Love the team editor, so many options!

Wondering one thing though... we can only add 18 players? What if the Test, ODI and T20 squads are vastly different and we need many more to cover all the required teams? How can we set a new squad for each format?

----------

Moreover, the regions mentioned in the commentary name, definately have their stadiums.

No, that's for likely created teams...

Yeah it just whizzes round saying it is downloading but I am not sure how long it should normally take......a few minutes? Longer? I cannot press escape or go anywhere and have to exit via task manager.....sorry!

Not sure if it is load issues (there is heavy load right now) or a bug.

You can press alt-F4 to exit rather than go through the task manager.

We are looking into the issue, I would suggest not downloading teams for now.

Cheers Ross. I will wait and see if others have been able to download a team....thanks again for all the hard work. I cannot wait to setup my own dutch domestic competition with this game. It is unbelievable what you guys have created here. have a great weekend and enjoy a bit of rest hopefully!

Of course that's an option. Then why do we need 4 separate kits for each team/country if only for one format? :P

Would be very easy to have one base squad for each country then fill in each format team and related uniform. You choose to tour a country as NZ say, would require 3 different teams to make up NZ?

There are 8 sets of players that can be chosen per team of 18 I think.

I believe that the number was set to 18 because that would be the size of a touring party (but I could be wrong).

Must be blind, can't see where to add another set :< Or do you mean from the same core 18 players?

-e- ah, you mean batting order I think. From the same 18 players. These days there isn't so much a touring party but a different squad arriving for each format. NZ are using 24 players overall just for the Test/ODI England tour, add it T20 specialists that would require a big squad to cover all those teams :P

There's a full PC kit in there and the logo.

You do need to switch the Big Ant logo (it's the default).

It will take people a while to get familiar with where things are and how to turn things off/on.

I saw the logo but not the kit. How do I access the PC one? I see that all the players are now showing as being in the Big Ant kit. I take it that means that don't currently have a team.
The England Ashes and Australian Ashes teams have both vanished for now. Hopefully they'll re-appear.

I come cap in hand...

I get past the Big Ant logo and then I have a screen with a fancy looking background and '[P] Sign In' in the bottom left corner. I've pressed P, and clicked on the button, but nothing happens. Is there something I've done?

Exactly same with mine. This problem didn't occur before the update :/

If I remember, there is some enforce check-box. That just gives the clothing with our logos. I did try PC one (only).

In teams, under Uniforms there is a "Z - Select uniform from list" , you should see a Planet Cricket uniform in the list.

We are having issues with team sharing - locally all should be fine. Hoping to have it fixed by the morning.

If they are in the Big Ant kit then it indeed means they are not assigned to a team.

Sounds like it might not be getting your local PC name from windows - I have forwarded this to QA - will get a response in the morning.
