FM23 "Increase-Realism"-Megapack JANUARY ALPHA (16.12.22) (Patreon)

Hello, everyone! It's already time for the next ALPHA, although it's actually already a BETA. I had already invested a lot of time in testing :D

There are many changes/improvements as well as new files!

Brief overview of which files are new and which have been updated:

New:
DAVEINCID'S TAXES FIX
DAVEINCID'S CLUB TRANSFER PREFERENCES
DAVEINCID'S BELGIAN LEAGUE RULES FIX
DAVEINCID'S FRANCE LEAGUE RULES FIX
DAVEINCID'S ITALY LEAGUE RULES FIX
DAVEINCID'S SPAIN LEAGUE RULES FIX

updated:
DAVEINCID'S ALTERNATIVE YOUTH RATING + GAME IMPORTANCE & OTHERS
DAVEINCID'S WORLDWIDE AWARD FIXES
DAVEINCID'S YOUTH AND TRAINING FACILITIES IMPROVEMENTS
DAVEINCID'S SALARIES MARKET VALUES & SPONSORS
DAVEINCID'S NATIONAL TEAM REPUTATION FIX

DAVEINCID'S CLUB DATA FIX
DAVEINCID'S CHINA LEAGUE FILE SIMPLE VERSION


What do the changes do?

The focus for the January update is primarily on 3 things:

1.All major bugs in the financial area of ​​all vanilla nations should be fixed. This resulted in the "Taxes fix" file, which adds missing/insufficient taxes in Germany and China. Some of these correspond to a mix, since the tax rates can vary depending on the federal state (Germany). In China, the corporate tax was incorrectly filed, which at least partly explains the excessively high account balances. The finances in DaveTheEditor's nations have also been adjusted where necessary.

2. Improved reputation behavior/player development both in vanilla nations and in the nations of DaveTheEditor's ATG version 1. Here the focus was again on improvements for the "problem children" England, France, Italy, Spain.

Miscellaneous:

1. China has been giving me headache for 2 years now. the league rules create a financial mess. I've tried to adapt it as much as possible without changing real rules too much. It helped a bit, but I wasn't satisfied. So I decided to delete all complicated financial rules. Football Manager simply cannot deal with it correctly.
2. All other files contain minor adjustments which I don't all have in mind :D

That would be all I think^^

Further changes for this month are unlikely unless there is a bug feedback from your side. The db-setups aswell as my "List of files I recommend" is also updated so everything is ready for some relaxing pre-christmas gaming (or any other celebrations, depending on your religion) :D

I'll spend the next few days mainly with evaluations of save-games + think about future improvements :)

Cheers
David
