3.2.5 17 October 2020	Career stats management has been completely reimagined again. Instead of saving very limited scope of data, the STHS save 80% of the data of the league file into the CareerStat file. The data not saved in the CareerStat file is Players Stats VS, Transaction History, Team Transaction History and Records. The new data saved in the CareerStat file are Coaches, Prospects, Draft Pick, Schedule, League Options including Standing, Referees, more data for Teams, Players and Goalies. This allow to have even more data CareerStat SQLite database and make the dynamic website of version 3 of the STHS to be even more interesting. The most interesting part of in the standing and playoff tree for all your previous season. Because of this change, you need to rebuild your CareerStat file if you had one create before version 3.2.5. But instead of loading XML files which are missing data anyway and are complex to work with, the STHS literally use previous league STH file or STC file to get the data history to rebuild the STCareer file! Simply open the STHS, go in the Career Stat section, click on ‘Career Stat Transfers Stats from Select File’ for every STH or STC file that you have of your end of season and end of playoff, save the new STCareer file and output the career stat database. The STHS now used a third-party DLL ‘FluentFTP’ for its FTP functions. The file ‘FluentFTP.dll’ is bundle with the STHS must be in same folder than the STHS executable like the System.Data.SQLite.dll file. The STHS Client will no longer upload line via FTP.
