Well, we'll see how well this works. This could resolve one of the handful of frustrating, unresolved issues in my queue.

Can't you just set the league to not allow foreign players on teams? I thought that worked in 2006.

Yes, you can do that, but does it stop them from scouting foreign countries or not?

This is great news. In my fictional league I had limited myself to finding 1 hidden player per season, in an attempt to not have an advantage over the AI.

And how will it work since the AI sees the real ratings and has no use for their scouts? will this the be the one occasion the quality of their scouts affect the players they find?

It does not. What stops them from scouting other nations is not selecting the generate and maintain hidden players option when setting up the universe, which is in 2006.

I wouldn't want my tasklist public.

These are all good questions, now that the issue itself appears to have been resolved.
