πŸ” Understanding Registration Windows

Footium uses a dynamic registration window system to manage how players are assigned to clubs. There are two types of registration windows: Unlimited and Limited, each with different rules that influence how you manage your squad.


βœ… You can register players at any time during the season.

❌ You can only unregister players during registration windows β€” either a full Unlimited Window (pre-season) or a capped Limited Window (mid-season).


πŸ“† When Can You Register Players?

  • You can register players to your club at any time, even when all windows are closed.
  • But if a player is already registered to another club, they must be unregistered first before you can register them.


πŸ” When Can You Unregister Players?

  • Only during active windows:
    • Unlimited Window – pre-season: unregister and register as many players as you like.
    • Limited Window – mid-season: you can unregister a small number (e.g. 3 players), once per window.

You cannot unregister players outside of these windows, even if you want to sell or swap them.


βœ… Free Agent Rule (Always Active)

  • You can register free agents (unregistered players) at any time, even when other windows are closed.
  • Makes Free Agents uniquely valuable for mid-season additions.


⚠️ Important: Buying Players Mid-Season

  • If you buy a player that’s already registered to another club, they’ll stay at that club (playing games for them) until:
    • The current owner unregisters them during a limited window, or
    • The next unlimited window opens.
  • You can’t register that player to your club unless they’re a Free Agent.

So:

  • βœ… If you want to register and use a player immediately, buy a Free Agent.
  • ❌ If you buy a registered player, you’ll need to wait or ask the seller to unregister them mid-season.
