The File Menu.
-------------
LAST SEASON
will load the fixtures and results
from the last complete season.
On your disk, this file is recorded
as fixt_00.dat
Once LAST SEASON is in memory, the
current season is put on hold. Only
friendly matches may now be played.
Many functions will be disabled:
save, new, kick-off, top scorers, etc
are no longer available.
The cursor will also change.
We are now in REVIEW MODE. \
The whole idea of loading an old season
whether from the LAST SEASON or from
the LOAD SEASON boxes is to quickly
view past results, maybe to check how
you did against your next opponents.
The obvious path to follow, in this
mode, in to click on TABLES, then
click on SELECT ANY WEEK. Full records
will now be at your fingertips.
Another useful feature is to load any
logo in, click on it, and select
FIXTURE LIST. You will be presented
with the full history of that
particular team during the season
under review. \
Once in 'REVIEW MODE', the LAST SEASON
box will now say RESUME.
You have to click on RESUME if you
want to exit REVIEW MODE and carry on
with the default mode.
The next box in this FILE MENU is
SAVE. If you want to save your records
click on this one at any time during
the championship, except at the very
end of the very last day, when it
will instead appear as NEW SEASON.
You'll have to click on NEW SEASON
to save the ENTIRE championship for
posterity. It will always be saved
as FIXT_00.DAT. All fixtures will
then be reset and a new season may
commence with bank balances, skill
levels and squads left unchanged. \
SAVE does a complete save of all
squad and club records, replay list
and results so far.
But the week pointer will remain as
it is.
Whenever you click on SAVE, do make
sure that your disk is NOT protected
The next entry is NEW.
This is an uncompromising feature.
Everything gets reset to the original
standard. You are in effect overwriting
your records with the default files
always held on disk.
Needless to say full confirmation will
be asked for and you will have to answer
with the keyboard only. \
EDITOR , the next entry, gives you
access to all 920 players.
You can change the names and positions.
Password is required to change skills
and valuations.
LOAD SEASON is similar to LAST SEASON
except that here you may choose which
particular season you want to load:
0 is the one just gone. You may
retrieve up to 21 seasons.
Once this feature is active, you are
in REVIEW MODE again, as confirmed by
the rectangular cursor. A new box will
now appear just underneath: SAVE AS. \
The season you have just loaded may be
re-saved under any name from 1 to 20.
Make sure you do not overwrite a
season that you were particularly
proud of.
PROMOTIONS is only active during the
early part of the season. It will
re-arrange the two division as per
entries shown under HONOURS.
As all master files will be changed
use with care.
This covers all the options under
the FILE menu. ]
