I made the stupid mistake of enabling challenge mode when creating my Tropical League, so now I’m in 2071 and stuck with challenge mode on. This can get really annoying.

I have two theories on how to get rid of challenge mode:
1. Delete the challenge.dat in the saved games folder. This could work, however it is a long shot and unlikely to work.
2. Create a new league, and copy over ALL of the data in the saved games folder excluding the challenge.dat. Make sure to start the new league without challenge mode.

Since I won’t be at my computer until late this evening, I won’t be able to test these theories until later. In the meantime, if anyone would like to attempt one or both of these, that would be great. Thanks!
Deleting the dat file results in a corrupt save and the game won't proceed/load. It gives an error regarding the world.dat file, so there must be a bit set in there that necessitates Challenge mode.
