@xECK29x one thing with the beta ready final 2020-21 uhh... I wanna say it's the Pivot rosters?

Senators prospect Jonny Tychonick is on leave for 1 year, I believe this was probably due to his transfer from North Dakota to Omaha-Nebraska, however this year for whatever reason he didn't need to sit out, he played for Omaha this year.

Hello everyone! First time I'm promoting this on HF (mainly had been on TBL and Reddit prior to this), but letting everyone know (with great help and thanks to @xECK29x, Global United Hockey is now officially on Steam! Using PremierPivot as a base, and taking the database into an extremely fictional direction, I've created my own little hockey world!

If you have any interest, please check it out, here.

Main features of Global United Hockey:
A 96 team International Professional League:

An expanded NHL to 50 teams, many teams reinstated, as well as expanding to the great south (Mexico!) and a 98 game season.

For full description of the game please check out TBL: UPDATED 2021-05-15 Global United Hockey & North American Expansion 50 - EHM The Blue Line, but the database is vast featuring players from over 180 countries. And a vast scouting option to create your teams!

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out or ask!

That is insane. :thumbu: But where are teams from Czech and Slovakia?

Yea I think in a normal year he would have had a transfer year, I simply just forgot to remove the extra_config entry.

Ok, but this is Blobal hockey league. And without Czech and Slovak team... Hm i dont know... :naughty: But still, good job.
Czech Republic has a team in Prague and Slovak has a Bratislava team, I think I may have copy/pasted the same image twice, but they are in the DB, updated original post, but here full group of 96 teams:

Try re-downloading the DB by un-subscribing/re-subscribing.

But based on your save file getting corrupted and now that DB file (assuming it worked in the past), I'm going to assume you may have larger issues with that hard drive.

I doubt that's the problem since it's fairly new. But I’ll try re-subscribing.

Very nice. I know, im an ass... but, Bratislava Tatra Cham (cant see the full name) doesn't truly fit the region. And also you stole a Logo of HK Poprad, what is a team in Tatra Mountain region.

What about Bratislava Riverman, Bratislava Carpathians, Bratislava Blue Divas...

I'm open to changes for the next version, I'm not from that part of the world, and did most of the research via wiki/google. (ie. what is Slovakia known for), and those came up. I then just googled logos and that seemed like the one that seemed the best fit, so I modified the color. As someone in North America, those logos are not as known to me, so definitely willing to make changes.

Any other suggestions for names? I'm definitely open for learning and being more accurate, it was a pretty interesting rabbit hole researching all these places.

How long will this stay in beta? Not sure if anything has been announced. Looking to jump into a new save.

Has anyone managed to figure out how the new continental licenses work in the beta?

Been messing around with it but no luck, it always crashes before it updates to 2nd season and the initial selection of teams includes hockeyettan and allsvenskan teams for some reason even though I've assigned all initial 32 teams in the db

Ok i've just made some good progress, all the correct teams are now being selected and there is no crash on 20th June, end of season update occurs and the draw for the next seasons CHL takes place. Only problem now is that although the teams are taken from mostly the correct leagues, the number of teams from each country has changed.so that all countries have 3 teams competing and one has 2

So will look into this next

Yes I have it all sorted out:

upload_2021-5-19_11-4-22.png


Rules that were added in 1.5:

- Added extra rule to define the number of continental A licenses given out in transfer rules (value 174)
- Added extra rule to define the number of continental B licenses given out in transfer rules (value 175)
- Added extra rule to define the number of continental C licenses given out in transfer rules (value 176)
- Added extra rule to define league as a candidate league for continental A licenses in transfer rules (value 177)
- Added extra rule to define league as a candidate league for continental B licenses in transfer rules (value 178)
- Added extra rule to define league as a candidate league for continental C licenses in transfer rules (value 179)
- Added extra rule to define team to receive automatic continental A license every year in transfer rules (value 180) - note that you need to list all A-license clubs with this rule or alternatively not list any at all in which case the teams are picked from the defined A-license leagues

My counts and UIDs (UIDs will differ for each DB!):

A:
5 NL 11014
5 SHL 11003
4 Finland 11001
4 DEL 11010

B:
3 ICEHL 11015
3 Czech Tipsport 11011
2 Danish Metal 11030

C:
1 EIHL 11065
1 Poland 11264
1 France 11027
1 Belarus 11118
1 Norway 11031
1 Slovakia 11019

Note: You still have to pre-assign the licenses at the start of the game

Email convo with Riz while I was troubleshooting and fixing the CHL (sorry if this comes out discombobulated I'm piecing together an email chain):

Me: "Can you tell me the amount of A, B, and C licenses the game expects at a minimum (assigned to teams in the database)?"

Riz: "There are no minimum amounts for any license counts. It all depends on the team count of the related continental comp. If there are not enough A/B licenses given, the game will just give enough C licenses to fill out the comp with enough teams I think."

Me: "Ok great so once I set the leagues via transfer rules and pre-set the licenses to clubs the game will take over. So as an example for A licenses I use 174 to say 3 licenses then add three individual 177 rules applied to each league UID?"

Riz: "Yes. You first set the number of A licenses to give out using rule 174 (for example three), then use the rule 177 to identify the leagues with UIDs that will be used to give these licenses to. Note that if you set for example 6 licenses and add only three leagues using rule 177, the game will give 2 licenses to each league. If the numbers don’t add up, there will be some randomness involved as some leagues cannot get the same quota of licenses."

Me: "Follow on question, what about multiple licenses per unique league? League x always has 3 clubs, y 2 and z 1 etc."

Riz: "This can only be done by splitting these leagues to the different license categories. So leagues that get 3 clubs in each year will be A license, leagues that get 2 clubs are B and leagues that get 1 each year will be C. Inside the license categories, such a split cannot be done via the rules. As noted in my previous email, it is possible to set the number of A licenses to 5 and only define 3 leagues to given them to, but this means two of the leagues get 2 clubs in and one league only gets one. But this is randomly determined in these cases."

Me: "One final question, this should only apply to the CHL, the Continental Cup should be unaffected and should not need these transfer rules, correct?

Riz: "Continental Cup can make use of similar license extra rules in its own transfer rules if you want to add them in. But it should run with the defaults as well without any added rules."

Awesome, thanks for your reply. I can kinda see what i was missing, do you have a later version of the editor? In my version 1.0.2 the candidate league only allows for a true/false value even though it says UID, thought that might have been the issue.
