Max pitch count override for no-hitters Topic

Also posted in Suggestions, but no one ever reads those so:
Okay, so the SIM did it again. See: https://www.whatifsports.com/hbd/Pages/Popups/Boxscore.aspx?gid=102614560&tab=box&mode=classic . One out to go and the SIM yanks a pitcher with a no-no. This continues to be one of the most annoying and unrealistic problems in this game. I asked support about this in the past and got a rather unhelpful answer that I could adjust my pitchers' max pitch count setting. This is not the issue. We cannot predict when a pitcher is going to throw a no-hitter nor can we possibly know how many pitches he'll throw doing so. Instead, in the 'edit player settings' page, we should have a box allowing or not allowing (at user discretion) an override of the max pitch count setting in the event of a no-hitter in progress? It's not difficult code to write and can be made easier by automatically pulling the pitcher once a hit is allowed.

Agreed. 100% but will probably never happen.

Edit: I’m having a rough year with one of my teams. Once I have hit my MWR I’ll jack my pitchers max pitch count up as high as it will go but keep the target pitch count the same and keep their pull at 3-4. I’ll let everyone know what happens.
