Players Disappearing

GoldenGlove · 06-24-2006, 08:13 AM

I've been attempting to create a roster set, but have run into major issues. I am fully updated (although this was an issue before the patch as well). When I utilize the plyer movement option in the player editor, I can move the player to their correct team and level. But when I go to that team, he is nowhere to be seen. When searching the player, he is still there and his team and level are correct, but he does not show up as a player anywhere until I use the same movement option to move him to FA for his current league. Has this issue been found and is it possible that this can be looked at for the next patch? Thanks.

Bump.

GoldenGlove · 06-26-2006, 08:25 PM

I may have figured it out. This seems to happen when I set all I teams to NOT make any moves. When I switched it back and moved the players to FA and then back to the team, they reappear. This was not occuring before.

Could this be changed to moving a player to a MLB team's (or foreign team's) DFA instead of to a roster? It seems like the AI can't give the player a place because they aren't able to make moves, so it leaves the player in no-man's land.

GoldenGlove,

I'm sorry for the awfully slow response to this thread.

Obviously, some time has passed since you posted this issue, and the 1.0.2 patch has since been released as well. Are you still seeing this issue?

Please let me know!

Thanks,

Steve

I have experienced this same issue post-the most recent patch. I get around it by going to player search and going into the player's profile and setting them on my active roster that way. Then they appear on my active roster. But, if you look in my most recent post about Hayden Penn, you will see that the player still remains where he was originally (i.e. there is still a copy of him as a FA so he can be signed by another team and then you have 2 of the same player)

I need to find some way to replicate this issue before I have any chance of getting this resolved.

Does anyone perchance have a copy of a league wherein this is happen?

And if not, if you happen to see it again, please back up your league .dats and let me know ASAP!

You can replicate it easily I think. Just go into a league in your game, go to a free agent and edit him to be on your team. Then go to your team and he won't be there yet if you look in the player search, next to his name is says his league, team, level, etc. and then you have to set him on your active roster through his player profile.

I've noticed that since I started playing. Whenever i sign a free agent or aquire a guy via trade, i have to right click on his name and go to transaction and place him somewhere for him to show up.

Is he not in your Designated for Assignment screen?

That's where newly acquired players go by default.

I haven't seen the designated for assignment screen in that league.

There was a bug in prior versions where leagues without waivers had no waivers/DFA screen, so players "disappeared" in the manner you guys are describing.

I believe this has been addressed by now allowing you to access the DFA area through the drop-downs in the Transactions screen, even if your league does not have the Waiver rule enabled.

I'll let you know if I figure out more.

Does this make sense of anything you are seeing?

I suppose that would make sense as I disabled waivers when I created this league. However even with the patch, I cannot access the DFA through the drop down.

OK. Is this the same league you're going to zip for the crashing thread?

Yes it is.

Alright, let me see what I can figure out there.

If you notice anything let me know. I'm hoping everything can be resolved without losing this league.

Just hang onto that league file. We certainly don't want you to lose the league, either.

Hope it won't come to that!

This seems to happen when trying to move a player to a roster-size limited team such as MLB. This also happens when waivers are disabled. In this case, players disappear when they move to any team. Again, it seems to come back to normal when you allow AI teams to make moves, but this is really hampering roster creation and because I have not yet tested online leagues, I'm not sure the effect of this.

GoldenGlove · 08-03-2006, 04:31 PM

Has anyone been able to replicate this?
