#306987 E23 - England to Level 23
Timetxu
Thanks a lot mate!
I actually knew ticking that box was the way to solve this, but I had no idea where to find it as I couldn't find it in the game setup screen. Apparently, I had forgotten to open the "advanced options" tab so all additional options were hidden
#306867 A One Way Ticket to Asia ... and Beyond!

Just had a quick question: I saw there are only 9 countries in your South American qualifying group. Has Argentina taken over the organization from Qatar or have they turned into a dictatorship and got robbed of participating in the tournament?

#301052 Dutch pyramid - W.I.P.
Timetxu
First of all, great you're trying to tackle this problem! I am Dutch myself too, so I'd love to have the entire pyramid playable. I tried having a go at this as well, but after I had created all existing amateur teams in Limburg (as I'm a Limburger myself), I completely lacked the motivation to do the other 11 provinces and ended up creating an extra nation in the game with a national Limburgish league, cup etc.
I do have some tips for you:
- If it comes to the colorrs of the shirt, I've always found the sites www.voetbalnederland.nl and www.hollandsevelden.nl very helpful. As a graphical touch to the site they have added a little home shirt and shorts next to all the team names, which gives you a pretty accurate idea of the home kits. For the away kits, I've always used the exact opposite colour pattern, or a white version of the shirt with their primary colour in there as the second colour. It would be a ridiculous amount of work to find accurate away shirts, so I suggest you to drop that idea.
- If it comes to the districts and the promotion/relegation: From the Topklasse downwards to the 3e Klasse, everything is pretty straightforward as most districts have one Topklasse, one Hoofdklasse, one 1e Klasse, 2 2e Klasses and 4 3e Klasses. Below, some districts have not enough teams or there are more or less leagues than the league above, which makes creating promotion/relegation rules a bit tricky. For example: the Zuid II Sunday district has 8 4e Klasses and 9 5e Klasses. You'd have to find a common denominator to make promotion and relegation work, but the first denominator is 72, which would mean that a ridiculous amount of teams have to relegate and promote at the end of every season. I suggest you just try and put 8 or 16 relegation and promotion spots between the two leagues and click Test Nation Rules and let FM do the thinking for you (or maybe add an extra playoff system, as exists in real life as well).
- I have seen this project tried before and to more or less make the district system work on a geographical basis, it would mean that you have to add all the preferred leagues in the teams information screen in case of promotion or relegation. For example, for my hometown amateur team, EVV (playing in third tier Topklasse Sunday), you would have to add Eredivisie, Jupiler League, Topklasse Sunday, Sunday Hoofdklasse B, Sunday 1e Klasse D, Sunday 2e Klasse G, Sunday 3e Klasse Zuid II C, Sunday 4e Klasse Zuid II C, Sunday 5e Klasse Zuid II C. If you add that, FM will automatically calculate the ideal leagues (geographically) for all the teams at the start of the new season as you have also had to put longitude and latitude for the stadium's location and FM will try and find the teams together which are the least distance apart. If you want to have a good geographical idea of which region encompasses every single league, I suggest you visit www.hollandsevelden.nl , as they included a map of the spread of the teams of every league when you click on the league's page (very helpful!). I've seen the problem been tackled succesfully this way in earlier attempts to create the Dutch league structure, so it'll eventually pay off.
If you have any other questions, I'd love to help and think this plan through. I'm always happy when people try and install the Dutch structure as my editor skills are good enough, but not THAT good.
