Hey everyone,

I just started a new standard game. When doing the amateur draft in my last game, it would list which high school/college the player was from, but in this new one it doesn't. Did I set a setting wrong or something?

Thanks in advance!

My guess is that players were created for the draft, rather than coming from feeder leagues.

On the LeagueSettings/Rules screen, in the section dealing with amateur drafts, there is a setting "Draft feeding mode".

If this is set to "Feeder league players + additional players", then the game will create enough players who did not come from the feeder leagues for the amateur draft.

If not, then I believe the draft will end early if there are not enough feeder league players.

I always try to make sure there are more feeder league teams than recommended, so that only feeder league players (with a high school or college history) appear in my amateur drafts.

There is a section describing "How many feeder leagues should I create?" in the online manual:
http://manuals.ootpdevelopments.com/...feeder-leagues

Another possibility is that the settings for the feeder leagues (such as age) may not be set up properly.
