Why is the Budget 265 points less than my average revenue and 292 points less than the revenue for last year? My expenses are only 186, so that doesn't explain it.

Also, my budget for the Mets in FastSim 24 is over 350 points less than my revenue for each of the last 3 seasons.

Hi All,

I'm reading these posts and I appreciate the feedback already. I'm sorry I surprised everyone with these changes. I'm in the process of posting a full explanation of the changes (that I meant to go out last night).

You should notice that the 'Payroll Limit' equals Projected Revenue minus Expenses, plus 25% of your available Cash (or 0, if you are in debt).

I also made some changes to the underlying engine, so some big market teams will have less to spend. I'll keep posting throughout the day as we get this new version hammered out.

Thanks,

Clay
