well i think if your loaning a good young player that is worth 6 million.

its actully hurting the team rather than helping because he isnt developing

id like to see a base reqirement… an auto return and fine for the loaning in team …. that way the team that has loaned the player out doenst have to pay out a shit load just to get the player back.

or raise the cost of the loan where i make income untill he is played

Maybe the amount of required matches could be related to the wage percentage. For instance, if I loan your player paying 100% of the wage I’m not required to use him, but if I pay 50% I must play him at least in half the matches. The numbers don’t need to be these, just giving an idea :)

Cheers!

what about loaning out ur player and the team that takes him isnt playing him at all

there for wasting him and hes no developing,

can there be a clause where they have to play him once every 40 turns at least

cos ive got players loaned out to siena and that jerk isnt playing them…and if i call him back i lose 1.4 million

thats bull

Player positions on match report now reflect the teams starting line-up. There was some misunderstanding when the formation and players position displayed didn’t match due to individual tactics or strategies. For example, before this change, if a team’s formation was 4-4-2 but at the 45th minute there was a strategy to move a defender to the attack the players position in the match report would make you think the formation used was 3-4-3.

2. Passing frequency

In fact majority of my players have good dribbling skill so i am gonna set is to rare and test if my team gets better success with this setting. If not i will complain :p

Thanks for the feedback

1. Topic: General
2. Passing frequency

You got it right amacb, if you set it to rare your players tend to dribble instead of passing, but it affect all your players, not only midfielders. Wingers (any player on most left or most right positions) have passing frequency set one level below your team, in other words if you set your passing frequency to normal your wingers setting will be rare.

The way I see things, rare passing frequency should be more effective if your players have good dribbling skills or your opponents have poor tackling skills. In the other hand frequent passing could make you reach the opponent goal quicker but there is always a risk your passes are intercepted.

Hope this helps :)

1. Topic: General
2. Passing frequency

Hello,

I am wondering how passing frequency affects the way your team play. For instance if you set it to “rare” do your players tend to dribble the ball more often instead of passing?Does it affects the way your whole team plays or just your midfield? What are the advantages of setting to often vs. rare and visa-versa? Can we have some insight on this please.

Thanks in advance

2. Formation Creation

Most of the time i can’t do nothing in the formation because it isn’t possible to drag and drop… and the players on the field aren’t in bold.
Logging off and in, restarting or changing computer, net or browser, doesn’t fix it.
Help please, i’m losing games and i can’t do anything about it.

I would think it’s not available only if the player was released to free transfer before player history was added to the game. If that’s not the case please let us know so we can fix it.

i would prefer a real date. but if the change means a big investment of programming time, put it on the bottom of the enhancement list.

why is there not always the date when the former team released a player to the free transfer?

2. Earth date ?

I think a date is not a good idea. You have 6 turns a day in fastticker so how you going to do that. It won’t be clear anymore.
I like it to see in which season I am. I don’t think S15 T23 is a problem. There are other more important thing to be done.

cheers

2. Earth date ?

We were not planning to change that, it would require some important design changes…is it worth? :-)

Now serious, if the season/turn system bothers you or other users we can certainly consider changing that, but it will require a good amount of programming time.

Cheers!

ahh ok

At least 30 minutes…in the future the improvement will depend on how much time the player effectively played.

1. Topic: General
2. Youth?

hey Gabriel, thanks for the reply!

For player skills – is there a necessary time limit a player must play in a game? Or the more time he plays..the better his improvement?

thanks for the schedule help..a little confusing right now, but I’ll get used to it :)

1. Topic: General
2. Youth?

Hi JadaX, welcome to RubySoccer!

All teams have 6 youth players whose age is somewhere between 16 and 18. At some point you’ll receive a message saying one of your youth players is asking for a contract. After that you’ll have an option to either offer a contract or release the player. If you do not hire the player in 12 turns after receiving the message he’ll leave your club. After hiring or releasing a youth a new 16 years old youth will replace him.

For now players only improve by playing matches, no matter whether official or friendly. The more experienced a player more matches will be necessary until he improves. When he does, the number of skill points he will earn depend on your coaching level. Check our game help for more details on that.

Our season has 144 turns and our week is 3-turn based. League matches happen on turns 3, 6, 9, 12 and so on (some leagues start later), national cup matches on turns 7, 10, 16, 19, 25, 28 and so on and international cup matches on turns 125 , 128, 134, 137, 143 and so on. Wages, sponsorship, merchandise income, all this is paid on first “week” turn (1, 4, 7, etc). Everything else (transfers, loans, renewals, improvements) can happen on any turn.

Hope this helps.

Cheers!

Hey hi, sorry if this has been asked before — but how do youth work?

they get trained according to coaching level? How do you promote them? How do you get new youth?

Also — is there a general week schedule so I can know what happens each day?
