I dont quite understand why my players are +/- 8 in ratings yet I spend #1 in scouting. Can someone explain this one?
We'll be sure to look into it!Quote:

Send me your game file, because I haven't been experiencing this problem yet. How much money are you putting in??Quote:

Did you spend more money at all? During those years the game may base the scouting expenses off of a certain number, even though the league average might be lower. So essentially you could still be number 1 overall for scouting expenses, but that is because other NFL team's expenses for scouting may be really low and the year has a certain number that you need to reach for the attributes to be showing closer to +/-1.Quote:

After adding another $15,000 I began to see +/-1 ratings instead on the scouting reports. Basically, you just need to add more money. If you add more money and you don't see a change at all, then that is definitely a bug, but for right now the average that other computer teams spend may be a bit low. I'll look more into it, but if you find that you are spending way too much money during a certain year; certainly let me know!
This will be fixed for version 11.01! We have revised the expenses in the older years to adhere to this problem.Quote:

Is it just draft talent that you want to water down? If so, look for an updated text file for drafted players from me around Monday. I'm working on fixing the draft talent as we speak!Quote:

Not sure how you would want to go about adjusting this.. whether by making some change to how the scale is graded or by a "watering down" of their peaks or advancement. I'd think the latter would be good, and perhaps even improve the sim results a bit, but it could end up being a juggling act for a couple patches until it gets tweaked back & forth into the sweet spot.
