Hi,

I've been using the Custom Start Date for FM19

It's a great add-on, but it seems that the data update has an error. The 2019 xml file 'Reduced Player Contracts', has all staff contracts set to end 30/11/32766.

Can this be fixed somehow without having to change them myself one by one? And why is it like this in the first place?

you can mas edit all the staff contracts to end on a particular date use ctrl+a to select all in the displayed list and edit
that last date 32766 looks like a bug though

I have just checked it is a bug that needs to be reported to SI (be prepared for the standard response of when editing so much data it can cause issues blah blah)
the contract expiry date cant be edited on the failed data(the error as you state above)

@kingrobbo What should the file be reducing the contract lengths to? And does it only reduce contract lengths of players/staff with a year left at the beginning of a regular game

no idea you have to ask the person who created the file, it looks like an error I have seen before when mass editing

This was fixed in so far as the dates have been removed, but it means Staff no longer have reduced contracts, this is because the data we have extracted from the game is incomplete or inaccurate
