Fog of War Questions

[OhLookADeliMeat]

Hey y'all. First post here. Was directed to reach out here from the discord on a Fog of War question I had.

I have Fog of War enabled on my current save. Just starting year 3 of a "Totally Unknown" playthrough.

when I turn off Fog of War, I don't notice much of a difference, unless I'm looking in the wrong areas. Players still have an E in scouting and their traits and skills are still hidden. To be clear, I don't want to see all values for players but am I looking in the right spot for them with Fog of War disabled?

I'm just trying to figure out where the difference is.

Also, when I got a new job in the ECHL, all players I had previously scouted are back to an 'E' in scouting.

This is with Fog of War enabled. I understand I'm at a new team and that the new scouting team I have could have different grades for players I had previously scouted, but it seems weird that I wouldn't carry over prior knowledge about a player.

If my new scouting team disagrees with the scouting grade on the player then I could see the grades changing and values, but I think its weird that the player is completely unknown to me.

Also found it strange that my watch list completely clears. Again, I understand its a new league and team and I might not be looking for the same players. But I feel like a watch list should almost be a living list through different teams.

I also think its strange that there were 0 players scouted when I got to my new team. Almost as if their scouting team has been doing nothing until I was hired. Feels like there should be some players around the league/free agency with some scouting to them when I arrive on site to a new team.

The last 3 paragraphs, is that due to Fog of War being on? Or would that happen regardless on a new team?

Honestly, I'm fine with how the game is playing the scouting right now, I just want to know if Fog of War changes or manipulates any of those things. That way I can at least have some answers.

Thanks all!
