Team Control Settings bug

[Dutch Alexander]

When I start an MLB standard game unemployed in commissioner mode and then assign myself to a team, the Team Control Settings do not function properly. Despite all settings being controlled by me the computer AI is making roster, lineup and depthchart changes for my team and is signing free agents.

When I start an MLB standard game in commissioner mode and choose a team right away then the Team Control Settings function properly.

Did you sign on to a team, or simply "Act as..." the team? If you act as the team, they're still under AI control, you just have the power to do stuff as their GM.

Otherwise, please double check that you are not listed as "do not disturb", which also is a way to hand back control to the AI.

No, I chose "Act as..." and assumed this made me the team's GM, but this is not the case. I now see that it even says so in the Manager Office tab. Never knew it worked like that.
So everything is working as it should. Sorry for waisting your time.
