Slight Adjustments, Big Failures

I was checking out the crops of players coming into the BYDL and noticed that many were from the New England area rather than just Masachusetts. So, I thought I would help generate the new crop being the first "homegrown" group of freshman. Therefore, I changed the BYDL region from New England to Massachusetts. Looking at the lineups the day before the new crop would enter, I noticed that suddenly every team was thin. Looking at the transactions, each team but about 10 or so players and most of those 14-16 year olds showed as retired from baseball. WTF?

Looking more closely, my adjustment in region somehow told the AI that no one born outside of Massachusetts was allowed to play in the league and thus every person born in Connecticut, Rhode Island, etc., was cut and retired. Ouch!

I have thus spent a good amount of time going through and adding back each of those players to their teams after switching the region back to Massachusetts. They no longer show their class (So, Jr, Sr), though, so I have no idea how that will go for draft eligibility later.

Anyway, beware of slight adjustments! I want to adjust some statistical outputs, but I am afraid I will break leagues now. Maybe I will sit out those adjustments until I have time to test ramifications of adjustments made.
