Essential improvements

Disable league limitation

Edit configuration file
Simulation of more leagues than conceived by developers may cause the game to crash due to limit of using only 2 GB of RAM. Use the 4GB Patch on game for utilizing more RAM.
If a new game is started with simulation of absolutely all leagues in the game (including reserve ones), each individual save file will be 300+ MB in size.
  1. Open <path-to-game>\user.ini with a text editor.
  2. Add IGNORE_LEAGUE_LIMITATION=1 to the very end of the file.
  3. Save the changes.
