Expansion Team History

BeachBum · 05-10-2008, 02:06 PM

I am playing a Historical League which I started in 1955. I am now in 1969 and when I look at the team history for the new expansion teams, the history goes back to 1955. It shows financial data for each but they are all the same for every year and there are zeroes for everything else.

This is not the case for the 1962 expansion teams. They only show history beginning in 1962.

I have version 8.0.0.13.

So you just expanded and saw this behavior? What happens if you sim ahead to the next regular season?

Yes I just expanded and this happened. I have played into June and the "history" still exists back to 1955. Also, on the team financial page it shows prior year financial and attendance information even though the team did not exist in the prior year.

I simmed ahead and after the playoffs the team history only shows the year 1969.

Appears to be some glitch in the first expansion year.

Unfortunately, this one has been previously logged and Markus said that it wasn't something that could be avoided. Since it does straighten itself out after a season, I think we'll have to stick with what we've got.
