Great news, Spritze. Was this included in OOTP 9 or just OOTP 10? I suppose I should load up OOTP 9 and have a look, but I didn't have it installed on this machine yet.

By the way, if the AI does not value players based on future performance, it IS a huge advantage to the human. Others may be using settings to make the game more random, but if you use historical players and have their ratings re-calculated every year based on the previous, forthcoming, and next season after that, the players tend to have a value almost identical to what they had in real life.

So, if the AI can't see their future value, the human GM can draft players who maybe start slowly but will have very bright futures. So it makes it easy to build an unstoppable team.
