Good job figuring it out, and for helping me figure out that I definitely need to stick with OOTP16 for mine because in OOTP16 you can tie the stats output, strategy settings, and player creation modifiers to a specific year while at the same time having financial settings advance as they did historically.

Between 16 and 18 something must've happened that doesn't allow you to do this anymore. Do I have that right, or were you able to tie together stats output, strategy settings, and player creation modifiers from 1984? Maybe you allowed the stats output modifiers to be whatever the game gave you when you input "1984" as the year that you wanted them to be, rather than reverting them all to 1.000 (which would give you an output closer to 2016 I think, which may have been why your strikeouts went so high and HR went up with them, as HR and K have definitely increased lately). Would love to see both sides of your Stats & AI settings page, plus your Financials settings page, and your Players settings page to see what you did, and see if I can replicate it in OOTP18. Thanks crawdad5000, and (hopefully) enjoy your random debut game.
I'll post some more stuff soon, but as far as financials, I still have to input the current year after the off season because they revert to 1984. I'll tell you this, all 8 teams have become extremely popular after just four seasons. Popularity, size, interest is all maxed or near maxed for each team. Could be because once I fix the finance for the current year I have to click on the three buttons, player contracts, coaches contracts, team budget, to get the numbers back in line for the year I'm in.

I unchecked the button to auto import finances so now when I input 1984 every preseason the finances stay at the season I'm in.

As far as modifiers, I just left them all checked this time and just make sure I input 1984 at preseason. Seems to be working.
