I can't get .odb to work for me, not sure why - but noticed (from hex editing it) that there were references to the team I removed.
I'm guessing the game starts from .odb, then uses .csv after that? Or some parts of the .odb are altered when .csv changes or something.
I don't know where I'm going wrong, but I am somewhere - all the players on my team disappear after the first year - I can see them, they're still taking a salary, but they aren't on my pitching/lineup/transaction screens.

I could be wrong but I think you can download the Lahman database for free from their site and then use the master.csv file instead of having to use the odb file from the sim. There is a place that allows you to use a master.csv file rather than a odb file. I am fairly sure you can then edit that file. What changes that may make to the sim, I am not sure. Maybe some one else can answer that. I am fairly new here but seems as though one could do that ok.
Anyway, good luck with it. I like the idea you have though. I would like to have kept Brooklyn in Brooklyn. I would have liked to see the Braves stay in Milwaukee too, or Boston....just me I guess.
