Mass Delete Players (not free agents)

[mikeydz]

I've been tinkering around with trying to force my college feeder league to not create fictional players, but only draw players from my high school feeder. I've got it up to about 90%, but it's still making a few fictional players. I've set it to where the fictional college players are created as 2 year olds so the are easier to find. What I want to do to help speed up my tinkering is delete all those babies. I know the button on the FA screen to delete all FA's, but is there a way to mass delete everyone who fits a criteria even if they are on a roster?

Babykiller! But if you must, here's how I recommend going about it:

1. Go to the league menu and select the league in question.
2. Click "List all XXX Players."
3. Click Filter, Customize.
4. Click and select in drop-down windows until it reads "Age Is Below 3" (*sniff* ).
5. Only the doomed babies should be displayed now.
6. Click the mass selection button in the top left of the player list window. It's the button in the column headings bar, right under View.
7. Right-click one of them and select Delete Players.*

*I forgot to mention that you need to assume Commissioner powers in Manager Options in order to delete players.

EDIT: Don't forget to clear that filter when you are done.

Thanks very much. You should see the ratings on some of the lil tykes. Studs at 2, give them 15 years to develop, they would be hall of Famers by 20.

Hey I'm interested in how you've gotten your feeder leagues set up so that the highschool players go into the college leagues. Would you mind posting a How-to-guide on how you have your league set up?

if you set the league creation to 99. the players retire and you dont have to worry about deleting them.
