They do develop while they are in the complex. How much depends on how much you are spending on player development. Your players taking steps backward are most likely just your scout getting a more accurate read on the players abilities over time.

As for when you move them up, that's really a judgement call. Generally I move them up to rookie ball the season after they turn 18 (so draft age essentially) unless I am pretty certain that they are highly advanced at 17. I would never send a 16 year old to rookie ball, and I think 19 or more is waiting to loo long to get them game action. The game action is more so I have a better picture of who they are as opposed to just the scout's opinion.
