Regarding Minimum Age in OOTP

Sox2013 · 03-23-2017, 12:47 PM

Hey, I'm the head softball coach at a local private school, and I'm trying to use OOTP to (vaguely) simulate our local league (both for research and practical application for my team). The problem is that our league allows players as young as 7th grade (age 12-13) to play. It doesn't seem OOTP will allow players that young. Any way around that?

No I don't and actually I don't think this feature really works because for my major league I have the minimum age is 18 but I always have several players that are 17 making the league

OOTP has a hardcoded minimum age limit of 14. You can't make a player younger than 14 in the editor.

Of course, if you go into the database manually, you can edit birth dates...

Ah yes, the "Joe Nuxhall" rule. He was actually 15 when he debuted in 1944 though.
