I want to thank everyone who has provided support, offers of assistance and encouragement. This project means a lot to me and I am so happy to continue offering it to the EHM community!

Special thanks and credits to:
Archibaulduk, IAmActuallyAnOtter, Vik3tbotselektor, penguinrevolt, Matee, filip85, Seanie, ChaiTiefling, Aahlstroem, Patrick, Matt#5, everyone who continues to provide support and encouragement to keep this going, especially the NTHL crew!

All playable and most background leagues have been updated mostly as of June 30th with this initial release, with more changes still to come.

This is still very much an NHL focused database project, so expect some unrealistic ratings and such in Europe, we still do not have enough researchers to keep those leagues accurate. If you want to offer some of your time to help please DM me!

Known Issues:

- Due to an AI bug I've decided to remove buyout cap hit penalties from the NHL. This will help maintain AI team health long term so they don't continue to sign/buyout players and rack up penalties. More info on this bug here: https://community.sigames.com/forums/topic/562580-player-continuously-signed-and-dropped-immediately/
-- This will also help AI GMs get out/around some really bad cap conditions that it's not capable of handling.

- Not all leagues have been tested, please follow the recommended settings and do not select more then 20 total leagues on view only OR enhanced!
- Please report any issues/crashes, please provide saves before crashes.

** HOW TO PLAY WITHOUT GENERATED FUTURE PROSPECTS **

Go to the workshop item folder \Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\301120\1428241604 and copy the contents to a new folder in \Steam\steamapps\common\Eastside Hockey Manager\data\database\[FOLDER NAME]. Whatever you name that folder is how the copied DB will show in the game list. Delete the database.db and rename 'database - no prospects added.db' to 'database.db'.

** FOR FANTASY DRAFT PLAYERS **

- Please delete the sections 'NHL Future Transfers' and 'Cap Penalties' in the extra_config!

** RECOMMENDED SETTINGS **

- Use the United States (July 2nd) start date if GMing in the NHL, if you are GMing in either the KHL or VHL you MUST use the July 2nd start date or the game will crash!
- Recommended to use a FULL DB to retain the most detail. If you still find day-to-day sim speed a little too long for your liking you can lower the DB size even further but keep in mind this will reduce the amount of non-playable clubs/leagues loaded into the simulation.

--- Only select leagues you intend to be a GM in, have an affiliate in, or will heavy scout or develop players, do not select all leagues as this will lead to crashes! THE MAXIMUM COUNT OF SELECTED LEAGUES IS 20!

Also:

- Disable starting wage changes so it forces values set in the database
- Disable Extra Players and Staff
- Retain All Teams

** HOW DO I CHANGE THE SALARY CAP? **

-- DO NOT ASK ME WHAT TO DO IF THIS DOES NOT WORK, EDITING SAVE GAMES OR THE DATABASE INVOLVES THE RISK OF DATA CORRUPTION --

Not sure if this is a bug but three times in a row I've been fired on November 24 in the second season at a club. The last one I was in second place, payroll under control, job wasn't insecure or anything. Previous two were similar situations. Using the latest update...

Just thought I would share not sure if it has anything to do with the DB

@JokeyMokey - thanks for this report, I'll take a look and have it fixed for the next release!

thanks for the great work again pal i know it says about the nhl salary cap but is it the same way to do it for the other leagues? as the UK leagues salary is really low

How can i increase "Average Goals per Game"? Is there any parameter in editor?
JokeyMokey 10 Aug @ 7:01am 
In my current save in the Alps Hockey League i noticed a bug right after the regular season. The Pre-Playoffs are drawn before the Master Round and Qualification Round even start, which shouldn’t happen.

Also, the 6th placed team after the regular season is not assigned to either group, so their season ends immediately.

Right structure would be:

Top 5 teams go to the Master Round (+already qualified for playoffs)

Remaining teams (6-13) go to the Qualification Round

After the Qualification Round:
Bottom 2 are eliminated
The rest play Best-of-3 Preliminary Rounds for the last 3 playoff spots

Extra info:
Celje withdrew from the real AHL so there are just 13 teams remaining.
Let me know if you need any more details!

@Airwaves28 - Maybe, you aren't the first to ask and with the updated tooling I can keep them fairly up to date. The problem with the NIHL-1/2 levels however is I don't think they will really be fun to play long term due to the lower reputation of the leagues mainly due to the financials. It's also more of a burden to me to keep updated.

@Рудольф Шнапс - Aware, will be updated in the next update in early September.

Kunlun Red Stars renamed to Shanghai Dragons
