Can I Do This With OOTP?

JohnM68 · 04-15-2015, 12:07 AM

I am considering purchasing OOTP to run some simulations.

Can I:

1. Set parameters and run the same game several thousand times (using the same parameters, same lineup, same everything?)

2. Am I able to set the weather and if so, what are the settings available?

3. After the simulation is finished, can I get stats on all players (batters and pitchers) from each individual game? That is, if I simulate 50000 games, can I get 50,000 different results listed in one file?

a. If so, can these stats include number singles, doubles, triples, and home runs (per game) among the standard stats?
Thank You.

There is a simulation module where you can run games between two teams as much as you want. I don't think its really meant for 1000 games but it could work. You can choose the teams, stadium and rest days but I don't think the weather. Yes, stats are supplied afterwards.

Relevant manual section is here.

I would like to add another question to this. If I wanted to sim a players career (josh Hamilton) from when they came into the league is that possible? I guess it would be a "what if" type sim.
