Choosing the initial court at the coach center

Postby Spicer » 15 Jul 2018, 10:29

Hi,

For the initial court for our coach center, we have a choice between
- Cement (Normal speed)
- Indoor Hard Court (Mid-Fast)
- Synthetic (Mid-Slow)

There are two problems however:

First, the documentation lists Indoor Hard Court as Fast, not Mid-Fast

Second, whatever you choose, the skills being improved after a few months of training end-up being the same:
Mid-Slow 32%
Normal 98%
Mid-Fast 32%

Hello,

fixed in today's build !

The documentation doesn't use the same nomenclature than the game, so I guess I'll have to update the doc... :fear:

Hmmm, so after a year of training (on today's build)

Choosing Indoor Hardcourt, I end up as expected with 32.8% in Normal, 99.9% in Mid-fast and 32.8% in Fast
But when choosing Synthetic, I end up with 99.9% both in Mid-Slow and Normal and 0 in all three other surfaces

Yes, it's normal.

But I guess your point was that it doesn't train the Slow skill, thus I changed the speed of the Synthetic to Mid Slow for the next update... ;)
And the NewLine Synthetic is now Slow+, which is more close to the reality (ie: almost as slow as clay).

OK, sounds good, but as said earlier the Doc is starting to look pretty dated.
So, should the table in the doc look like this now?
well after you fill in the "??"

Code: Select all
Surface             Type       Speed factor
Clay                slowest       -1.0
Green Clay          ??         ??
NewLine Synthetic      slow+      ??
Classic Synthetic      mid slow       -0.25
Cement             normal       0
Blue-Green Cement      normal+?       +0.25?
Indoor Hard          mid-fast?      +0.5?
Indoor Carpet?         very fast       +0.75
Grass             fastest       +1.0



It might be useful to add a tooltip displaying "slow / normal / mid-fast / etc" to the Surface column in the Planning screen.
I know we can view the surface speed it in the Coach Center, but that's only for the courts that can be built

I updated the doc here => https://www.managames.com/tennismanager/ ... l#surfaces .
Green clay is (nearly) identical to clay.
