Market Size

Lordofbrewtown · 12-02-2017, 06:58 PM

I have a fictional league. I went through and edited the Market size for all my fictional teams. After then creating new fictional players, and entering new fictional cities and assigning to teams, I noticed that all of the Market sizes have changed. I can edit/change them back; however, it's a little annoying, and I'm afraid they'll just change back randomly again. Is the market size tied in any way to the population of the city the team is located in (as assigned in the team page)?

Did you hit Enter after changing the Market sizes? I just did a 10 team White Sox league and changed teh market sizes for all 10 teams. After hitting enter they all stayed teh same. They will increase/decrease after each season (sometimes) based on how good or bad your team does.

Well, this is occurring again. I'm not sure if it's a bug, or how exactly market size is supposed to work. I'm trying to set the market sizes for each team. I edit them - very carefully, sure to hit enter afterwards.

However, after assigning to new financials, and fictional contracts to players and coaches, OOTP seems to arbitrarily change all of the market sizes - without any games being played. Some of the changes are quite significant.

Looking for any tips on how Market Sizes work/how to narrow the gap between teams in the league.
