UI Updates
Player Table Only the player’s image stays fixed when scrolling horizontally, making the table more readable on mobile devices. The sub-position and position columns have been merged into one. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45111527/da4b8392ca66e7eeeb9c769b0af4daa73b98e92e.png Matches After you click the "Sim this round" button to simulate matches of the active round, the button will changes to a "Next round" button, which lets you move to the next round. You don't have to scroll down to use the pagination button to switch rounds anymore. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45111527/3724b5184ed81ba4e08fdf4a1e8e7f2ebcda5596.png Milestone The "Milestone" feature will be deprecated and removed due to the unnecessary complexity it adds relative to how heavily underused it is. It will be replaced with another feature in the future.

Workshop Improvements, Editor Updates
Workshop You can import mods either from custom .json files or directly from the Steam Workshop. Custom .json files are available via the “Download” icon. You can also download the file in the "Preview" tab. Because the mod format is a clear, human‑readable JSON, anyone knowing how to edit JSON can mass edit the file and re‑import it into the game. If you’re not familiar with coding, you can just ask an AI assistant to help you edit the mod data. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45111527/74a6e36a271ef77e2a4026662001d0b188467fec.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45111527/3186335aa947a15e748f37bb4b9c447ba5b456a8.png Editor A new qualification rule has been added to exclude teams that have already participated in a previous stage. The Loser’s World Cup uses this rule to exclude teams who reach the World Cup finals in the same season. To use it correctly, make sure that the previous stage has started before your current stage.

Bulk Editing Teams
Bulk Editing Introduced a modern, web-standard selection system to the My Teams and Add-on Teams sections. Select teams by clicking the checkbox on each team card, then perform bulk actions such as Activate All or Save All Selected Teams to My Teams. No more updating teams one by one. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45111527/0886e4dab024c8f7b846548bcd07322126827181.png The new Bulk Edit tab also lets you either bulk insert or delete tags, human name pools and rankings at once—a quality-of-life improvement for users managing large collections of custom teams. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45111527/cead7485aa3f03c95ee79e28726d53a7adae93e8.png Workshop You can upload milestone rules in the editor. Bug Fixes All team flags in the milestone rule section should appear again. Site; https://simcups.comRead full article on Community Announcements (laukaichung)Patch NotesOfficial
Small Updates
Rivalry intensity no longer drops after a match. Instead, all rivalries will gradually decay slightly at the end of each season. The editor now enforces that every stage has a slug. In most cases, entering the stage name is sufficient—the editor will handle the rest.Read full article on Community Announcements (laukaichung)AnnouncementsOfficial
Simcups Workshop Launch!
The Forever World Cup Workshop is officially up. Create, share, and subscribe to custom teams, competitions, venues, jerseys, and much more—all directly in-game. Mod Creator & Editor With the Workshop Editor, you can create or update mods. A mod can include teams, competitions, or both.

Otherwise, they can not be exported into the mod. Import Mods On the "Mods" page, you can import all your subscribed mods with just one click with a few customizations. If there are mods you want to exclude, just disable them before starting the import. There are also two team-related options: 1. Skip importing teams from mod files 2. Clone imported teams to the My teams section {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45111527/8773a58a9b6af332b0de11d80222a1d1ebc5c165.png Sync Note (macOS / Steam Client) On macOS, or when using the Steam desktop client, a newly subscribed mod may not appear immediately.
