IMPORT STATS

Teams.csv

The first line of this file is ignored. It contains the following header info:

Abbr,Region,Nickname,Stadium,Capacity,Type,Surface,Year Opened,Cost,Convenience,Comfort,Sight Lines,Loyalty,Ticket Price,Division,City

Each of the following lines defines one team in the imported league. For example:

ARI,Arizona,Red Birds,Mogul Stadium,73234,OPEN,GRASS,1960,50000000,1000,1000,1000,1000,3000,7,Phoenix

Each entry is interpreted as follows:

Column Description
Abbr The team's 3-letter (or less) abbreviation. For example, "NE" for the "New England Moguls".
Region First part of the team's name. For example, "New England" for a team called the "New England Moguls".
Nickname Second part of the team's name. For example, "Moguls" for a team called the "New England Moguls".
Stadium The name of the team's stadium.
Capacity Maximum seating capacity of the team's stadium.
Type Stadium Type. Accepted values are OPEN, DOMED and CONVERTIBLE. (Default = OPEN).
Surface Playing Field Surface. Accepted values are GRASS and CARPET. (Default = GRASS).
Year Opened The year the team's stadium was first opened. (This value is not currently used in Football Mogul).
Cost Cost to build the team's stadium in dollars. (This value is not currently used in Football Mogul).
Convenience The stadium's convenience rating on a scale from 0-2000. This rating affects attendance.
Comfort The stadium's comfort rating on a scale from 0-2000. This rating affects attendance.
Sight Lines The stadium's sight lines on a scale from 0-2000. This rating affects attendance.
Loyalty The team's starting fan loyalty rating on a scale from 0-2000. This rating affects attendance.
Ticket Price The team's starting average ticket price, in cents (e.g. "3000" = $30.00).
Division Number from 0-7 indicating the team's division. 0-3 refers to divisions in Conference #0. 4-7 refers to divisions in Conference #1.
City The name of the team's home city. Football Mogul will try to find this name in the current list of cities. Use the City Editor to add cities, or verify city names.

The 3-letter abbreviations entered here will be used when importing player statistics (such as from players.csv, passing.csv, punting.csv, etc.). Therefore, each team must have a different 3-letter abbreviation. In matching strings, Football Mogul ignores capitalization. For example, 'OAK' will match 'Oak'.

Tip: If Football Mogul reads a line of stats with a 3-letter abbreviation it cannot recognize, it will interpret the entry as a number, and assign the stats to the that team based on the order in which the teams are listed in teams.csv.
