player development report

da commish · 08-28-2013, 03:02 PM

I really like the player development report and spend a bunch of time reviewing it each time it comes out. One suggestion for the report format - highlight "improve" and "improves" in bold green and "drop" and "drops" in bold red to make them stand out more. The numbers are already highlighted in bold colors but I think this would make the changes more evident, rather than just reading the change from one rating to another.

I find myself agreeing with this suggestion both in detail and in general. I know the information is there on the Player Development Report but in its current format, it's hard to pick out what is really relevant and important. I keep visualizing some sort of graph system but that would probably be way too busy.

The PDR is a great idea and I want to get into it but have not yet because I don't understand the options (what players, how often, when to delete) and because it's too much minor detail on too many minor players. I hope to see improvements.

A vague post, I know.

Its definitely something which I can only imagine will be improved and expanded for the next version. Couldnt live without it now!

I use it now and make a list of those who are positively affected, negatively affected and those who are a wash and its a great addition as far as I can see. I think it would be a mistake not to at least glance at it.

I prefer the format of the PDR in OOTP13. It was a chart, and it was easy to look down the chart for the largest green numbers (big improvements) or red numbers (big declines).

Plus, why is it that the report is always giving the batting ratings improvement or decline? Even for my pitchers, my report is only giving me changes to their contact, power and eye ratings. Is this a bug?

In general, is there a way to switch back to the OOTP13-style PDR?
