Okay this is what I am getting. When I save my league as a saved game file but change the extension to .template, I get 1380 players enough for my 45 man roster (25+20 reserve roster). When I save the file as a world template and have the initial draft it brings in 2760 players leaving 1440 in the free agent pool after the draft. I am trying to figure out where the extra players came from. I want to have the draft and only have the 30 players left undrafted. If I can't get the world template to work I will just use the system I am using now where I saved a league file on Jan 1, a day before the inaugural draft.

Also, the reason AI wanted to use the world template was because I think it rebuilds the player database and you won't have the same players in the game. With a saved file copied you get the same players so if you start your league over you already know who is going to perform well. Anybody have any answers to this issue?

Questions:

1. Is there anyway to have the world template not have so many players available for the inaugural draft?

2. Are the players the same each time you import the .wpt file into the game or do the names change?

Any help on this would be appreciated. Thanks.
