Warrior General Games

You may notice that in some desktop - based sports text sims that when editing depth chart, You can have some players play more minutes, and some players play less minutes.

I know GLB's Depth Chart and the Tactics section do this a good job of dividing time, but would it be possible to let us input a minimum # of minutes a certain player on our DC has to play each game?

Like for instance,

One team has Player A as Starter for QB, Player B as their 2nd String QB, and Player C as their 3rd String QB.

What I want is to be able to force a minimum number of minutes that Player A has to play, for instance, out of 60 minutes, I would input (for example) 35 minutes , I would want player B to play 20 minutes, and Player C to play 5 minutes per game. Of course the exact minutes I input may not work sometimes but it would give the sim a general idea of how I want our roster to line up.

It's a rough Concept but a good idea to be brought up.

Time of possession in a game commonly swings between 20 and 40 minutes - so a per minute system would never work. Well, it would work, but not in any useful way.

Though the current method of doing advanced energy/substitutions is far from perfect - you can somewhat effectively do it now if you know how many plays it takes for your starter to a certain energy level and then use the advanced energy (under team tactics) to set the values so the starter goes for however long, and then the next guy, and so on.

-1 this can be accomplished with the AI and depth chart for the most part. it just takes a little effort to get it done.

-1 We have Energy Tactic Settings.
