Hi was thinking a lot about it today because I was bothered by something and I finally found why...

- As we discussed on the forum months ago, a guy with 50 speed or catching should always have 50 speed or catching, whatever his position on the field... So a reduction of skills isn't the best solution IMO.
- The out of position penalty is needed in this game as most of the managers agree.
- A CB should have less penalty playing SF than playing QB.

So, I came with one suggestion in order to implement a "fair" out-of-position penalty :

- Having a new rating in Players called "Positional Experience" which would affect his playing.

Example :
A CB plays :
- CB - - > 5 stars
- SF - - > 3 stars
- QB - - > 0,5 stars

Not a bad idea. What should the positional experince influence in the game? Skill (i think not), TC, Experience, Moral?

I don't know what's possible and how it could be implemented... But that would be a more realistic view of the sport...

And that way maybe a Kicker could be a 4,5 star P so you have a really slight penalty but you have one when playing the same guy

Example :


5 stars 100% TC, 100% Moral, 100% Experience
4 stars 80% TC, 80% Moral, 80% Experience
3 stars 70%TC, 70% Moral, 70% Experience
2 stars 60% TC, 60% Moral, 60% Experience
1 star 50% TC, 50% Moral, 50% Experience

That could do the trick...

The differnce between a Punter and a Kicker is bigger.

I know but as we were going with no penalty in this particular out of position, It may be sufficient here

And to go the easiest way, it could be shown in the DC when putting a player out of position...

The funny thing: I could write "we do it this way" and add the penalties as I like it
