Hi all, am i doing something wrong, or does a fictional game only start in March? I really would like to start my universe on January 1st..

workaround:
start 1 year early, sim to day you want to start... erase all league history, stats, player history/stats, etc etc... main League Settings page. various functions can do this with simple click(s). --- rest is just ideas/wrinkles even start the game keeping Nothing anywhere you have a choice, if you really want to get serious about it, lol. anyway... after you do that, it's just like a new game.. . i generally start ~30 years early and sim to present day, as an example... i turnover the seed players from league inception with fictionally created players, as you will see in perpetuity from then on (20-30years in is ~100% turnover). if you did turn off transaction logs etc... don't forget to revert to your typical settings... it's worth it for many years, iconsequential for a year sim. it saves time simming those "many" years and you will delete all history, anyway-- if oyu went that route. there is a difference between seed players and fictionally created players -- quality and distribution... LTMs will need to be adjusted somewhat frequently, if you play through this transition. if you do that, you won't see a wild statistical difference, no worries, that's probably how most people play. |
