Bug: No draft in historical league?

Nice to see the game released. Good job! Unfortunately the draft seems to be missing in historical play.

It is obviously enabled at the start but there are no draft picks to trade nor a draft to be held.

Anyone else noticed this?

Commish mode or are you managing a team?

It's the same problem with both modes.

Which year are you trying to play, and what settings? There are a few where the draft pool starts empty, or nearly so, in certain configurations because of actual historical reasons.

I have tried 1991, 1992 and I believe 2004...

Edit: I did check all boxes when creating the game.

No, you're right, they're gone, I just checked a couple of different seasons. I'm baffled, I know they were there while I was testing the historical stats. Sebastian's checking on it now to see what went wrong.

Edit: ha, I knew I wasn't losing it, at least not for this reason, they really were there when I was testing. When changes were made last night to allow forward-compatibilty for future updates, somehow the historical drafts were lost in the process. It'll be fixed in the Friday patch.

I've had EMPTY drafts twice in 4 years.
And when there are drafts, they're only 4-5 rounds deep.

That's stupid. There should be THOUSANDS of leftover players.

It´s impossible to do research on players from the 60's,70's like Freddy Eggshaker who maybe played for the Yadayada Icebulls in 1971.
I´m in the process of doing a photopack for all players from 47 up until the 80's and believe me there is just close to none data available online so it would make no sense to blow up drafts from the 50's to the 70's just to fill up 12 rounds of players which you won´t use anyway.
