changedA massive job for me to do this first time, a simple process in future. This updates all club/ national teams to their current squads as players move around etc. Ideally I want to be able to update this twice a year, so required a build process in place to make this an easier task - I hope to update the game at the end of each transfer window. At these times, players will have changed clubs and I want the game to reflect this changes. I have built a process to allow me to fetch all the updated squads for every team, then generate database migrations that I can ship out with each update. This way, it will update the game without having to delete saved tournaments, edited player names etc.

changedThis is to enhance performance and speed up the lag experienced between fixtures screen and displaying results. Will build upon this in future updates to enhance performance further.

changedThe game stalls when database migrations are running, this just ensures that the game is still responsive and I can do things like showing a progress bar whilst updates are running.

Update club and national squad players

A massive job for me to do this first time, a simple process in future. This updates all club/ national teams to their current squads as players move around etc. Ideally I want to be able to update this twice a year, so required a build process in place to make this an easier task - I hope to update the game at the end of each transfer window.

Process match fixtures on a separate thread

This is to enhance performance and speed up the lag experienced between fixtures screen and displaying results. Will build upon this in future updates to enhance performance further.

Process migrations on a separate thread

The game stalls when database migrations are running, this just ensures that the game is still responsive and I can do things like showing a progress bar whilst updates are running.

Fix bug where transfer list doesn't fill up after a few seasons

For some reason, the transfer market wasn't filling up after a couple of seasons - especially with defenders and goalies! I've re-written this section to ensure this works correctly now.

Add scrolling to text that spills out of boxes

Some team names and player names are just too long for my small boxes. I've added text scrolling so that they fit more neatly.

Add scrolling to news screen when there are many news items

Now the news screen will automatically scroll vertically when there are many news items to show -player transfers, players returning from injury/suspension etc

Update season transfer menu buttons/ team selection

Updated to newer style. Still have the editor menus to do next.

..and lots of additional refactoring and bug fixes, too many to mention them all, as always! :)
