Would It be possible to use the database editor to manually relocate a team or add a team in a saved game? If so how would you go about doing it?

You can relocate a team but you cannot add teams or move them between leagues. To relocate a team, load the saved game in the Editor, select the club and change their city and/or name.

Make sure you backup your saved game before you make any changes.

No. What can be done, and how to do it, is described above your post

Thanks but hopefully in the future a Computer control team can be relocated if new Owner decides to move them. Also League Evolution.

Hey,
so I tried relocating some teams in the database, but as soon as the loading screen "initializes leagues" the game closes without any further comments or reports.
Any ideas?

It depends on what you mean by relocation. If you just changed the cities and names of some teams then that shouldn't be an issue. If you swapped teams between leagues then you may want to take a look at this tutorial: https://www.ehmtheblueline.com/forums/v ... 87#p233387
