Is the foreigners problem EVER going to get fixed?

RMc · 02-26-2013, 02:02 PM

New league with 12 teams: one subdivision in Japan, one in North America (5 in the US, 1 in Canada). Want only Japanese players on Japanese teams, Canadians on the Canada team. Set on "No Foreigners Allowed" and "Base Limit on Team Nationality". US teams fill up with Americans, the foreign teams...nothing. Won't add players no matter workaround I use. Sigh.

I can't be the only person who's had this problem. Is this ever going to fixed? Ever?

Hi, can you post a picture of your League's "Names & Affaliations", "Rules", and "Options" page in League Setup? Because I just tried to create a league like yours and I have no problem, so maybe it's just your setting is somehow off...

One thing that I've found to work because I had the same issue was to release all players and fill teams with fictional players. That workaround worked for me at least, so I thought I'd throw that out there.

Tried that. US and Japanese teams are about half-filled (won't add anymore) and the Canadian team had five players, all Canadians. Hm.

Don't work, hoss.

I swear that worked in the past, but I see what you mean and for some reasons it's only adding one or two players.

However, I was able to get this working by creating a fictional league, setting the nation for the teams, going into advanced mode and setting No foreigners allowed and base limit on team nationality and it worked fine as long as you set the limits before you click the start game button.

That's exactly what I did. Same thing happened as above.

Do you have an expansion draft?
