One thing that really bugs me about Random (unless I am missing something) you can’t retire players (or have them miss seasons) based on their real life age instead of the real life year. You have to play with retire according to history and miss seasons according to history unchecked with development on. This allows players that only played 2 or 3 years in real life play 15 or more years in a random league.
I don’t like seeing a bunch of players end up in my HOF that only played 3 or 4 years IRL. Anyone know of a workaround?
I am thinking about manually retiring these players at age 30 at the end of each season but that sounds like a lot of work. It sure would be nice if retire according to history worked based on age of player instead of real life year.
