Bug Check - Max Staff Hiring Price

Coffee Warlord · 11-15-2003, 12:52 PM

I noticed this last night, like to see if anyone else can confirm it.

In the same hiring phase, I went to try and offer a contract to a new staff member (not scout). I got the 'the max for new staff is such and such' message. Went back to try and hire someone else, and the maximum amount I was allowed to spend had gone down even further. This happened 3 times in a row when I was trying to hire staff, at which point there was noone worthwhile in my allowed price range. (I had an OC already on staff, was trying to replace him.)

Am I delusional? Was I so tired last night I was seeing things? Stay tuned and find out!

Edit: One other thing, that's just one of my pet peeves. Jim, can you add an error check to not allow the name generator to prevent FirstName = LastName? I refuse to allow myself to draft people named Howard Howard.

Rather than start a whole new thread, I'll just piggy-back on this one.

Watch out on making coaching staff offers when you want to hire a coordinator. The default menu selection is to offer them the Head Coach position, regardless of their expertise or prior position.

No, no, no! We need them in there for comedic value (and yes, I did sign a Fred Frederick in my Frederick Tequilas dynasty! Just had to...).

The limit drops each stage (the message indicates that). I'm increasing the limits, as they weren't intended to interfere with reasonable offers.

I've changed the default menu selection to match the current job title, when applicable (otherwise, it's still for the head coach position).

If you don't like their names, just edit them
