force players to retire

Postby TGsoGood on Mon Jan 13, 2014 8:40 am

If anyone has ideas about how to force players to retire at a certain age or
after 4 years please respond. I would like to figure this out for highscool and
college associatons. I have tried but have only been able to force players to
retire due to age being mid 30's or higher
.

there is no good way to do it in-game without manually taking them out with RED MC. Starting at age 30, or so, isn't a good way to do it either, since the players will still retire randomly.
Opinions are my own.

They're more likely to retire if you make them 42 right?

RED MC. Players tab. There is some column in the Status section (near TeamIDs), named Contract Thoughts or something like this. There is a value for that (see Fields&Values tutorial), which will make the player retire at the end of the season.
But no, you can't make him retire after 4 years, only manually edit him during the season, which is going to be his last one.

Apparently there is a way to make the process semi-autoamtic. Set Contract Lengths to certain values (e. g. 4 for every player, but can be any amount of seasons, you want this or that player to play), so the game will decrease them by 1 each season. Then create a small TURK script, which will set proper Contract Thoughts value, if the condition "Contract Length = 1" is true. And the next thing you will need to do is simply run the script once a season. The only potential problem here is some team can waive a player mid-season. But you can also add something like "if BirthYear < some_value then set Contract Thoughts to retirement" into your TURK script (will require to manually increase some_value by 1 each season).
Or you can use YearsPro in the same way. Since it automatically increases by 1 each year, set 0 to everyone (or set 1 to some players, 2 for another bunch of players, etc.), then make a TURK script look something like "if YearsPro = 4 then retire".
The total amount of "-1"s among all StatY fields can also identify how many years the player has played and be used to auto-retire them.

I hope, you get the general idea.

That is a good idea but I was looking for a way to do this in roster so that Rosters could be released for NCAA or HS and this would happen automaticly. I Do Like the idea about changing contract thoughts so that a player retires at the end of the season.

I appreciate everyone's help

I would suggest editing the end peak age as younger than what they are and making them 45

Now that RED MC is free I just might have to relearn how to make the TURK scripts so that we can have a real option for college hoops. Now that RED MC is free everyone can load association files and run the script to make the appropriate players auto retire.
