Right now we're into the 4th round of the GUBA draft. It's set for 7 rounds, but I believe we have 20 in OOTP -- so we can reconfigure to 20 in the OOTPOU and autodraft after Rd7, and then import that and all will be well?
Unfortunately, it isn't quite so easy... This is what you would need to do:

- After completion of the draft of 7 rounds, manually edit the OOTPOU/draft/<year>/<league>/picks.txt file and add in the 13 rounds... I don't think you want to add them in by hand in the UI. Should be obvious how to do this and pretty simple by looking at the file
- Set all the teams to auto-pick (manually editing the preferences.txt file is fastest here)
- Auto the next pick, and the rest of the draft should auto
- Once this is done, you need to convert the picks.txt file into the format of the draft.csv file. This will be a little bit of a pain.

BTW, this is all assuming that import even works in OOTP... I never really tested it in beta once I saw how it was implemented.

There's a chance I could look into throwing something together for this this weekend. Hold off on doing anything, maybe I can muster up some time to do this in OU.

I'll try to generate draft history after the draft is done.
History gets generated for all years prior to the current one. No need to wait. This year's draft will be loaded into the history when you run Generate History the following year.
