Hypothetical "Editor" Feature List thread

JayWigley · 07-28-2011, 11:51 PM

So, a couple times we've asked for the ability to edit certain things in the game, and there's an idea that maybe one day we can do that with a separate app or PC/Mac tool.

So I'm starting this thread so we can request specific editing features.

I'll start:
I'd like to be able to edit the following characteristics on any in-progress season:
Team Colors
Team Stadium name
Park Factors (does the game even use park factors?)
Statistical performance--change a league from one era to another, statistical "normal" changes
League name
Sub-league name
injury probability (both frequency and severity)

On the back burner, I'd also love to be able to create or edit leagues to be fictional/historic leagues. . .like a 1903 season with all fictional players with only US players. . .but I realize that I should just buy OOTP for that.

Use multiple stadium pictures

I think the multiple stadium thing is a code change for the game though, not a simple edit like a standalone program could accomplish. Or did I misunderstand? I could see changing the stadium picture from the stock one to a custom one, but it would apply to the whole game, all saved games, and not work for team-by-team gameplay because the game is coded to use a single file, not a file tied to a specific team.

Pali said at one point it would be added. Maybe things have changed. Also would it not be the same as adding custom logos? Maybe it is more of a pain than I thought it would be.
