Hiring head coach problem

[pitfall317]

When I try to hire a head coach from the Private list either I get an error when I advance a day or no matter what I offer the coach doesn't accept and it auto picks a coach. Below is the error log, any help would be appreciated.

Can you upload your .bin file to https://1drv.ms/f/s!AnHBGALZN-MFzUG4RlHmHwksClu8

We're having trouble re-creating this scenario... thanks!

[pitfall317]

I uploaded the .bin file. I hope it's the correct one. Thanks for your help.

[AKH]

thx, I will look at it over the weekend.

ok found the issue, but will need a patch going forward to get rid of the error message.

The message however is noncritical, so try just clicking ok, go back ito the game and click 'sim staff signing week 1' again, and you should see it progress as normal. (I am pretty certain this should work with no repercussions - but just in case back up your league file before you do it)
