Snake Doctor,
1) right now, slice mastery influences only the speed & spin of the slices ; it may change in the future.

2) But now, when you charge a short time, you do a poor defensive slice that is easy to attack but has a high net clearance and isn't too long, so there are not too many errors with it

3) I won't do the 1st step speed boost helper before everything else is in place, because 1st I need to balance the game correctly with the default settings (ie: if everybody starts to play with this helper I won't be able to make the game works without it :fear: )

4) Tonicity has been renamed to Muscle Tone ; it's still the same thing, though => https://www.managames.com/tennismanager ... tml#skills .

Is this ball in or out Image
Was called in, I think it had to have been called out since the mark it left doesn't correspond with the trajectory of the ball so there is either one of two problems here, the shadows left in the court are wrong or the game engine is taking out balls as in.

I wasn't recording but I could with some program if needed :fear:
Tour Mod.

Tour issues by PM or Discord
If you don't send me a PM or DM, you might see your chances reduced. Inform me about anything that might have gone on with your matches BEFORE deadlines, otherwise, decisions won't be changed.

Algo,
it looks in to me as well.
You can do a Bug Report in such case, so I'll get a screenshot & the .dmo (if you hadn't turned off the recording) ; HowTo => topic5-31732.php .

I am finding passing a net player has become difficult with the last few releases. In one of the last release the accelaration shot difficulty has been increased, which is good as there is now a better balance in offence and defence, but it has made passing a player more difficult combined with the fact that due to the addition of strech animation, the net player has a bigger reach. In the screen-shot below I have hit a dipping pass, which would have been a sure winner in previous release but now it came back as a volley winner. I think, all players should not have the ability to strech like that at net, it should the one only for a gifted few like Boris Becker

noys390,
I might tune that in the future, but 1st I'd like to handle the loss of balance when the player bends so much by forcing him to take 1 or 2 more steps, which could be enough to rebalance the volleying. :)

I had a bit more time to play this past week. My biggest complaint is that my player moves incredibly slow towards balls that clipped the net and fell short. This was the problem in TE2013 as well.

Otherwise, is it possible to somehow increase the speed of regular strikes and decrease the speed of acceleration strikes? Ideally, it would be great if you could fine tune this for every player in data files or game menus.

JaNeZoKu,
1) The player always accelerates in the same way. If he actually accelerates less than usually, you can send me a Bug Report (HowTo => topic5-31732.php )

2) Yes & no. :blackeye: (ie: ask again in 6 months)

Hey folks...so I downloaded the latest version of the alpha.

When I pull up the player sheets to look at their settings, the character figure is blank. I can’t see what clothes they are wearing. There is just a white outline of a player. What am I missing here? There is an outline of my player but I can’t see him to modify his clothes.

Thanks for any suggestions!
