Transfers' team view showing incomplete riders list for WT teams (and wrong 2020 team indexes)

[Vlad]

Just had this at the end of my career's first season, Teams view in the Transfers tab is showing incomplete list of riders for all for next year (even though transfers are finished and there actually are more riders in contract with that team for next year than shown) for all of WT teams. This can range from a few riders (or even none) to 20 riders missing from a team's rider list. It's a real issue as the calculation of the teams' indexes for the 2020 season being totally wrong as they would be based on those incomplete lists.

A striking example in my career was Groupama-FDJ which only had 5 riders shown there (and no leader) and ended up in Pro Conti while they have in fact a full team of 24 riders for 2020 including all their leaders (Pinot, Démare, Gaudu, Küng, etc...). And on the opposite, there are smaller teams that went up due to them having less missing riders (i.e. Vital got in WT with their best rider at 76 avg, vs FDJ's having 3 riders at 78 avg).

Checked, and the missing riders seems totally random to me and not linked to a specific scenario, ie. changing team, renewing with the same team or continuation of the current contract, all 3 of those cases can be either missing or shown. The only thing is that it only happened to WT teams it seems.

Screens :
21/10 Transfer's team view, showing incomplete list
21/10 Team View, showing that there's supposed to be more than 5 riders in the team next year
25/10 Transfer's view, still showing incomplete list, though 2020 riders' count and team's evaluation is fixed as it now reads current values.
25/10 Team View, showing the correct 2020 riders list.



Also, while i'm at it, spotted another small issue in the Transfers tab while taking screens :
Looking at the WT teams list upon opening the Team tab. The list is showing the 2020 divisions (Cofidis being promoted and FDJ/Mitchelton demoted).
Switching to PCT, now it shows the 2019 PCT division (Cofidis being there, and no FDJ)
Switching back to WT, and Groupama-FDJ finally appears, 2019 WT being shown.

Have you done some editing or changed something manually because I've just checked my savegame (worlddb) on 07/10 (and simulated further to 24/10) and everything looks fine, all WT teams have their correct next season roster.

Only team related db edit was changing the contract end and max year from sponsors at beginning of career to avoid team names from changing over the years, which is something i'm doing on every career and that shouldn't cause such problems (and hasn't triggered any problems in the past, atleast 2013-2018).

i have the exact same problem. what i found, was that the missing riders are not completely random. when you look at the start of the carreer at the transfers negotiations, all contracts terminations are 0. the only cyclist who seem to be at the transfers team page, are the one who extended their contract. it is disgusting and you are nearly unable to play this game if this bug is not fixed. anyone ideas? or any idea how i can open the editor?

[Vlad]

@roykuik8 You can find database editors (such as PCM Fast Editor or Lachi's Excel Editor) on most PCM related community websites. Then you'll have to edit the teams' division manually (sort teams by their 'current evaluation' on 25/10 to see which teams should be in WT/PCT).

i cannot found the pcm fast editor for this years pcm..

You can use 2018 editor it works just fine
