no draft

Problem:
This is my own fault, but the game should still handle the situation properly. I inadvertently hit the 'yes' button on importing rookies from the database when I definately do not want them. So, I left the path to the database blank and selected no to 'assign to original team'. Result, no draft this season.

Answer: add a cancel button to the box so I can cancel out of the 'import from database' if my brain mis-fires and I press yes. The cancel should take me straight back to the 'import rookies from database' question.

bettter answer:
stop asking the question. put the option in the league setup instead. this is definately league based, and 99% of the time the question will always be answered the same way every year, so thats where it goes.

I think this only will come up in a historical league - I don't recall being asked this in my fictional leagues at least. Still a good suggestion though to put this kind of option in the league setup page.

It is a fictional league, started in the year 1900.

edit:

This league was started in OOTP3. I cant remember whether OOTP3 asked me the question or not. I imported the league in middle of 1936. It has asked the question every year since. The year is now 1941.
