Performance Improvements
I tested all the major league types over 20 seasons and didn't run into any issues. So it makes me think the issues people are running into as early as 5-8 years may be disc size and generally computer related.
So what I did was have the game automatically:
- Delete box scores from previous seasons, and
- Delete any retired players who didn't win awards or weren't on the user's team.
This may not fix all issues people run into. However, it will make it a lot easier to go to Tools/Export and send me the file so I can debug the league.
If you run into any issues with a league it may be a simple fix. So please do let me know and ideally send me the league file at [email protected], post it on the /r/zengmlol subreddit, or pm me (/u/mycoder) on reddit.
Options Page
For those who don't want to have players deleted or have box scores deleted I have created the Options Page where you can turn these features off.
Coach Mode Draft Improvements
When you create a Coach Mode league (versus GM Mode) you get to draft the champions for each game. Currently the game will then assign each of those champions to your players at the start of the game.
Previously the method that assigned champions would sometimes handle champions that could play more than one role poorly. So the TOP might be the best at a champion but that champion was the only one that could JGL. So the real TOP champion might end up going to the JGL.
Now the game will evaluate every possible champion/player combination and pick the best ones as a group. So the game should much better handle champions that can play multiple roles and allow flex picking much more successfully.
Next Update
The next update will be on November 3rd.
Again, if you run into any issues/bugs please do let me know. The file sizes should be potentially much smaller than before. You can send those files to me at [email protected], post them on the /r/zengmlol subreddit, or pm me (/u/mycoder) on reddit.
Thanks!
