Billion dollar contracts

[Chimaera]

I'm seeing some weird contracts being signed by teams in this fictional league. There are maybe 18 players have have signed contracts where their annual salary exceeds $330 million, with four players exceeding a billion dollars a year - https://i.imgur.com/iuiZ7xo.png

Here's an example of the most egregious contract - https://i.imgur.com/QYg6xOJ.png

Also here's a screenshot of the league's financial settings - https://i.imgur.com/wucYeSP.png

Some of these contracts are causing teams to have negative salary expenses, which causes them to have hundreds of millions in budget room - https://i.imgur.com/F4lSAWm.png

This is only two years into the league that I've been testing these settings out on.

I've uploaded the file to the ftp server under "billion_dollar_contracts."

Integer overflow is fun!

I figured this is what was happening.

I had this happen a few times in a fantasy league I made with OOTP18. The problem was I added an extra zero (or two) when I manually set contract amounts in the league setup.

This is why I included a screenshot with the league financial settings. There doesn't appear to be any extra zeroes in any of the settings. I'll double check my template when I get home and run the test again though.

It could be in a minor league or another league in the universe, but I'm pretty sure you'll find that there is an extra zero somewhere

If you're sure there isn't post and let us know (and maybe upload your league files as well).

I've only been testing the league setup for a fictional online league, so I just went back and redid the template and everything seems to be working fine. Maybe there was an extra zero in one of the international leagues.
