re: player contracts

[nikolgiorgos]

The max you can have is 3 years in any case.
if you buy a new player (so you have 1 +2 more seasons), you can't renew for this season.
Only the next one, to make it again 1+2.

* but really there is no reason for that.
It's not a good managerial action

No there's no different option, only 1 contact length can be signed. In the case of Jeeves point 3, the expired contract is signed in season 1, so the contract will expire in (current season) +2 years. Just as when it says "contract will expire next season" it means (current season) +1 year.

Renewing during the last season (Will expire at end of season) or the grace period after expiration (Player is unsigned, not currently playable, X days to resign) will have the same result. Difference being the bonus and wage amounts.

You can keep a contract length as 3 if, for some reason, you choose to renew every season.

Ok guys. I really appreciate your input. Everybody is saying the same thing. When you renew an expired contract you only get 2 seasons (this and next) and I have no issues with this. My issue is... (Based on the screenshot in my earlier posting) Why is it that it says the duration is 3 years when you click on renew? Isn't that highly misleading and something that needs to be corrected? Because as we all agree you only get 2 seasons when you renew....

Well, I personally am getting your point but also think that it's ok to be like this, @craigyc13.

I can understand that the~

Extend Contract

Duration: 3 years (While adding only 2 extra years)

~can look misleading but that is if you would expect the panel to tell you how many Years will be added. In which case I think there should be a completely different message, really. Something like: "Years added: 2 Years" or something among those lines. :9

The thing is that the panel, as it is right now, tells you the whole duration of the contract. (After you sign it)

I don't know, I've never been confused by the panel as it is, but I know that the support agents have had some tickets from players that have asked questions similar to yours. Then again, I've never personally cared too much about the duration of the contracts that much.

As I said, it's a personal thing. But I can get how it can look misleading due to the "Extend Contract" line.

P.S. I'll bring it to the table when we have a talk with the devs. We've done some interface lift-ups already in 2016, again due to such feedback.
