  • NEWThe offseason now has its own Free Agency sidebar hub with public suitors, player lean, and expected decision week — rival bid amounts stay private
  • FIXRejected offers no longer lock the player behind My Office cleanup; managers can immediately return with a new offer
  • FIXCompleted and sniped offers dismiss cleanly instead of being mislabeled as withdrawn
  • CHANGEOffseason decisions remain staggered across the market, and AI teams continue to protect star talent, roster balance, and real-player upgrades over weak generated replacements
  • NEWExpansion setup can now create empty rosters, preserving the selected franchises while importing zero cross-era players — ideal for mixed-world saves and duplicate-free free-agent rebuilds
  • CHANGERoster cards now show player age and current-season K/D for starters, bench players, and unassigned players
  • CHANGEQuick Sim and Play Live now use the same spatial Hardpoint engine on authored maps — movement, fights, hill possession, and each player’s hill time come from the simulated agents instead of post-match stat allocation
  • FIXAdvance Week now detects regular and tournament fixtures; an unplayed Major or Champs series sends you to Circuit instead of silently simming the bracket and jumping ahead
