Resign Player in last contract year

[Blackhawk]

I try to explain as good as my english can do...

My leaque works with a Player-Agent who negotiate new contracts for all players with the GM. So GM can resign their pending RFA and pending UFA before the hit the market.

Now it would be useful for me, to do that via simulator as well. It would need, that the players and goalies with contract lenght 1 are also listed under "League", "Free Agents", "Manual Free Agents". The Rest should work like it works now for the UFA with no contract.

As a Commish a should be able to set
- contract length
- salary (if possible, different salaries for different years)
- no-trade-clause
- play pro and/or farm
- signing-bonus

Benefit of that:
- it creates automatically an transaction log in the league and players history
- signing-bonus ist automatically withdrawn from account a the wright time
- workload for extensions and new contract could be over the whole year not everything in the off-season

i know - there are possibilities to do all that manually... including the transaction-log-entry... but i think with my proposed optin it would be easier...

thanks for attention

Interesting idea ...

I see 2 problems for me in creating this suggestion

1) Signing Bonus Assign on later date.
2) No Trade Clause and Play Pro/Farm option in the future.
3) The calculation of the salary average at the end of the season for the new contract.

My problem is applying a decision in the future and not now. The STHS is not architect for this.

How do you suggest to work around this?

if not possible automatically, then...

1) Signing Bonus only in 1st year in our league, so no SB on later date needed...
2) perhaps per auto-command in the off season... *
3) perhaps per auto-command in the off season... *

* please notice, that i'm not very technical, but perhaps you can set a flag for this issues and make a autocommand... "if flag NT = true, set NT = yes, after set flag NT = false"... "if flag calculate av. salary = true, calculate av. salary, after set flag calculat av salary = false"...

Every time I let users upload file (CSV normally) in the STHS, I get a bunch of support request because of that. That why I create Rating Pack in Version 2 versus Rating CSV in Version 1. But I have an idea on how to implement this.

You'll be happy in 2.2.6, I did a lot of Free Agents and I add a new option call “Next Year Free Agents” that will show you players who are in their contract last year and will allow you to resign them before their contract expire. Their new contract and option (Signing Bonus/Can Play Pro/Farm/No Trade, 1 Way Contract) will be applies once the off-season start.

Great feature!

Is there a possibility to edit the new contract before the next offseason?
Because of missing an option or insert a wrong salary or contract lenght.

Thanks.

It's not possible to change them after but I'll put the idea in my to do list.

More complex that I taught but done for 2.2.7.
