10.34 Fictional players are too young in new games [Fixed 11.04]

[etothep]

started a new game (2007) and chose to use fictional players

i then see that there are nearly 70 players age 17 or younger, including 20 who arent even 17 and 1 one is 13

as you can see in the pic, some of these players are already on teams, not just in the draft pool

any way to alter the age parameters of the game?

...no
Who's rosters are you using?

[CatKnight]

Fictional players he said. No rosters, I imagine.

13..14 years old...

Look at the salary. The 13 year old is in the Majors. The 15 year old has a CONTRACT!

What I do, Eto, is to scroll down in the appropriate dialogue box (bottom L.H. corner of the Editing sceen) to where I can "age" the player up to his early twenties,

Works wonders for his overall ratings! Plus your fictional starters may not lose 20 games per season, and some of your hitters rise above the Mendoza line.

yes, im aware i can age the players, i just dont think i should have to when i start a new fictional game (which i occassionally feel the need to do as playing the real players seems too easy sometimes, when i dont want to move a team to wyoming for a challenge)

[Coach Owens]

Yep, does it for me too.

Not only that, but Oakland has a 15 year old as their starting catcher.

And do you find it tough, in fact, Gentlemen, to play these young rookies against (presumably) seasoned teams?

[Red Sox Fan 734]

Wow a 13 year old making 380,000 a year.

[ohms_law]

Gotcha... thanks.

I think this has become "unfixed" by 11.10. Please check here: http://forum.sportsmogul.com/showthread.php?t=182054
