Filter Free Agents by Service Time

whaleheader · 06-13-2018, 11:31 AM

How do you do it? I'm probably missing something obvious but I can't find a way to filter players with 1+ years of Major League service or all players with no major or minor league service.

Is there a way to print the complete list? I tried Reports but it only seems to print one page at a time. Again, I'm probably missing something obvious.

Thanks in advance.

if you go to report on the free agent page - then open report, you have the option to open in external browser. From there can print the entire list, as you could any web page. in my test, i got 22 pages for the 1294 players. it would print all the pages. i didn't see any way to sort out by years of service, just obvious stuff like age, name, pos. Even the FILTER didn't have number of years. might be there, but i didn't catch it.

When I select report I only get the current page. I'm not getting all the players.

when i select report, there is an option to open in an external browser. when the web page opens i can select print as i can from any web page, and all the pages are printed. under print preview you can see all the pages. works on my set-up. dunno ...

No there's no way to filter them like that.
The best you can do is sort them by that but no option to filter them.

The filter options really are a bit limited, We should be able to filter by any one of the view options

Make sure scroll is selected and not page in game preferences

OK, something in my install is broken. I went into setting and scroll was selected. I select page and restarted. I then selected scroll. When I restarted the game scroll was selected but page display is what I still have. I then hit reset and repeated the process. I still have page.

I checked the install on my other machine. It's working as intended. I've turned on the logs to see if I can find the error. Does anyone know specifically what I should be looking for? If I uninstall the game, do I have to backup my saved games directory and other modified stuff before I uninstall/reinstall?

if it's over 6000 or XXXX it will always uses pages instead of a scroll. if not 6000, some larger value.

if it's not a large number, maybe something is wrong?
