I'm almost positive, but you can't change the injury factor once you create a league. Its only configurable at the very start of a new file. As for going in and removing injuries, we would need to look into this as we would need to either do everyone or nobody.

[Dennis]

Okay then it’s different to offline leagues. There you can adjust it at any point of the season.

I would be in favor of a delay today if this is possible. I know there's at least 11 East teams with some type of injury and we only have 4 more "practice" sims. This is why I voted for 10. I don't get why you'd wanna lose games that count figuring things out but we voted on it so let's make these 5 count lol

[Myles]

We can drop injury percentage to 0% at any time, so we can make sure to do that for the rest of the preseason sims. As for existing injuries, it doesn't appear that editing the injuries in the database and then importing the database has any effect. I tried multiple times to erase current injuries and could not find a way to do it.

Sad story for skal. But hey might save the testing for the rest of the league ...

Sorry but hey better than nothing. Plus you can test out running some other guys as your #1 option. You've got a nice big 3.

Skal was shooting 36% on only 8 shots, not sure I have haha. But we will see.

Stop trying to convince us he's any good Dennis. We all know Skal is trash

Jon, Myles ... are you planning to include past season's stats when you release the regular season file? If not, I can help there, as I don't think it's much different the transfer from 3 to 19 than from 1 to 18. I could do it over the weekend.

I didn't know where to put this but it made me laugh haha. Did you guys put this in or is this the game's doing?

Are you referring to like every player’s historical stats and stuff like that?

That’s the game’s doing haha

Haha, that's brilliant. I've said it on the forums and the game even says it now

It may be saying the same for every team just changing the player.

Just noticed there's a Dunk-Rate and a RA-Rate. Dunk Rate means how often a players does dunk, anyone an idea what RA-Rate means exactly? So far it seems in my offline tests, that it has a huge impact.

RA_Rate = % of shots taken in the paint that are taken in the Restricted Area
Dunk_Rate = % of shots taken in the Restricted Area that are dunks

Example: Player has RA_Rate of 30. That means if the Player takes 100 shots in the paint, ~30 of them will come inside the Restricted Area. If that same player has a Dunk_Rate of 33, that means of those ~30 shots inside the Restricted Area, ~10 of them will be dunk attempts.

Okay, because I comared the numbers of the class with a random created file and RA_RATE was mostly above 50 while of the rooks barely a player was above 40. Are we sure it's not way too low for the rooks?

[Myles]

We’re sure

[Dennis]

Nice! I’m wondering why results between files are so way different. It’s crazy!
