Match Engine: enhanced players pace starting next season

Players used to always run when they moved, now their pace depends on the situation and mentality. If a player moves there are 3 paces (from faster to slower):
1) When with the ball or when moving towards to ball.
2) When mentality is 0
3) When moving forward and mentality is -1 or when moving back and mentality is 1

Match Engine

Some offside situations were not being considered until now: when a player shoots and the ball hits the bar or is deflected a teammate could get the ball even if he was offside at the moment of the shot.

We are improving our anti-cheat tools. Fair play is very important to us, and we are going to do our best to keep our controls enough to eliminate most of the cheaters.

It has come to my attention that I might (ooops) have forgotten to announce that loans are not cancelled anymore when the player is sold. Sorry about that.

Loan Embargo

If you let loaned players return for having missed more matches than allowed by contract you will suffer from a temporary loan embargo. The duration of the embargo depends on how many times you let that happen. It will last 15 turns in the first time, 30 turns in the second and 45 turns from the third on. During the embargo you won’t be able to loan players from other teams. The goal of this enhancement is to prevent situations where the same team keeps loaning players without using them.

It is now possible to request loan termination. If the other team agrees the player is returned in the following turn.

Beware of your players stamina! Next season the rules will be more strict affecting the overall skills of the players instead of only their recovery after running. Every 3 points below 100 stamina will reduce all skills by 1%.

The away match penalty reduction is still on discussion, so for next season we won’t reduce it for 27-28 years old player yet, we may do that for 29 (-2) and 30 (-1) years old players only. Stay tuned!

An initial press releases box is out. Still have to do some work on it, but you guys can already enjoy.

Topic: [admin_only] Improvements

To reduce the impact on the current season we’ll wait until next season to activate an enhancement for the older players rules: -2 away penalty for 27-28 years old players and -1 away penalty for 29-30 years old players.

Can now select whatever color you want (red, green or blue) for the rubysoccer theme (manager settings screen). Press Releases will be available soon.

Topic: [admin_only] Improvements

Players with 31 years old or more do not receive the -3 penalty on all skills when their team is playing as a visitor. This change was made to represent the experience acquired by older players.

A small package of improvements for your fun:

- detailed history for team and manager (BETA) – you have the option to see all player transfers in manager/team history
- uses blue template instead of red – in a near future will enable you guys to select a color
- don’t have to exit/enter dimension to change from miniature to non-miniature layout
- fix flag positions for non miniature layout
- simplify list of files to be downloaded in every screen refresh (faster load time)
- add links to some history table parts. still have more places where links could be added…
- the history sort is now smarter. it has more criteria to be able to organize events that happened in the same turn

Topic: [admin_only] Improvements

I would also like to add that you have 2 options of layout. If you go to your manager settings screen, you can remove the miniature layout and use an expanded layout version.

Topic: [admin_only] Improvements

Happy 2nd anniversary! Enjoy our new layout! Any comments, compliments, suggestions or problems please let us know.

We’d like to thank Fernando França who was responsible for 99% of RubySoccer visual transformation. It was worth the burger ;)

Cheers!
