Illegal Number of players on roster...over and over

koohead · 01-28-2010, 03:09 PM

For some reason, I've got 3 teams that the players seem to keep disappearing from the active roster (but they are really there). Here's what happens...
I get an error saying Team A has an illegal number of players on the active roster (0). I go, and sure, the roster is blank. I go down to actions, select the "Ask AI to setup complete Team, lineups, etc" option, and all the players appear back (with stats and everything). I sim a day, and the next day I get the same message. Every team in my universe is set to AI control. This is happening to 3 teams over and over. What's going on?
***Let me add to this. Every now and then, I'll be able to sim multiple days without getting this error...then wham it's back...always the same 3 teams. fix them...maybe I can sim more than a day but more times than not I get to finish the day and the rosters get all messed up...then I fix again. No ghost players, and as I said AI controls everything. Roster limits are 35.

Check the team options screen of the teams, I bet they have "Prevent AI moves" checked. That would cause this...

Thanks Markus. That is probably true. The way I finally worked around this was to set all teams to human control, then set back to AI, then allow AI changes for all AI controlled teams, then ran computer manager on all teams. seemed to have fixed it.
