Contract editing issue...

If someone would be willing to try this for OSFM and Hybrid it'd be much appreciated.

There's a post where tabernes or someone modified certain contracts to simulate this. It should be percentage based, or at least relatively comparable, so......for example, Ryan Howard's ratings are lower and the system gives him a somewhat lower salary than actual, I'll increase these to at least be the among the highest on his individual team so that it's at least comparatively a burden.

I started a Cardinals franchise and simmed to the offseason to see how everything worked. No matter what type of contract I offered to Jason Heyward, I would get a message the next day that the Cardinals could not afford his contract and the offer was withdrawn. I had 60 million in available budget, and even offering 1 year at 8 million would say I couldn't afford him. I don't do 30 team control, so it looks like I won't be unable to re-sign him after this year.

It's the steps needed to complete the offseason. http://www.operationsports.com/forum...offseason.html

I never knew that about the 40 man. Answers a few questions I've had in the past too.

I've had that same thing "you cannot offer a contract to him", when I have twice as much budget room as his yearly salary would be, taking everything into account.

Thank you. This is the first time I've bought the game since 2012, so a lot of things have changed since then.

Could you explain how this would be a problem? All the contracts using my idea would add up to the in game budget right? So the CPU signing at the in game formula would still fit in the budget, since the budget with the edited contracts would be the same as the original in game one, just that some players have relatively higher contracts and some have relatively lower ones than the original SCEA ones.

The problem is the ratio would not continue past year one. Let's say you give a player a 10 million contract. In the offseason that same player would be signed by the cpu at 6 million.

That affects the trade logic because the system sees the 10 million player as a 6 million player and the value is greatly reduced.

They should just let you edit each teams budget. The 2k series did this for one year.
