Historical import

Is it possible to import players from different years?
Like OOTP
Say I wanted to import Sergei Zubov into 2018
Possible?

Not possible to import him directly, no. If you only wanted to have a few historical guys, though, you could start a game in e.g. 93-94 to get Zubov in his prime, screenshot his ratings, and then create him in a 2018 game with those ratings.

Thank you very much 😊
In the future is this something that might be implemented?
Direct import

I'd definitely like to add it, yeah. Once we have a way to do that, it'll open up other possibilities for the historical data, too, like OOTP-style exhibition games between different historical teams and adding historical teams to custom leagues. But our historical database works differently than theirs, so there are some things we have to figure out first.
