Draft Pool Creation Issue

Not sure if this a bug necessarily, but the draft pool creation for the draft pool that is farthest out is creating too many HS players. This leads to the "Draft HS Target Pct" to never being matched and always ending up over the target amount by the time the draft comes up for that year.

For example in my league where I have a pool of 720 players for the draft, my target of 40% would be 288 HS players roughly each year, however the initial creation will make 240 players, and the next season it'll add about another 80, so on an so forth til we end up with a draft with a near majority of HS players despite the target being set to a lower amount. I've tested this with different target rates and every time it will create 240 HS players. My workaround to this is to delete them all and let it re-gen the following year and it'll be correct, but then I'm having to delete the farthest out class every year to get the right numbers for college and HS players.

I'm just wondering if the default creation # for HS players needs to be adjusted for the 4 year out classes so that we can get classes that fit the targets we set?

In a test of 40% HS players, I end up with 370 HS players in a 720 player class.
