After Unretiring Players

LoDo · 04-15-2005, 01:10 AM

After unretiring players, is there any way to delete the copy that Pierre's utility creates? I had never unretired anybody before, and I did it before I hit the "Proceed to Next Season" button and the players retired again right away (DUH) and now there are now two of the same retirees.

Any help would great, thanks.

Dont use the utility until after you proceed to next season. They will automatically retire after each season no matter what, so if you want to keep them past that season youll have to unretire them agian. Nothing you can do about the copies if you use the utility. I believe Pierre once said he thought he would try to make a version that deleted the copies in the future but that seems pretty unlikely at this point. I tried using it a couple times and found it to be more trouble than its worth (especially when used with cato). Best way I have found to "unretire" players is simply not let them retire in the first place if you want to keep them around. I backup before i proceed to next season and before I start the season and just change the ages -10 years of everyone who says they will retire or did retire in the offseason (sometimes this takes quite a few times since keeping one player from retire often leads to someone else who didnt annouce it to now retire) Then after i just change the ages back.
