-
- IMPROVEMENT - Improved the routine to find a players shirt number.

- position information for Goalkeepers, when stepping
- through the list of players.
-
- ADDITION - Added routine to show players contract details on the
- Player Info screen.
-
- BUG FIX - Another error in the player position routine, which
- caused the editor to show left sided players as right
- sided players and vice versa.

- section of the editor, instead the Player and Club info
- screens now have a text button on them, which enables you
- to edit text from there.

- extra buttons on the 'Choose Division' screen. Lists of

-
- ADDITION - Shirt Swap routine. On the Club Info Screen, pressing the
- right mouse button on a player, allows you to swap the
- player's shirt around with another player.

- button which displays a small information screen about
- how the particular page contains and how it works.
-
- IMPROVEMENT - About. There is now only one About page. In the Lite

- register to.
