New to FHM - Couple Issues/Questions

afterdark79 · 02-12-2019, 03:46 AM

Hello,

I've had FHM 5 for a couple days now and I am enjoying it. I am stuck on a couple things though and would appreciate any thoughts/help. I am currently playing a NHL season with Ottawa.

1. I am in my 2nd season and I brought a prospect who just turned 20 to my NHL team from his Jr team. During the pre-season when I dressed him and auto-generated lines, he was never added to a line even though he was dressed. The same happens now on my farm team. He is a top prospect, but for some reason isn't getting dressed. Any idea why he isn't getting picked up in the auto lines? Maybe I didn't bring him from Jr to the NHL team properly?

2. I have control of my farm team and have it set to Use Best Prospects, but the team consistently puts vets above my top prospects when it creates lines. Is there anything I can do about this?

3. Is there a way to invite prospects to training camp?

Thanks

That first one sounds like a possible error with his roster status. Could you upload the save (instructions here) and we'll take a look at it?

The "Best Prospects" setting will give the prospects more preference, but if there's a very big difference in talent level (e.g. the veterans' current level is better than the potential of the prospects), the veterans will still be used more.

No way to invite prospects to training camp yet, other than getting them under contract and keeping them on your roster during the exhibition season.
