FM18 Editor VS FM17 Editor
In previous years it has not been possible to tell if an edit file has been used to create a new save game. In FM 2018’s Pre-Game Editor, hovering over the number of database changes on the Game Status screen reveals the names of any edit files used when creating the game.Users wishing to utilise certain ‘Player Preferred Moves’ may be interested to learn that this year players can be searched for in the editor by PPM, allowing managers to filter for players who possess a specific PPM when searching the database. In a similar fashion, non-playing staff can be searched for via their ‘Non-Player Tendencies’.
Finally, when setting up new league or cup competitions via the Editor, managers can multi-select match times on fixture lists. This helps when editing competitions on the fly, as previously what should have been a simple change in the standard fixture time for a competition had to be effected by editing each individual match time.
