I then began to look at players who their was a positional log jam in the minors and did not get playing time and I noticed they still seemed to develop based on the whims of the engine.
Granted your better prospects are still going to get playing time no matter what.
I did do some testing where I intentionally made top prospects not be able to play in games and they still seemed to develop as if they were playing.
If it's in the manual then I believe the code is there. I just have yet to see that the impact is large enough to matter.
