Changed Carrick to 'non player' instead of 'retired' in the player section of this database but he then appeared in the U23.
Not sure how to resolve this.


@Rob Any advice?

I outlined what to do with both pre game and IGE above
Will be time consuming if you want to bring every retired ex player back. Ones with failed changes not too bad


I’ve never used the IGE so won’t try it.

Another example is Graham Stack who has a player/staff profile in game. He has just retired as a player and become an U18 coach at Watford

Was unsure if this should be first team goalkeeper coach or U23s?

I've just edited the file myself as outlined in my earlier post


But you can only do this with the ingame editor surely?

there are lots of failed changes in the DB here due to this issue

it happens when a player leaves a club and on an earlier draft of the update to the file he is set as retired(wrongly IMO and thus taking him out of the game)
later on that ex player takes a non playing job and the DB is updated again but these changes fail due to the retired issue

once again IMO when this happens just change him to a non player its simple and easy to do that way he is still in the DB and can be edited later to take up his new job etc etc

for those who are not aware its not the end of the World... you can get the retired person back via the changes tab under his details select the retired one and remove follow the prompts save and reload DB you may on some occasions have to do this twice due to a slight bug with the editor(remember to back the file up first)

it can be time consuming if you have to do loads but you can get the person back in game and his failed changes will now work correctly, in the last file there are 27 so not too bad the likes of Mertesacker/Carrick who should definitely be in the DB as they have very high profile positions in the game now

There is another workaround if you are in a save-

using the SI IGE you can edit a person in the DB say a regen to be the retired ex player hope this helps but as MG @metal_guitarist says in the OP the retired option is not being used correctly which is a shame as the huge work done here creating the file is fantastic and much appreciated but this needs addressing


I know @Rob was hopefully going to take a look at this...

Has this actually happened? I can’t find a source that says it has?

thats nor easy to do automatically

players have to be changed to staff

PA/CA has to be added
Attributes must be set, etc


But if these players already have a staff profile with statistics they can be changed to just a staff role already?

Someone appears to have misunderstood exactly what this means. Setting a person to "Retired Person" strips out all data about that person apart from a name and an ID. They are in the game by name, nothing more. Setting Michael Carrick and Per Mertesacker to this does not make them staff members, it gets rid of all of their data which is why they don't appear in-game in their correct roles.

This person type should only be set on people who have retired from football completely and have no active participation in football anyway. You should be using the person type "Non-Player" for players who retire and go into coaching/management.



I agree - this seems to happen a lot for some reason on here - I don’t think we should ‘retire’ players who have staff roles in game and have become purely a ‘staff’ member. Just change their particular role at the club to a staff role, otherwise if they are ‘retired’ they are missing from the game completely.

A few other examples include, Johnie Jackson, Grant Holt, Chris Cohen...

You can’t really have two assistant coaches - I’d suggest setting salgado as a first team coach - I don’t think he needs sacking from club job either as that was as an owner.

As a player yes, not from football entirely. He's working as a first team coach for Man Utd

I’m not sure who his predecessor was and whether they have left the club or got a new role at a forest?

He doesn’t have a staff profile in game currently- I have asked @SirTAVARES to add this in his extra file.

He is now manager of the Cambodian national side as well as still player.

Yeah, but I am waiting for the new one. Lots of changes were posted, and I need one without Buffon's retirement.


I’m sure @SirTAVARES will update us all when he can
