Import Scheduling Problem

Jared · 08-28-2006, 11:48 PM

After having some fun learning the new game, I decided to finally import the 6.5 fictional league I had been playing since OOTP5. The 6.5 league had been set to start on April 1st every year, but when I imported I decided to change the scheduling to force start on the first Friday in April.

Since the 6.5 league had to be on opening day (April 1st) when I imported, and then in ootp2006 it went back to January 1st, I think this caused a problem.

When I got to April 1st, there were scheduled games. I played 3 games, then on Friday April 4th, I got the news about "opening day" and saw that I had a 3 game series against the team I just played.

Uh-oh.

So, is there any way to fix this? What's going to happen if I just keep playing...i.e. will I end up with a 165 game season? It's logged the stats from the first 3 games, so it's going to be a little annoying if I can't find a way to get around this. Anybody know how I can fix this?

The 6.5 schedule has been imported with the 6.5 league, too. Your changes to the start date are casuing the problems here. It will be better not to make such changes to the start date. You will need to adjust the schedule manually if you make such changes.

We have a rule that states that Tech Support threads wherein we have not received a response within 7 days will be closed.

This one meets this criteria, so I'm closing this.

If you want to discuss it again, just PM me with the thread link, and I'll re-open. (Don't just say "Hey, reopen my thread." I need to know the URL, thanks!)
