I started a 30 team franchise a while back where by I set everything to manual except for scouting and the Injury Management. In the franchise settings I remember putting 'Force Trades' and 'Ignore Budgets' to 'ON'.
I've played through the entire month of April now, with the first few games of May already played and decided having to go through every teams rosters after every advanced day to make necessary promotions and demotions was rather time consuming for me. So I've now put everything to Auto for the CPU teams (CPU teams have their own association file settings) except for contracts. However if I go to a CPU team everything still says manual except for scouting, but the CPU is doing its own roster changes (which is what I want).
With the trading though, none of the CPU teams have updated their trading block or what positions they are seeking. I'm wondering if CPU trades is still off? I know if you have that 'CPU CONTROL ROSTER' setting on before you start the franchise then CPU trading gets turned off but I'm not sure what I decided on that, is there anyway to tell?
I do have my trade frequency slider setting at '1' for now since I'm in May so maybe I should give it a while and see if anything happens by the time I get towards end of June. I would of thought the CPU would of updated their trading block by now which makes it a little confusing as to whether its on manual or Auto.
Cheers.
