playing a "historic" game - well, it's now a fictional historical, starting 1901. ....

anyway, at the end of each season (up to 1921 now), the AI generates literally hundreds of fictional Free agents, almost always in the 18-16 yr old range.

i have am. draft pool set to none
generate interntl discoveries set to none
generate interntl establ. fA set to none
generate free agents from Indy leagues set to none

i do have "fictional Player settings"
create players age -min 16 max 18 for the players (mostly Negro League players) i manually enter into my game.

just not certain if i am missing a setting some where that is auto creating these players at the beginning of Free agency. They are not coming from other teams, as almost none of those teams have any players that young and in my Amateur draft, there are only a handful of players created under 18. it's time consuming to delete these, but not a major issue. And certainly not worth raising a ruckus and quitting the game.

as i said, just curious if this is a botched setting of mine, or one of quirks of the game? Thanks.
