.

For example, the game knows I'm in preseason, so if I go to look at stats on my roster screen it should default to preseason. Just to make it more intuitive and save clicks here and there.

Grr JeffR why couldnt we use U18 U17 etc tournaments in Historical mode and play for Chilliwack bruins in historical mode lol...

Why is the name of the team that you're managing now in all caps like this CALGARY FLAMES while every other team is normal? This is extremely annoying and I'm not sure why this was added. It just looks dumb

It's intended to highlight your team in leaguewide lists like standings.or draft logs, something that was a repeated request.

[tward13]

Funny, but I agree with Kinsella. I find it more annoying than anything. I know my team's name and can find it easily enough.

I suspect the request was more likely "Can you highlight my team in the standings?" and the choice to use capital letters was the implementation the dev team chose.

I agree it looks awful—using a different colour, like in emails, would have made more sense IMO.

100% agree.

My OCD is going nuts seeing my team's name in capital letters...it just looks very wrong.

Not a fan of any of the skin-based changes in FHM4 TBH—the heavier font looks awful and has a negative affect on legibility. Much prefer the FHM3 skin.

One more thing. At least in my Original Six era historical league. If you go to standings while in the playoffs, the larger box for the final series is so dark you can barely see the teams and the current status of the series.

[jldante56]

The compare player feature is a nice add - Thanks!

The data total at the bottom of the team history has moved to the left.

It is bugging the living hell out of me. My OCD is acting up as well.

Huh, not sure how that happened, I don't think we touched anything on the team history screen in this update. We'll fix it.

Not getting this when I check it, it's the same as the other boxes for previous rounds and completely legible. Can you post a screenshot of what you're seeing?

[micpringle]

Jeff—any thoughts on my suggestion to provide an option to remove Facegen images from the Player Info popups? (See previous page for more)

Started a game in 1981, only allows 19 players to be dressed, is this a thing?!? thanks
