That's what I assumed after reading your bug post. Also, didn't even realize until reading Luke's response on your bug post that there is a new feature in the editor displaying an expected current stats line. In Luke's response he says this, "If you look at the new lines in the editor for 25 that give expected output stats in the actual league the players are in, that will give a much better picture of what to expect, and you can then edit the players based on those values."

What stands out to me here is the "league the players are in." This would lead me to believe that if I'm looking at an NeL player in an NeL league the expected stats line would be in that league, but I'm not sure of this because when I look at an NeL player in an NeL league the expected current stats has MLB written next to it. And now I wonder that since the NeL is an affiliate of the MLB, that these expected stats line is for the MLB. But then Luke does mention in your bug post that you shouldn't look at the resulting stats line for editing since it will tell you nothing in a league with extreme values such as the NeL. So I'm confused and wonder what do these expected stats line reflect for NeL players, MLB or NeL?
Yes, that's precisely how I do it.

That response completely baffled me but it seems it's all I'm going to get.

Why should there be any slippage between the stats you put in for a player in the year and environment you want them to work and these so called "expected" stats?

In other words, if I am entering in stats for 1924 MLB into a player in an MLB save in 1924, why should the engine change them at all?

Neither it nor the response makes any sense to me, which is itself more reflective of the wider pattern I am seeing with dev interaction. I'm not sure even they know how the game works any more, or should work. Either that or they are just being wilfully obtuse, because some of the feedback from them for 25 has bordered on the nonsensical. The "make bads" discussion is a case in point. As, I believe, is this one of mine.

Not much I can do other than pack this in until the issue is hopefully addressed. I'm certainly not wasting my time with things as they currently are, which render the editor basically useless.

I will bump that other thread again in a couple weeks to see if I can get a straight answer. EDIT - I just did so now.
