7.070 Discrepancy in Fictional Teams' Divisions

[DirkGildun]

I'm trying to create a fictional 32-team league of fictional players and teams. I've tried creating this league by using the League Editor to either delete all of the default NFL teams and add my fictional teams, or change all of the default NFL teams to my fictional teams.

The problem with either approach is that no matter what fictional divisions I assign my teams to, they are assigned to different divisions (randomly?) for purposes of game scheduling and on the Standings page.

When I go back into the League Editor, the teams still show the divisions I assigned them to, but they still do not match what's on the Standings page.

I've tried this several times now, changing the order of the default teams I change (alphabetically, by original division, etc.), and I get the same problem each time.

What he said. And more...

My game crashes when I give it too many new teams to place into divisions. One of the overriding attractions of a text sim is the ability to create a sports universe of your very own. It is the prime reason I purchased this game. It is a great disappointment that the game cannot handle these maneuvers. I am no novice. I've owned and worked on customizing my text sims for over a decade.

Frankly, I'm surprised this bug has not yet been fixed. Why on Earth are we fixing draft information and the unrealistic numbers of TEs in the draft when there's a glaring shortcoming begging to be fixed?

Creating a football universe was one of the selling points of this game. It has terrific potential, but it will never be what it can until the platform is stable. Fixing the Swap button won't matter when the team itself doesn't even appear on the Standings screen.

Until then, I will wait patiently, but if another sim out there can do more, I'm afraid I will move on.

I couldn't agree more.
