a patience focus is about teh Eye rating. at least for development of ratings etc... as far as relationships it might be about OBP or the walk rate.. both would make sense as well as teh eye rating itself. may or may not be more inclusive. could test it with comissioner mode on and see what happens.. e.g. reduce eye and if it changes, you know it's the cause.

as far as his relationship with players: focus is part of the equation but not the only thing. the coach's personality will be a big factor that influences his relationships.

again to learn, go play around with comissioner mode on with focus and personality and you can see who that influences relationships.

also note, it doesn't say "bad" relationship.. it says "worse".. that's a comparitive term. if the developers care about what that means, it's an important distinction. it would only mean it's a higher level, not that it's "bad" for the others. both could be above "bad" potentially due to logic of the word used.
