addedThanks again to the community for the feedback. This update adds two things - Volley/Snapshots and Player Orders.
changedVolleys/SnapshotsThese work just the same as headers. Using the heading button (now Heading / Volley button) select the player and then click where you want them to volley the ball to. Click Set Target to lock in the direction. Pass or shoot the ball to them at power and they will attempt to volley the ball in the direction you've set. If the ball's too high they will of course attempt to head it. If the player attempts a volley their skill level will decide whether they are successful or not. Warning an uncontrolled volley can end up going anywhere!
addedPlayer OrdersTo reduce the number of orders you have to give your players each turn you can now give a player specific orders which they will carry out every turn until you tell them otherwise or play stops. The orders are divided into two groups: Defending - orders for when you are defending (your team does not have the ball or the opposition are closest to the ball) Attacking – orders for when your team has the ball or are closest to it. For example you tell your player that when you are defending they should man mark the opposing player number 15. At the start of each turn (orders phase) when you are defending that player will be automatically given movement instructions to move near to player number 15. As you are in orders phase you can change the order/cancel the order or just give a fresh movement command if you wish. However if you are happy with your player order just end the turn and away they will go hounding player 15. The Player Orders Panel Press the new Orders button on the Formation Panel or press the V key to display the Player Orders Panel. Select whether you want to give orders for when the player is defending or attacking by pressing the Attack or Defence button. To set an order just select your player and the order. For some orders (such as man mark) you'll then have to select the shirt number of the player you want them to interact with (the shirt numbers are at the bottom of the panel). You can suspend or activate orders by clicking the player's Yes/No button in the Active column. Player orders will be suspended automatically if you override an existing player order or when play stops (e.g. for a goal kick). Note: you can't give Player Orders to goalies as they are already automatically controlled by the computer. Orders for When You Are Defending Here are the orders for when you are Defending... None – clears any orders for that player Man Mark – The player will follow them trying to stay between them and your goal. You'll have to select the shirt of the opposing team player that you want to mark. Man Mark Close -The player will follow them closely trying to stay between them and your goal. You'll have to select the shirt of the opposing team player that you want to mark. Keep in Line – Keep in line with the nominated player. You'll have to select the shirt of the team mate the player should keep in line with. Useful for defenders – keeping the defensive line. Halfway Line – Move to the halfway line. Useful

Volleys/Snapshots

These work just the same as headers. Using the heading button (now Heading / Volley button) select the player and then click where you want them to volley the ball to. Click Set Target to lock in the direction. Pass or shoot the ball to them at power and they will attempt to volley the ball in the direction you've set.

Warning an uncontrolled volley can end up going anywhere!

Player Orders

To reduce the number of orders you have to give your players each turn you can now give a player specific orders which they will carry out every turn until you tell them otherwise or play stops.

The orders are divided into two groups

Defending - orders for when you are defending (your team does not have the ball or the opposition are closest to the ball) Attacking – orders for when your team has the ball or are closest to it. For example you tell your player that when you are defending they should man mark the opposing player number 15. At the start of each turn (orders phase) when you are defending that player will be automatically given movement instructions to move near to player number 15. As you are in orders phase you can change the order/cancel the order or just give a fresh movement command if you wish. However if you are happy with your player order just end the turn and away they will go hounding player 15.

You can suspend or activate orders by clicking the player's Yes/No button in the Active column. Player orders will be suspended automatically if you override an existing player order or when play stops (e.g. for a goal kick).
