I use custom/modified injuries.txt and historical_transactions.odb files. Periodically - I'm guessing with each new build? - these files are overwritten by the delivered OOTP18 versions of these files. Sometimes I catch this, sometimes I don't. Not sure if it's relevant, but I have OOTP thru Steam.

Best I can tell, this is the only process I know of:

1. Launch OOTP18
2. Check the ...Out of the Park Developments\OOTP Baseball 18\database and ...Out of the Park Developments\OOTP Baseball 18\stats folders to see if my custom files are still in effect, and if not...
3. Quit OOTP18
4. Go through the various steps to copy, rename, etc., the files in question
5. Launch OOTP18
6. Check again to make sure the custom files are in play

Not only is the above a bit of a pain, but it's entirely dependent upon remembering step #2, rather than just diving in and playing OOTP.

Anyone have any better ideas or workarounds?
