Multiplayer Save Manager Issue

[BOHL-]

Hello, reporting something I am seeing and working around in my multiplayer league. When I try to remove a current manager (human), it will remove them but then the next human managers that remain receive news that is not from their organization.

Example: I remove the Kings, and now Vancouver (next on the list) receives the Kings news, or another team's news, like development reports, personal messages, etc. It appears that removing a manager changes something with the team code and messes up the rest of the managers personal news. Is there a workaround or should the file be uploaded?

This is a custom save by the way, BOHL.

Yeah, I think we'll need to see the save there. That sounds like something is broken with the manager ID numbers.

Jeff, the BOHL online league (custom) file is here again after noticing some things. Thank you for your help, and let me know if anything is unclear. I will PM you the password.

Things that need to be fixed:
-- After removing the Los Angeles Kings human manager, the rest of the human managed teams personal news turns out messed up. For example, the next team listed in the human managers, Vancouver Canucks, they receive the Los Angeles Kings personal news (development reports, personal news section area) after. I'm not sure if it's that exact team, but every human managed team has a different team's personal news in their inboxes. I can continue to sim without removing the Kings from the human managed section, but figured it's best to be looked at.

Couple things I noticed:
-- At some point during a sim, when looking at an AHL team there are duplicates of almost every player on the roster, and when I reload the game it resets back to normal. I saw in a previous post that you said it was a UI error but has been an occasional recurring thing. Some prospects will show up twice in the prospect rankings as well for example, but is fixed when the game reloads.
-- We are using a custom playoff format with conferences separated, but the 1 and 2 seed are each in the same portion of the bracket in both conferences and end up playing in the second round rather than the conference final. Is there a way to fix that?

The file is uploaded as "BOHL-ManagerRemovalProblem.lg.zip", if there's anything you need I will be active this whole week, hoping for a quick turnaround for both our sakes! Thank you for your help and time!

Thanks, we'll have a look. I don't think we'll be able to change the bracket format in the save, but we may be able to turn re-seeding on, if that's preferable to the way it is now?

That works! Thank you!

Looks like it was a bug, so the only safe way to remove a human manager from this save would be for us to edit it manually. If you'd like us to remove the one from LA, send the file and we can do that.

Oh okay, it's fine.

Is there anything I can do about duplicated players, primarily in AHL? Does it effect anything? When reloaded it is fixed but is it something I need to watch or do?
