Doom314 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 I'm trying to figure out how to change a Road Agent (for 21CW, fwiw). Changing the push doesn't do it, hiring as a Road Agent doesn't do it. What's the trick? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To push someone as a road agent you just need to change their push (and make sure you don't use autopush after that, or lock it in place.) To get someone to road agent a match you just need to select them in the booking screen -a randomly chosen road agent will initially be assigned to each match, but you can change to whoever you want.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrokenCycle Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 <p>Yeah... Not sure what you're talking about.</p><p> </p><p> The only thing I could think of is that you had no road agent, booked a show, then made someone a road agent. If you do that then the road agents don't automatically fill in.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tannerfiasco Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 Wait so his name is "Road Agent"?? I don't get it either. His push has to be set as road agent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrokenCycle Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 <p>Okay. I tried to re-create what I think you're talking about. </p><p> </p><p> Are you <em>RUNNING THE SHOW</em> while you're making a wrestler a road agent? Because you can't. You can't make a wrestler a road agent because there's an error that tell you you can't make an active wrestler into a passive worker in the PM part of the day, only before the show.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rd_dbacks01 Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 The way it sounds to me is that he wants to auto book but doesn't have anyone actually pushed as a road agent, but I don't know. I've never used the auto booker so I'm not sure how it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaysin Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 On your roster page click Filter. On the all the way right side under where it says "Skills and Overness" the first drop down box will say "I'm looking for" and go to "A Road Agent". It'll tell you if anyone on your roster can work as a road agent. If so, change their push to road agent. Then to prevent auto push from removing them as an agent, click Auto Push. A list of your workers will pop up. Find the guy you just made a road agent and click the check box next to his name and then click "Auto Push" and it'll make him exempt from auto push and stay a road agent. If you need to hire a road agent, go to the characters screen. Under scouting change "I'm scouting for" to "A Road Agent" and the box that says "to view" to "to hire". Offer someone with high psychology a contract and where it says "your role on the roster will be" change it to "be exclusively a road agent."

codey_v2 Posted June 25, 2016 Share Posted June 25, 2016 I'm having zero issues. I click on their push, scroll down to road agent, click save, and boom, they're set. Are you saving the change or just clicking close? Are you autopushing afterward without checking their name to make sure they don't change back to a wrestler/announcer/manager?

Kingster Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 <p>Don't push active wrestlers as the road agent. They will become unhappy over time because they are not being used as an active wrestler. When booking a match, you can still use him as the road agent, just don't push him as such.</p><p> </p><p> If you want to hire a road agent, filter by "Style: Never wrestles", "to hire" and then go with the worker with the highest psychology (high respect doesn't hurt, either, but is not as important as psychology). By doing this you'll find retired wrestlers who won't be unhappy about being pushed as a road agent.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
