So many amazing, career explorer makes balancing the game soooo much easier and looking through the stats is just good fun.  Thanks a ton for this amazing tool!

As always a great update TiemenD
That said, I would like to suggest a feature, which I suggested many pages ago: The ability to assign national champions for all countries manually.
Not an earth-shattering feature, but it would be nice to see more champions in the game.

Good idea Waghon, and even better a random champion button. Press it and the countries that don't have national championships are assigned random champions.

I can confirm that the assigning of national champions will be included in the next version. (both random and manually for all countries that do not have a 3D race). it will be released this week. |

can you tweak the new sponsor page to add a renewal of sponsor option with a chosen amount?
Would be cool to be able to adjust it so that I can keep my jersey but change the amount offered to me by my current sponsor to one I've been offered by another sponsor whose jersey I don't like the look of.
It's not something that effects me yet as my sponsor contract won't run out until next season but I don't recall seeing it as an option currently when I flicked through the list when I first took a look through all the options on an old save.

And whilst I'm thinking about it is there anything we can do Dev Team wise?
I don't know how it is setup well enough in the DB's but can we make them target more than 1 nation and have say 5 riders from 3 nations or anything.
Would be cool to get say Movistar Columbia to go for only South American region or for BMC dev team to be Half Swiss Half American or my own Dev team to mirror my main squad in terms of Nationalities which would be German, English, American as the 3 main ones (not necessarily in any order for my squad)

Theoretically, it's something that can be done in dyn_sponsor_regions, but I'm really unsure on that one, since in dyn_u23_link you can only decide on national, international or regional focus under value_i_zone. Those 2 seem to go in conflict but should do more research.

Version 15.2
New screen: Transfer Helper
A new overview screen that helps you doing your transfers and manage your budget. it shows you an overview of the current state, the cyclists that have signed a new contract, cyclists that you offered a new contract, cyclist that are about to leave, or already signed another team, and a new summary of how your team salary expenses and averages will look like if all offers would get accepted. With this screen you can easily manage how much transfer budget you'll have left (if you want to keep it the same) and how much cyclist you still need to sign/let go and what the effect of your transfers is on the average rating/age of your team.
New modifier: Assign national champion
A easy-to-use overview screen of all countries that have cyclists but no national champion. You can assign them manually or use the "random" button. The random button is not entirely random, but uses the average ratings of the cyclists. the better they are, the higher chance they get selected as national champion
Loading of PCM11 & PCM12 savegames now supported
Officialy I don't want to put to much energy in supporting PCM11 & PCM12 savegames, but saves from those 2 PCM games can now also be loaded (At least the 2 test saves I got from community members) Not all features will work, but alot of them do work.

Version 16
Snapshots to retain retired cyclists & removed results
A new feature has been added that each time you load a savegame (with pcm career explorer) a snapshot is taken. This way results of previous season, record holders, ... stay intact and don't contain gaps when a cyclist retires. Retired cyclists that are removed from the game will still be visible in the PCMCE tool and their entiry palmares and history will be visible and apart from their stats their entire profile as well. The full stage result of the entire year will also be visible (if you load the game at least every two months with the tool). So in december you will still see every single stage result of the Giro and the "Summary" screen with the stage-by-stage evolution.
Note: if you activate this feature, the savegame will be updated to assign it a "unique id"so the tool recognizes the savegame each time you load it. It's recomended to create a backup first.
Added new columns to transfer view
In the transfer screen, the view of free riders has been updated with Average, Age and Country columns to help you better select what cyclists are interesting for you to attract. |

A slightly annoying thing I noticed is that when editing Local's difficulties and you click on save, the CE just closes, even when you previously opened a savegame and want to do 2 things at the same time. Would be nice if it didn't and let the user do that.
Besides, it would be nice if you could see the new average calculated before it got saved as it gets updated, so you can tweak it better. F.e. if I want to tweak extreme's difficulty and by default it's 78 and I want to make it 77, I either calculate that using a calculator or I will just know it after it gets saved, so to tweak it I'd need to open and close the tool everytime.
So yeah, would be nice to have these sorted. Thanks in advance and thanks for this amazing tool.

Wow.
I'm absolutely in awe. Amazing work you're done here.
I got around to using it and it's really impressive. Thanks for the effort.
Keep up the great work! |

Thanks for the feedback guys and for the new ideas.
It can be a few weeks until I find the time for a next version but I keep all suggestions in mind for future versions :-) |
