Basically, you are setting a general rule and then creating an exception (the Override) to cover the one player.
If you are setting the team to be aggressive, it is redundant to set any individual player strategies to be aggressive (IMHO)
I think the options for Adjust to Team vs Override are there to make it easier to change things later in the season and/or to adjust to different ballparks, perhaps.
I think it's a good idea to use the individual player strategy sliders sparingly, because you can easily get confused or forgetful about how everything is supposed to work (at least I can  ). |
Thanks Steve, so to be completly clear the player stratergies do not take any effect unless they are set to override and if I
only want to overide the base stealing (because a player has a great rating) I need to set all of the other (player) sliders to match the team strategy?, otherwise my general tendancy to be aggressive for baserunning will be "reset" to "normal" for this player?
I think this makes sence ... but I have different team sliders for different times. e.g. I'm generaly quite conservitive (with the exception of base running), but if I'm 4+ runs up in the 9th I take more risks in my strategy with base running, stealing, bunting etc (I'm happy to take an out for an extra run lead). So if I set the above player's (who is good at stealing) stratergy to match the overall conservative strategy of my team with the exception of stealing, does this mean that these settings will overide my more risky team settings late on in the game and that that this player will always play with caution?
This is what doesn't really make sense to me.
