Forever World Cup Simulator changes
English Leagues
The top division now features all 20 fictional English clubs. While names and logos are fictional, each team is assigned real Elo ratings sourced from ClubElo. Ratings will be updated regularly for the upcoming season.
These are the same ratings used in many of the low effort YouTube Shorts match predictions.
Fixed an issue where teams were duplicated across divisions.
Editor - > Stages -> Qualifications
Replaced the "Custom group indices" option with Group Placements. This system requires both a Slot Index and a Group Index (zero-based). The Slot Index references teams within the sorted list of qualified teams defined by each rule.
The system now supports up to 7 rule types, including two new rules:
Hosts qualified from stage (e.g., EURO 2028 reserved finals slots)
Exclude last season top teams / winners (for competitions that omit defending champions or top finishers)
Match -> Momentum Chart
Added a pressure index that tracks teams' momentum throughout the game. The chart dynamically calculates team momentum by weighting key events—like goals, missed chances, and red cards—providing a clear look at who controlled the match. You can enable the chart from the match menu.
Rivalry
Added a new rivalry between Austria and Algeria, dating back to the Disgrace of Gijón.
Bug Fixes
The menu button should now appear again for all past matches in Stats -> Matches.
