ok so that breakdown would probably be 5000k each for both ATP & WTA & then whatever for juniors? I'm looking at both Inis trying to get a grasp

ATP

Code: Select all

[WT_Static]
MaxPlayer   =   4688
MaxActivePlayer   =   1800
NbPureJunior   =   240
FreePlayerSlots   =   200
FirstYear   =   1973
LastYear   =   2024

WTA (Side note; I wished this could start in 1973 as well to match the guys)

Code: Select all

[WT_Static]
MaxPlayer   =   4020
MaxActivePlayer   =   1800
NbPureJunior   =   240
FreePlayerSlots   =   200
FirstYear   =   1983
LastYear   =   2024

& anyone who retires are basically Deadwood (No Pun intended) even if someone debuts?

Also I've learned about the Generated Juniors, is there any way I can edit those to make them more accurate to real players or reduce NbPureJunior count to allow more real players to enter that aren't in the playerbase?

1) You can have 32000 players in the player base, but then you won't be able to play in fictional years.

2) I don't understand "even if someone debuts". Players who have retired will come back the next year if you add RankPerYear for them.

3) The PureJunior are needed to fill the Junior draws. You can't edit them.

1) Fictional years like beyond 2026? but knowing me if I started in 1973 & how meticulous I am with simming, I probably will never even make it to the new millennium in the game LOL)

2) when someone debuts I mean like when you enter the years in world tour where someone on the ini makes their debut as a junior, I know in 1973 McEnroe is a Junior (he's born in 59 so he's 13 at this time) & he doesn't go pro until 1976 as per his FirstYear.

I know about RankPerYear but once they get to the end of that like in 1973 Frank Falderbaum only played that year he only has the 1 Rank on his name, I'm guessing he's a 1 & done & has to be replaced by someone coming in as a junior like Yannick Noah possibly was one who was a junior for 1974 (as Yannick is born in 60) 3 years before Yannick goes pro in 77.

3) so Unfortunately I can't drop that number down to increase more players to the base

Also I know I mentioned about the WTA starting in 1983, why is that the starting year as opposed to being 73 like the mens are? I know a few were playing in 73 like Evert & Navratilova. I can see the max is 4020 for WTA's ini vs 4688 for the men, looks like there's room for more.

[manutoo]

1) yes

2) so yes, if a player plays 1 year or 40, it still counts for 1 in the 32'000 limit.

3) There's no archive before 1983. You can manually create the required RankPerYear and players if you're super motivated, though.

I know with WTA Rankings The first I really found was 1975, I know Bille Jean King started the WTA in 1973, 1974 was the first year of rankings with King as #1 but it was variable with the other rankings around just like the many years prior. 1975 isn't bad to start at. I'll definitely give it a go updating the already entered players to 1975 & giving them the additional RankPerYears on each,

1) Now The RankPerYears would start with the "FirstYear" & Any new players I add would go to the bottom of the PlayerBase?

2) Also while I know Juniors in game can't be edited as you mentioned, there's no way I can change the NbPureJunior number on either ATP or WTA ini to lower # to allow more of the add-ins as well right? I know I asked that question previously (3) but I think you skipped over it

[manutoo]

1) Yes

2) If you add a lot of players every year and you don't add Junior tournaments, you can lower NbPureJunior.
