Went to sleep last night and got to thinking. What if you set a number for adjust hitters/pitchers but used 0 for weaken hitters and pitchers.

Got up this morning and before I had to head off to work, I created 1942. Used 110 for adjust hitters 17 for adjust pitchers. Entered 0 for weaken for both pitchers and hitters. Fast simmed 42 and advanced to opening day 1943. By appearances alone, it worked. Greenberg was still a middle of the order 5 star. Same could be said for Williams and DiMaggio. Feller was a #1 starter. Simmed 43 and while at home, I figured something was wrong. Then I looked at the actual stats for 43 and 44 and realized maybe it worked better than I thought. As could only be expected with so many players missing, stat output was down a lot in those years. Thinking it might be better to use 1941, 42 or 1946 for the war years modifiers.
