Altering Injury Rate
Any way to lower the frequency or severity of injuries? I currently have six of my best players on the IR with long term injuries

They can be shut off entirely in the Setups/Options menu, but right now there's no way to vary the frequency or severity since we changed the injury system. We'll probably add something back in to control the frequency, at least, at some point, but no definite plans right now.

Does editing the injuries.txt file in "C:\Users\...\Documents\Out of the Park Developments\Franchise Hockey Manager 3\database" not actually change the injury severity or rarity?

Here's a list of some injured players checked one day in late february during my sim, which in my opinion is a bit excessive:
Oliver Ekman Larsson: 1-2 months, torn back TJ Brodie: 1-2 months, broken knee Justin Faulk: 1-2 months, strained MCL Elias Lindholm: indefinitely, fractured elbow Zach Werenski: indefinitely, ruptured disk Matt Calvert: indefinitely, fractured larynx Oliver Bjorkstrand: indefinitely, torn rotator cuff Alexander Barkov: 2-3 months, dislocated shoulder Mike Reilly: 1-2 months, hamstring strain Jared Spurgeon: 1-2 months, fractured thumb Nino Niederreiter: 1-2 months, bone edema Jason Pominville: 2-3 weeks, sprained UCL Chris Stewart: 2-3 weeks, sprained UCL Shea Weber: indefinitely, torn flexor tendon Josh Bailey: indefinitely, torn elbow ligament Rick Nash: 3-4 months, torn quadriceps Mika Zibanejad: 3-4 months, broken bone in elbow J.G. Pageau: 1-2 months, torn biceps Kyle Turris: 2-3 weeks, latissimus dorsi strain Mark Stone: day-to-day, latissimus dorsi strain Steven Stamkos: day-to-day, separated shoulder Andre Burakovsky: indefinitely, torn elbow ligament Stanislav Galiev: indefinitely, partially torn UCL Checking again in late March, Cody Ceci is now out 9 months with a ruptured disk, Ryan McDonough is out 9 weeks with a detached retina (ouch), Kari Lehtonen is out 7 months with a fractured Larynx (apparently after colliding with the goal), Derrick Brassard is out 8 weeks with an elbow strain, Kuznetsov is out 3 weeks with a strained Achilles tendon. |

Certainly may be.....but just looking at the injury report as of today, less than one month into the season....high-level break out.....
13 Players Out Indefinitely 16 Players out 1+ Months 2 Players Out for the Season A lot of people with day-to-day injuries And that is within first month of the season....can only imagine what an injury report would look like in Feb/march as part of the grind..... Again, maybe the severity is or isn't high, but just something to consider... |

I'm not really sure why that is, I guess we only selectively remember or notice injuries. I don't know exactly how accurate FHM3 is injury wise, I know there was a lot of discussion on this during beta, but for OOTP we put a lot of effort into getting the injuries to very closely match real life patterns, and I know the FHM team has done the same as well. That's not to say there won't ever be a need for tweaks or adjustments, but the base should be somewhat realistic at this point in time.

That's definitely true. I think the thing that's off-putting to me is that almost all of the injuries I've seen in-game are top players (which would make sense if the chances of injuries is tied to playing time). It's also weird to see so many really long term injuries, bit that's probably a guy feeling rather than a real problem.
