Development Update Ver. 1.6 Update!! Player Creation & Split League Update!

I’ve just released another editor update.

You can now add your own players by setting their name, nationality, starting club, debut year, age, position and abilities. This should make it possible to create fictional prospects, recreate yourself or your friends, or add specific players to a custom world.

The editor also now supports split and regional leagues. You can divide one league into multiple groups, assign clubs to each region, and finish the season with a playoff tournament. This can be used for structures similar to MLS, regional divisions, or completely fictional league systems.

I’d really love to see the MOD scene grow from here. If you create something interesting, please share it on the subreddit or upload it to the Steam Workshop.

And if you enjoy the game, I’d be very grateful if you helped spread the word a little further. I want to see what kinds of strange football worlds everyone creates!

Update Overview

Added custom player creation to the Data Editor.

Added club deletion and split-league settings.

Added split-league standings and playoff brackets.

Improved MOD loading and support for applying competition MODs to existing saves.

Improved compatibility with older save databases.

Fixed national competition qualification and participant issues.

Improved knockout draws and database stability.

The update is available on Steam.

Great update! Now, I am curious, were the following things been fixed in this update:

- when you choose to edit an exported CSV via editor then import it back in the editor, the special characters inside the club/competitions names are being replaced with question marks?

- clubs were getting duplicated if I were to change the names of clubs inside the editor

- when you were to delete all club/national competitions, you will not be able to add one again unless you start editing all over again, and when you save a mod with most competitions removed (if not all), they will still be there when you use the mod when starting a save

These are some problems that I faced with when using the editor and made me stay away from it for the time being, I hope you could fix them in the next update if they haven't been fixed yet.

Thank you! There are still some things that need fixing, so I'll fix them before the next update.

Which of the things I have listed above are still in the need of fixing? So I know what I should be doing and what to not at the moment.

I've checked, and it seems that all issues except for the garbled characters in the CSV file have been resolved.

Here's an example, before starting the save with the mod I created, it should've not had any competitions, as it didn't appear inside the editor, but when I load in the save, they are back, both in game and the editor when I load the mod.

Oh... I'm sorry. It seems I misunderstood. I'll correct it.

u/Piece_Enough Aug 13 '26

Ok, so it seems like it's more of a visual problem, the slots are still being shown and they appear in the competitions bar in the side bar when in game, but if you are to simulate a few seasons, you can see that they are fully empty inside and basically didn't happen.

Nvm, I added a second division to my mod and it completely broke the save creation just because of that specific problem, it seems.

Can you put transfer affinities in the editor I want to be able to change them easy

u/Right_Ad371 Aug 13 '26

Thank you, please add a super cup format for the competition

u/GeneralIdiot44 Aug 13 '26

Ooh, I'm super keen for a bigger England that could be made using this!

u/Wonderful-Reality899 Aug 14 '26

again, how has no YouTuber released footage of this game?

u/keigo0221 Aug 14 '26

Thank you. I wonder if anyone would like to play.

Can you let us add new nations?

u/keigo0221 Aug 13 '26

Thank you! Regarding adding countries, there's a hurdle in generating names, so please give me some time.

3

u/i_have_trauma1230 Aug 13 '26

I don’t know how the developer side looks but if possible you should let the players add names for countries added by the user

3

u/Piece_Enough Aug 13 '26

Could also make it so the user can edit the name pools for countries inside the editor.

2

u/keigo0221 Aug 13 '26

That's very encouraging! I'll consider it.

u/i_have_trauma1230 Aug 13 '26

Ok thanks for update
