← Back to Real lineups / starting pitchers

Hi Harlin,
I saw the note below in the changelog, but can you confirm where the real lineups and SPs can be turned on? Can it be done if you've already started a season? I checked the lineup tab in my season dashboard, but I may have missed something. Or are the real lineups automatically loaded as you go. Thanks for your help.

Turning on Real lineups and starting pitchers for a full season now turns injuries off, so real lineups and rotations stay intact. Seasons already using real lineups have injuries turned off too, and anyone who was hurt is back on the field.

Thanks for asking! Real lineups and starting pitchers is a checkbox on the Season Options page, the second step when you start a new full season, right after you pick your team. Check "Real lineups and starting pitchers" before you click Start Season. It works for AL and NL seasons, and checking it turns injuries off for that season.

It isn't loaded automatically, and right now it can't be turned on for a season you've already started. That's why you didn't see it on the Lineup tab. To use it, start a new season with the box checked. Once it's on, each game starts the lineup and pitcher each team really used that day, and your own team's pregame lineup starts out as the real one, which you can still change.

Hope that helps!

The code confirms the setting only appears in new-season setup (options.html:55), and no existing issue covers turning it on for a season already in progress. If you want that, I can file an issue for it. Be forwarned, it is taking a while for me to work through what's getting to be a huge backlog of issues/requests.
