Team running out of money in the bank?

[ynohtna]

What happens if the GM can't generate enough revenue to pay his team and eventually runs out of money? Does it's screw up the sim or does he simply go into negative money. Do the players stop playing cause they have no cheques?

It go in negative and it's up to the commish to deal with the issues.

Sur el meme sujet,

sa serait le fun de pas avoir les mesages avec chaque output et a chaque fois que le sim fait une erreur ou qu'on simule et qu'il y a un erreur de roster...

Avec ma simulation automatique, a chaque fois qu'il essayait downloadait un fichier de ligne, sa poppait des messages d'erreur et des fonds sous 0. J'en avais une dizaine, on est en debut de saison 4 et il y a eu des gros changements.

Sa a pris 20 minutes cliquer les 20 boites d'erreur ou de ''Team X current funds is under 0''.

P-e une option pour nous avertir des erreurs non critique comme le plafond ou les finances?

20 pop up boxes, wonderful... yea non critical errors would be nice to just log them in the transaction log and that's it.

A team current fund under 0 is something critical for me.

[ynohtna]

yea maybe when team funds drop below 2million or other value you specify to have a warning... but afterwards, the guy may take some time to be able to turn things around. We don't need a reminder each time we run the sim. As commish, we have to monitor the situation and make sure things turn around. We only need to be aware once I guess.

[SimonT]

Sorry but I don't have a "warn once function".

[ynohtna]

yea, I know you don't.... today Maybe in the future?

[SimonT]

I create "feature" when it's good for everyone, not 1-2 leagues.

I should've been a beta tester At least the total pro/farm salary cap number was in the V1 client!

How they think a GM, in a salary capped league, can manage his roster effectively with today's client is unknown. Today:

• He has to check the website for the most recent salary information
• He has to write it down or something, and then have a calculator ready or something
• he has to click into the player he think about moving to see the salary
• go back out of the player view to move the player if he wants.
• make his calculations while tracking each player moved from pro to farm and vice versa.

Anyways, I'm not saying you have to put something for salary information. I'm talking generally now and the above was just an example since it's the topic here.

I'm just saying that in general you want the game to be easy not cumbersome and it's the GMs that are the most important! No GM, no league... Ease of use is what draws more people to use the simulator. Not everyone is hardcore sim fan, but a lot of people would be more willing to try it if the workload is less.

Just my 2cents.
