Hi! I came here to ask if there is a way to change subs rule in your future start database, i'm asking because i can change it playing with the normal database or if i don't choose your league (for example Portugal, when i choose that it keeps the 3 subs with 7 bench players, but if i don't choose that and make my alterations it shows 5 subs from 9 but the problem with that is if i start with the future date it don't show the results of the real life but it simulates a season, which means for example Benfica finished third in real life, here finished first) i've looked at your file, went to advanced rules, but in the league i can't see the option to change the subs rule…

Even I have the same question. If I choose the future start database then the files conflicts with other editor data files which are for changing substitution rule. I think you should integrate the latest substitution rules in the future start database itself because it is a must needed thing while starting a new save for the 2022/23 season. Please do consider helping us in changing the substitution rules.

FM23 is out so i don't believe that anyone will do anything about this.

I found a solution to this!
There is a option to merge editor data files in the pre game editor. It will help to merge the data update files (Future start database) with our own custom editor files with edited substitution rules.
I have made my own custom editor files with edited substitution rules for almost all current nations, COPA and UEFA which I will attach in the end unless you want to create your own with other changes you want to merge.
Step 1: Go the the pre game editor and load one of the Future start database editor file.
For example you have loaded: sortitoutsi.net FM22 Future Start Date - Future Start Date - England.fmf
Step 2: Once the file is loaded convert to Advance Rules under the Rules tab.
Step 3: Now go the file tab click on Merge Editor Data (Database Changes Only) and select the custom edited file you have made for that nation or just use mine “England 5 from 10” or “England 5 from 12” as per your need. Remember the nations in both the files need to match otherwise it won't work.
Step 4: Now the editor data files have merged you need to test them. Click on Test Rules under the Rules Tab and click All. Wait for it to verify and then save the file.
Step 5: Repeat Step 1 to Step 4 for all the nations you want the substitution rules changes to apply.
Note: My files only have substitution rules changes.
I have edited rules for almost all current nations (even those which are not in the Future Start Date database changes) so you can use them in your new save to have all competitions to have a universal substitution rule or you can just uncheck them while starting the new save.
“Spain 5 from 12 + max sqd 30” is named like that because I have edited the squad registration rules for this file. Doesn't create any issues.
Hope this works for the people looking for this!
