Fully customizable development/aging curves
Suggestion: Allow the user to define the ages at which players peak, in addition to the speed of the development/decline phases.
Reason: Current system allows users to define rates of development/decline only. This improvement would allow for more options in the shape of a development curve (e.g., have players peak early but decline at a slow rate afterwards, or have a gradual buildup to a peak in the early 30s and a quick decline afterwards). This would be a huge improvement for historical leagues, since aging patterns have changed over time. For example, most great early pitchers (Al Spalding, Amos Rusie, Tommy Bond) emerged as stars almost instantly, peaked in their early 20s and were washed up by their mid-20s; in a modern game, pitchers peak far later and more gradually.
