Tired Players

Gewehr · 11-10-2013, 06:09 PM

Hi everyone, seven hours into my first game. First question:

I'm sustaining a lot of injuries on my team. If I see a guy who is tired (yellow bar) how should I handle it? I don't have the personnel to take him out for a few days, my settings for replacement is the default "if regular is tired" but he keeps playing. I am on full AI manager control for the individual games, I auto-play week by week with all the stops in for every event. Should I micro-manage more, or am I missing something?

I highly recommend the use of 7-day lineups if your simming a week at a time. It gives you much greater control without really adding a lot of work. You'll control the day 2 day lineups and the AI will coach the games. This will allow you to give guys a day off here and there...especially in a streach where you may play games on several days in a row. some guys simply can't play 162 games a year. I usually like to give a guy a day off every 5th day or so unless he has shown he's capable of playing more often
