seasideda · 08-13-2023, 10:33 AM

Im starting an historical replay in 1974, and will Manage and GM the Redsox. Although Im ok with players being traded and enable trades (on low) I also want other teams to keep superstar players that played their entire careers on the same team as in real life. Im also playing with financials turned on. I don't want to use "historical transactions" because I like the idea of having salaries and signing extensions...(So fisk doesn't become a free agent in 1980)

Since I can sign my own Red Sox players, the only way I can think to do this is to edit the other team players' contracts and salaries in the player editor, which I don't want the AI to trade. For example, Mike Schmidt I would edit his contract to 15 years adding a no-trade option.
Will this work? Also, I notice that even though I edited his contract to "no trade", he is willing to be traded to certain teams. How do I prevent that?
