minors players age unrealistic

ricobrown · 07-19-2006, 08:45 AM

When creating a league with low minors I found that the game creates alot of players with high ages. I would think that the low minors would be used you younger players, 16-20. It would be helpful or useful to have this when creating new fictional leagues so that we don't have multiple players that are to old for the minors. Maybe an age limit or maximum setting would be useful.

I looked into this a week or so ago, and there seems to be a definite relationship between the levels of your minors and the player ages. Rookie-level leagues definitely get tons of teenagers, as far as I can tell, and then it moves up a bit for each level up to Double-A. Triple-A of course essentially looks like a major league in its age distribution.

If you're seeing something different, I'd be interested to know what you're doing differently.

Please don't post threads directly into "Logged Issues", BTW.

Back home and with a little more time to write now...I should note that the generated ages seemed correct to me when attaching one level at a time. I have nothing specific to go on here, but I suspect when having several levels, the ages do get generated correctly, but after drafting the team AI proceeds to assign players based strictly on their ratings, so you'll see bad old players assigned too low, and excellent young players up too high.
