I am lost at where the game is finding the teams. I thought it was the team csv file and the era ballparks for the ballpark info. Well at first i had all the teams i had setup for 1871.
But the Boston Red Stockings would show up as a expansion team in 1872 when they were not an expansion team. They were in the same league with the same abbreviations as 1871.
Also the game now imports 1871 with teams i did not assign to that year. I checked other years and its doing the same thing. Could a file have been corrupted? I would think it wouldnt load the database then.
Can you not move teams to another league and have an odd number of expansion teams? I tried with 5 expanion teams and the whole league showed up as expansion teams in the expansion draft.
