This version will be the introduction of a new feature: Conference Invites/Realignment. Every four completed seasons, conferences will review their membership. Programs will be evaluated based off their winning performance, conference/postseason achievements etc. You will not be able to get an invite to a new conference without satisfying both a high program score(winning percentage) and actual post season success(Confernce championships, NBI results, natl tourney bid and championships etc) which will be recency-weighted, meaning recent accolades will hold more weight than older ones. But keep in mind you can satisfy all requirements and still not get an invite! Invites aren’t guaranteed! A team must be available to swap out , you must clearly outperform that outgoing team and that team must be able to move into your conference. Confernce movement are also region locked and must make sense. You will not get invites to a conference in the east coast if your team is on the west coast etc. You can only move up one tier per Membership review! You will not go from F tier conference to an A+ tier conference after 4 years - it will be a grind! You will be able to find all conference moves in the side navigator on the “Conference changes” page.

This version is mostly for users with Editor Mode. You will now find a page called “Courts” in the side navigator under “Management” You will have the ability to edit any school court in the game. You will be able to edit the colors of the court and also place logos/images on the court. Also in this version is a bug fix to tournment selection. Teams were getting their prestige doubles counted. Because of this high prestige teams that had no business being in the National Tournament were slipping through.

*HOTFIX* BUG FIXES: •Wrong names on Awards page •National COY missing from coach bio •Worked on sim engine logic FEATURE: •Users can now manually adjust players minutes in the “depth” page. This is a cool feature that gives you more control over who’s on the floor for your team.

*HOTFIX* • Fixed a bug where players who transferred schools would show empty game logs when viewing their stats from a previous season.

This version is headlined by “Scheme” page redesign. It will now display the best fit for your roster and also give you a detailed pop up showing you the synergy and the factors that contribute to that score. Also in this version is a redesign of the “Depth” page, “roster” page, schedule and retention phase. Also small bug fixes.

During the season the “Award” page will now be occupied with a watchlist showing all the players and coaches in the race for end of the season awards. The watchlist will update weekly and show the movements with a small badge. This version also includes a bunch of small bug fixes and some polishing.

This version will headline the introduction of the National Basketball Invitational(NBI) The NBI will be a postseason tournament mirroring the NIT, where the best schools that didn’t make the National Tournament will have the chance to play each other. Low prestige schools Athletic Directors will almost always see the NBI as a reward and give the coach(you) the option to accept the invitation or decline. While high prestige schools with national tournament hopes will almost always decline the invitations. If you’re at a high prestige school with national tournament hopes and still want to accept the invite to the NBI you would need at least 60 goodwill built up from previous years with the Athletic Director to convince him to enter. The NBI can be a sneaky way to salvage a bad season where you missed the national tournament that your athletic director was expecting. It’s also a good way to build up the prestige of lower prestige schools as it adds +1 prestige if you win it all.

Behind the scenes upgrades.

•Contract extensions overhauled: an extension can no longer come back lower than the deal you already have, staying somewhere and winning now earns a loyalty premium worth up to about 40%, a coach already paid more than their school would normally offer no longer takes a pay cut just for re-signing, the offer card shows whether your salary actually moved, and the recruiting and staff raises you're offered now reach your budget instead of being discarded when the next season starts.

*HOTFIX* No more cheesing to keep leaderboard integrity •Fixed exploit where users would watch live and if didn’t get results they wanted would exit to dashboard and back to simulation screen and sim again.

*HOTFIX* • Fixed a run of tournament bugs: the in-season tournament prize screen could refuse to accept "Confirm & Continue" until you force-closed the app. • Fixed winning your conference tournament didn't bring up the championship screen if you watched the final live — the trophy and Continue button only appeared after you left the tournament screen and came back. • Tornament depth chart - conference and national tornaments now honor your set rotation instead of falling back to a top-8-by-overall sort. • Neutral court in Watch Live - watched tournament games no longer hand the bracket's team1 slot a home-court bonus.

This update is headlined by the introduction of “Game Flow” chart. Players can now get more transparency on how games unfolded. Other updates: • In-Season tournaments read the static prestige baked in during game creation. Before if you built a low prestige team up to a high prestige team you would get the same tournament invites. Now the In-season tournaments reads your dynamic prestige. •Sim engine didn’t have any unforced turnovers, it was all contributed to steals. Now players will loose the ball, step out of bounds, bad passes etc. •Bumped team fouls per game to a more realistic number — Now players can actually foul out. •Made a smart substitution system for fouled out players. The system is positioned-aware and tries to sub a player for the same position if available and not just the highest overall player on the bench. •Cleaned up some watch live game log bugs. And removed the conference trophy that was being shown on In- season tournment courts.

•Added In-Season tournaments(MTE) •Worked on tournament sim engine, crazy upsets should be tuned down. •Added NIL And class filter to transfer portal and HS recruiting.

*HOTFIX* •Fixed postseason box scores showing inflated FG/3PT/FT stats on quick-simmed tournament games. • Adjusted tournament sim engine - should be slightly less upsets.

•Bug fixes and UI polish

*HOTFIX* •Fixed CPU filler players showing wrong graduation years, recycling the same name and portrait, inheriting a previous player's Hall of Fame page, and generating unrealistically high overall ratings. • display bugs related to Arena capacity upgrades

In version 2.1 I'm introducing Arena and Facilities upgrades. Hit certain yearly milestone like winning a certain amount of games, winning Conference Championship, top 50 recruiting class, tournament runs etc and booster will award you with funding to help upgrade the arena and facilities. The higher the prestige team the deeper the booster pockets - but much harder milestones. Also your Athletic Director will take some off the top depending on his personality. Some won't take any and some will take a nice handful Bugs fixed in this version: teams overall in job offer during create a coach screen being wrong. Nil budget being inflated the first year after contract extension due to the increase in nil being calculated in the carry over.
