And I just made a little test: I copied my mod, modded the 60+ cans I created to fill the ranks at the start of the game and distributed them: 20 based in Russia, 20 in Central America (not Mexico, although why not just merge them as game areas is an idea Adam should consider), 16 Elsewhere. Then I fast-advanced three months.</p><p> </p><p>
Results: up until 1 April there have been two American indy shows, three Japanese, two European (searching shows 19 fighters based in Europe) and one British (13).</p><p>
None of my cans appeared in either of the European shows.</p><p> </p><p>
Conclusions: nationality is not the factor here, it's the base. And if a fighter is based in any of the above three areas, well, they're stuck: no indy events there, no appearances in confining areas.</p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p>
did you download the patch from march 20th before doing the test?</p>
