A few questions about league setup

Elader · 11-09-2012, 12:39 PM

Hi everyone!

I created a league with random cities and nicknames. I then edited each of the teams, moving their city and changing their team names, colors, etc.

The problem I've run into is that teams are playing in ballparks with names that don't make any sense. For instance my Detroit team is playing in Indianapolis Field. Is there a way to edit stadium names?

Second, I am unable to find where I can change league information like subdivision names, playoff series names and championship title name. I would much rather have an American League champion than a SL1 champion. Is there anywhere to change these names?

I've played through one full season and am I. The off season following my first year. I cannot seem to find options to change these things.

If anyone can point me in the right direction, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks!

Currently, there is no way to re-name ballparks. When creating a fictional league, the game builds its ballpark database during the initial setup based on the randomly generated cities/team names--when you go back to re-name the cities/teams after you've started your league, the game does not update the ballpark database to reflect your changes. This is a huge pet peeve of mine whenever I play a fictional league. Maybe a ballpark re-name feature will make it into the next release (a few of us have requested it), which would be great for those of us who like to play fictional leagues.

Also unfortunately you can't go back and re-name the playoff stages or the league/division names AFTER you've gone through the initial setup. The only time you can customize the playoff stage names is during the setup. Again, this feature to re-name after league setup has been requested and hopefully it will make it into iOOTP 2013.
