Penalty shoot-out: a level cup or playoff match goes to penalties. Choose Simple (your best five shoot and you watch, with fast forward) or Interactive (pick the takers, choose where to shoot and where your keeper dives)
Tactics has its own page: your team on the pitch seen from above, with formation, mentality, playing style and pressing
Roofs come in four steps per stand: a wooden roof (18 000) before level 5, a big wooden roof (100 000) before level 9, a modern roof (500 000) before level 13 and an arena roof (1 200 000) before the corners and the hotel. Expanding a roofed stand no longer costs 30% more
The fan club grows towards a quarter of your home crowd - faster when the fans love you. Promotion brings 20% more members, a cup win 10%
Academy signings stay at the club for two seasons: they cannot be sold or released before then
Finances: last season's profit or loss is shown as "From last season" just above NET
A player who decides to retire gives a message with a button to his page, and a red (R) in the squad list
Top 5 Scorers in The Pixel Post also shows your own best scorer in red when your club is not in the top five
Transfers: every tab has a history of old bids, offers and sales
News keeps the latest 100 news lines and 300 newspapers
Messages: old ones disappear when a newer one about the same thing comes, and the box scrolls when there are many

Every second paper shows the top 5 scorers in your league, with a picture of the leader
Christmas and New Year special at the end of the year: won/drawn/lost, the manager in a Santa hat with the fans' verdict and fan club, the league and last year, the cups with a short analysis, top 5 scorers with a gold medal, and your biggest buy and sale
History shows seats, net income, season base price, fan support, fan club members, team power and players in the squad for every season
About us under ?: who we are, support us, and a link to our website
The Pixel Post as soon as the final table is known: going up, playoff, staying, safe, champions or relegated - and after a lost playoff

Fans follow the table: a top-3 finish gives +10%, the bottom three -15%, and wins only lift support up to 80% - so a losing manager can get the sack
Promoted clubs are stronger: +6 to every attribute and a promotion bonus of 100 000 euro from the sponsors
A popup 10 weeks before contracts end, with a button to the squad; the free players you pick when under 15 are at your squad's level
New map when you choose your club: the Nordic countries in square tiles of green, with Estonia and Latvia too; every club is a square - red Allsvenskan, white Superettan, purple Ettan, yellow Division 2 - and the chosen club gets a white frame. The map no longer jumps when you pick a club
Medium now starts with 250 000 euro (Hard 50 000, Easy 500 000)
Players over 30 get worse a little faster, and half the stamina won in matches goes over the summer, so the leagues stay steadier
Finances: sponsors pay every week, so each sponsor row shows paid so far of the whole deal; the start support sponsor is shown under the shirt sponsor
Transfers: the market compares a player with your best and your weakest in the same position
Offers say if the player is on your transfer list or not, and with an assistant you get advice: keep him or sell
The manager page has two tabs: Manager and Staff
Updates show the date of every version
How to play: the game is fully offline and needs no internet or mobile data once downloaded

Shops, food and bar are cheaper to run (15 euro per level a week)
Fans: losses cost at most 10% a season and support comes back 10% towards 50% each new season; under 20% the board warns you, two seasons under 10% and you are sacked
Fighter bonus: clubs at the bottom get 10% better sponsor offers, the champion a little less
Slower rating growth and older players get worse, so the leagues do not get better and better
Grass in Division 2 wears 2 every third match; a basic youth coach costs 100 euro a week
At most 3 youngsters can join the first team each season
The ! test-money button is gone
Building takes longer again: each stand's expansions take 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and then 6 weeks; roofs, shops, screen, corners, hotel and the training ground take 6 weeks
How to play under ?: a section with a picture, steps and tips for every part of the game, plus Tips & tricks and the privacy policy
Weather on the pictures: rain on the stadium, the club home and the training ground when it rains that week, and falling snow when it snows
New way to choose your club: a drop-down list with town and club name, and a pixel map of Sweden with a dot for every club from Allsvenskan to Division 2 - tap a dot to pick that club

New look for the stadium and the youth ground: countryside with fields, a ditch, a road, trees, cows and a car park that fills up as the ground grows
Small grounds get red tin roofs; when you build the corners the whole ground gets a white membrane roof
Corners are wedges that fit between the stands, under one joined roof
Step 5 after the corners is now a glass hotel with an H on the roof (the office towers are gone)
Merch shop next to the entrance; bar, food and merch are all turned with their windows towards you and get a sign on the roof when they are big enough
Youth ground drawn like the stadium, with houses with tiled roofs, a running track, sports hall, seats, floodlights and a fence
Youth is now Youth & Training: the first team trains at the youth ground. Every step gives something - faster recovery, +passing, +power, +stamina, fewer injuries, quicker rehab, more fan support - and up to two more youngsters
A town behind the North End and East Stand that matches the club's home town: village houses, a community with a church, a smaller town with shops and flats, or a big city with tall buildings
Parks with paths, benches and a statue of a footballer in front of the ground and beyond the road

Grass quality 1-99 (best 25 in Division 2, 50 Ettan, 75 Superettan, 99 Allsvenskan): 2 worse every second match, a warning at 9 below, the players complain and play worse at home at 10 below - re-lay it on the stadium page
A stand being built is closed, and so are the bar, merch shop and food outlet while they are rebuilt
Corners now look like the stands with a roof, and steps 5-8 build a 4-floor office and hotel tower on each roof
