What happens when a team doesn't have enough players to play a game?

This was a major problem with FHM1 and FHM2 and didn't play FHM3 enough to find out if this still is a problem.

Since I play(in commish mode) with a custom league and a minor league there is no way that I am going to check 62 team rosters before every day to check too see if rosters are at the max.

I mention this because the first custom game I formed is now crashing(I think it's on Oct. 20th) .

OOTP always had a pop-up to warn if a team had too few players or too many players on a team's roster so you could correct the problem.

The computer should always be able to ice a complete team (it would generate new player if needed) but knowing your style of play it is hard to tell what happens.

Best would be if you could upload the save and we look what happens.

Sorry-I am to computers what the Toronto Maple Leafs are to Stanley Cup Victory Parades.

I haven't done any player editing so I am dumbfounded why it crashed.

This should explain it:

It would be very important to look in your save, otherwise it is next to impossible for us to see what is wrong in your setup.

I previously mentioned to Jeff that I couldn't figure out how too do it.

We both figured out why another custom legue was crashing because there was no minor league schedule. It couldn't handle a divisional set-up of 8-7-6-10 teams(see crashes ,crashes and more crashes thread #41).

I had a similar issue. I'm playing as the Vegas Knights and my ECHL affiliate couldn't put a team on the ice, even though there were 20 players dressed.

May have been the ECHL rule that requires 14 of the players to be non-veterans, but you shouldn't have been getting that warning in your game; the AI running them should just make the necessary adjustments on its own. Do you happen to still have the save at that point?

I dont, I don't unclicked the league and continued with just the Knights/Wolves.
