OOTP Developments Forums - View Single Post - What AI Evaluation Settings are you using?

I tried something a little different in 14.

For a long time I was using 50/25/15/10.

I wanted to go to something more stat heavy, but was running into issues where I was getting weird results in the beginning of the season. Probably as with the poster above me, changing eval during the season would be ideal, but for simplicity I wanted a solution that I didn't have to tinker with constantly.

So I ended up doing 33/25/25/17

I have used it for a few seasons and I'm pretty happy with the results. By treating current and last season equally I don't get weird shifts when the season turns over. I also tried going lower on ratings like 20 or 25 and feel like the AI does not treat rookies and prospects as I would. In the end I think its pretty balanced, I give 1/3 to rating and 2/3 to stats.

I have trade on hard also, and favor prospects, although I'm thinking of trying out neutral. I find I can never make realistic trades since it seems like the AI will never trade a prospect for even a good quality vet that fills one of their needs even with these AI eval settings.
