Jaysin Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 I'm running tests on my mod and it's so annoying seeing fictional workers generated. Please give us back the option to turn this off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larrikn Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 I also agree with this <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rickson Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 There is actually a workaround to stop new workers from entering the game world: Check that picture requirement is "On" and delete your entries in free pictures. No workers will be generated because there are no pictures for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NexxusDrako Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 <p>Auto-Fix Imbalances and Training Facilities are the only ways worker generation happens, AIUI. Wipe them and delete them and fictionals should stop... unfortunately that wipes out entire parts of the game... so... yeah...</p><p> </p><p> Please bring back the choice of generating new workers?

Kijar Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 Just use Sabins free pictures makes new workers look realistic I'm with a lot of people who don't want new workers there at all.. pictures far from the issue in that case Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackman Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 There is actually a workaround to stop new workers from entering the game world: Check that picture requirement is "On" and delete your entries in free pictures. No workers will be generated because there are no pictures for them. I haven't thought about that, so I guess this works until the problem gets fixed. But this results in other problems like the impossibility to spawn announcers when a company randomly debuts in, say, Australia, where there's no announcers. I doubt announcers without work will move to Australia, though a system like that was in place in WMMA5. You'd also have to export the freeworkers to a separate db and import them back when you want them to start appearing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe even have some that are set to only be used for announcers that can appear at any time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teh_Showtime Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 In addition to all of the points made here can we at least be able to control the amount of random gens? The only way to really do that is to set the dojos to have very low output, which could hurt years down the line. In the default data there are a good amount of talent under 25, but many of them will get displaced by generated workers simply due to the excess, and half of them going directly to a promotion (because dojos are the only way they get produced). In previous games I played the default data with “Very low” new worker generation before turning it to medium later on. Right now it’s just constant at one level the entire time.

Well it's a little more work because there are no advanced filters in free pictures (you can only filter for missing picture) but you can delete all entry's except for the entry's for announcers/color commentators. Or delete all entries and add announcer/color free picks back in after. Free pictures can be restricted by role. This way announcer's could still be generated.

redgiant Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 Yes, I want the option "new worker frequency" back. If I need more new workers, I would use the "Quick Fill" feature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
