    als replied to a thread Draft Strategy in Football Mogul: General Discussion
    Agree. To a degree teams do draft differently since it appears that need is also factored into the AI draft choices. I have tested this by running the draft. Restarting the game. Trading players with computer teams for player in positions the computer team drafted and rerunning the draft. The AI in many cases will change their draft selection. Because teams do draft by need, it is somewhat a trial and error process to get a draft strategy that "works" reasonably well. I am still tweaking...

    als replied to a thread Sadly, I Wait... in Football Mogul: Suggestions and AI
    Actually, Clay does read this section of the forum. Just not regularly. He does regularly read the Bugs section. I was directly contacted by Clay about the issues I raised. He has been addressing the issues but it goes slowly. It is a one-man shop supporting two products and BBM is the money product. One issue that he is currently working on is the overly-high win rate by poor teams.

    Yes, you can copy and paste over the existing values. I would suggest making a copy of the DraftStrategy.txt file first so that you can return to the default values should you desire to do so. When you make your own adjustments to the strategy, don't change the number following the position name. Only change the numbers that come before the comma. * You are correct. There should be a 6 following "Guard".

    als started a thread Stats Issues YAC and Yards per Catch in Football Mogul: Bug Reports
    1) According to the NFL: traditionally YAC is measured by taking the difference between the yards gained and the air yards of a completed pass. This means that catching the ball 5 yards behind the LOS and advancing to 5 yards beyond the LOS is 5 yards of YAC - not 10. It is also*5 yards gained for the QB (air yards = 0). In the current version of FB Mogul, RBs and FBs often have YAC > yards per catch - which is not possible given the definition of YAC. 2) The calculation of yard per...

    In the Input directory, the DraftStrategy.txt file determines the draft strategy of all teams. The default strategy does not reflect NFL drafting very well. There are good reasons for this. Teams draft using different strategies. Some go for measurables, others for on-field performance and others by combine/workout sessions (or a combo of all of these). Teams also differ in drafting based upon need, best available, and/or a hope and a prayer (recently, think Trey Lance and possibly Malik Willis...
