I found a major flaw when trading against computer teams. If the 1st player on the list of player you want to receive from the other team is acceptable, you can aquire players of much greater value when adding players after the 1st acceptable player on the list. Commissioner Mode is OFF. Here's an example:

- I want to aquire (MR) Glenn Heizer from the 'Bee Ridge Bees'.

1) I first offered (MR) Curtis Sul for (MR) Glenn Heizer - 'Complete Trade' button is ghosted.

2) I remove (MR) Glenn Heizer from the other team's list in the trade and replace with a lower quality player (SP) BJ Critterton - 'Complete Trade' button is now activated and I can complete the trade if I wanted to.

3) I don't complete the trade yet, I add back the player I wanted in the first attempt (MR) Glenn Heizer to the trade along with (SP) BJ Critterton - the 'Complete Trade' button is still active and I can complete the trade if I wanted to (contrary to my first attempt).

4) It gets worse for the computer team, I can proceed to add up to 8 more good quality players (10 total) to receive for my 1 player who isn't good at all - contrary to my 1st offer/attempt.

NOTES: Commissioner Mode is turned OFF, Finance/Salary turned OFF.
- I also tried to trade (MR) Curtis Sul for (MR) Glenn Heizer straight up - hitting the 'Submit' button. The proposal was rejected.

I uploaded my data files: ftp://ftp.sigames.com/ootp/game-save/dim2.zip

To reproduce this bug:

Go to the trade screen (my teams is called 'Mikloshville Crows' - Level 10 League). Select the 'Bee Ridge Bees' to trade with.

1) Offer (MR) Curtis Sul - for - (MR) Glenn Heizer - 'Complete Trade' button will be ghosted out

2) Offer (MR) Curtis Sul - for - (SP) BJ Critterton - 'Complete Trade' button will be activated.

3) Offer (MR) Curtis Sul - for - (SP) BJ Critterton AND (MR) Glenn Heizer (I have Glenn Heizer listed #2 - but believe order doesn't matter) - 'Complete Trade' button will be still be activated.

4) You can then add 8 more good players to aquire - not any player you want, but about 50% of them.
