changed[Loan] - Now, when you send a footballer out on loan during the summer transfer window, you can choose the loan duration: six months or a year. Important note: if the footballer has only six months left on their contract, you cannot send them on loan for a year.
changed[Loan] - Now, if you send a footballer on loan in August rather than July, you pay slightly less. Overall, we have slightly adjusted the costs of sending footballers out.
changed[Loan] - When you send your footballer out on loan, the receiving club uses an improved AI for squad selection (it uses the same AI as match viewing - this is a much slower algorithm, but it goes unnoticed given the small number of clubs using this AI). Thanks to this improvement, clubs will make smarter decisions about fielding your footballer if they make the starting lineup.
added[Loan] - We added a "To Watchlist" button to the profile screen of a footballer you have brought in on loan, so you can easily add them to your watchlist.
changed[Match Viewing] - Previously, when watching matches across different leagues, your league's games could appear first depending on where you play. Because of this, by the time your match came around, you might have lost context. Now, when you schedule a large number of matches to watch, your league's matches are shown last.
changed[Match Viewing] - When you open the team comparison screen for a scheduled match, you will now see a "Standings" button that opens the tournament screen for the match you are watching. This lets you view the current positions of those teams.

  • [Text] - We made numerous improvements to the Korean localisation.

  • [Bugs] - In the national team editor, you could not save a modification if you altered the World Cup participants (for example, swapping Croatia for Italy).

  • [Crash Fixes] - In rare cases, the game crashed on the specialisation experience screen.

  • [Crash Fixes] - In very rare instances, you could corrupt your own mod by switching game versions. When this happened, clicking the "Copy Team" button crashed the game. The game now repairs team errors when you click "Copy" and then "Paste". If your game crashes when navigating to a team in a modification, simply click "Copy" / "Paste" for that team to resolve it.
