[Robby The Z]

(I asked this on the '19 board the other day but it's pretty quiet over there and I think the answers will be the same for this version of the game).

So I bought this game more than a year ago but really only started playing in the last 6 weeks (gee, I wonder why I had the time to start).

Bottom line is I LOVE IT. Am totally addicted. I normally start with a game by diving in but I'm trying to spend time with the tutorials and on here. Still, I have three questions including two about the progression of historical leagues. Hopefully knowledgeable players still check this board.

1. I l made a couple of experimental edits to players just to see how it works. Have learned a good bit about ratings this way but I don't want to keep playing with altered player. . My questions is, If I have the historical setting to "Recalc player settings based on real stats after each year" - will those edits I made be done away with during the offseason?

2. ON the same subject, forgetting about edits, does that "Recalc" setting mean essentially the player ratings will totally be reset for , in my case, the 1976 season compared to my season 2 of 1975?

3. I can't find it now but I thought I've seen something about an OOTP player Development system. Is that an alternative to recalculating each season or can it be both/and? If the latter, how does that work exactly?

Apologies if these should have been easy for me to find out - but any help is appreciated. Plus I'd love to get into some dialogue with veteran players as I had no idea this game was so much fun.
