addedWe’re moving the goal postsHello! We have a new version of SAF to test on the beta branch ! We’d like to get more feedback on this version before we move it over to the default branch, so please do let us know your thoughts! Here's what's new:
addedWe’re moving the goal postsReviewed ball control! With bigger pitches comes bigger kicks! The way you kick the ball is a bit more mature and finessed, with more control over passes, strikes and crosses. We have also added a power bar to give you a visual feedback on your strengths. It may get a bit of time to get used to, but we think it gives more control to the player.
addedWe’re moving the goal postsAdded a mini map! Now with a bigger pitch you may want to know where exactly all your players are, so now by pushing the TAB key you can toggle on/off the mini map (We will be adding this into the settings menu at some point!)
changedWe’re moving the goal postsTactic improvements Teammates should help you out a bit more when you have the ball. This is an ongoing improvement.
fixedWe’re moving the goal postsBug fixes UI and gameplay fixes, many many more to be fixed
changedWe’re moving the goal posts*PLEASE NOTE:** This version is only available on the beta saf_beta_work_in_progress branch (we’ll leave details at the end of this announcement). With the reviewed pitch sizes, we now need to redesign our stadium, so unfortunately this version of the stadium is a bit out of proportion, but we will fix this when we update on the main branch. Phew, what a lot of text. Again, please please PLEASE let us know what you think of these changes, we know it’s quite a big change gameplay wise but we are having much more fun with this layout than the previous versions, and hope you guys enjoy it too. Thanks for reading!! Here's how to activate the beta branch if you don't know yet:

We’re moving the goal posts
Hello! We have a new version of SAF to test on the beta branch! We’d like to get more feedback on this version before we move it over to the default branch, so please do let us know your thoughts! Here's what's new:
Bigger pitch!
We’ve completely resized the football pitch! It’s much bigger now meaning you have more space to link passes and build actions. This also helps freekick states be more playable.
Reviewed ball control!
With bigger pitches comes bigger kicks! The way you kick the ball is a bit more mature and finessed, with more control over passes, strikes and crosses. We have also added a power bar to give you a visual feedback on your strengths. It may get a bit of time to get used to, but we think it gives more control to the player.
Added a mini map!
Now with a bigger pitch you may want to know where exactly all your players are, so now by pushing the TAB key you can toggle on/off the mini map (We will be adding this into the settings menu at some point!)
Tactic improvements
Teammates should help you out a bit more when you have the ball. This is an ongoing improvement.
Camera Tweaks
Camera should be a bit more helpful in crossing scenarios
