Hello all, long time lurker, first time modder here. First off, all thanks to the folks working on The Big Mod -- it really adds a lot of depth and flavor to the game and is much appreciated.

I'm thinking of creating a fictional NCAA setup with more geographically focused conferences, which would hopefully be smaller and allow for more balanced in-conference scheduling. Hoping someone knows the answer to this, Is the number of conferences in the game hard-coded at 33 (including independents) or is there flexibility there? Thanks for your help!

I'm not sure what the limits are but it's not hard coded to 33. I have created 28 and 30 conference leagues. Never tried going higher numbers but it's definitely not fixed at 33.

Thanks! I'll mess around with this and let folks know if I bump into any limits.
