Hi,

when i compare estimated training results of your excel-sheet and real training results, there is a huge gap.
example: my 25yo 6´10´´tall center received 1on1 for forward the whole season. he popped from lvl 9 to lvl 10 JS in week 3 and to lvl 11 JS in week 9. the estimated skill lvl of your simulation is 10,55 for this 6 weeks of traininig.
this guy is a very balanced player. may this cause the huge difference?
regards

edit:
one more example: 24 yo 7´1´tall center popped to lvl 6 JS in week 3 and to lvl 7 in week 7. it took only 4 weeks for one JS up.
Estimated weeks of your simulation is 8-9 weeks.

It's based on the training data pulled from the people on the BB training project. It's pretty decent data but I imagine that the number of data points for people training 6'10+ players at age 24+ in one on one is probably low indeed (though I'm there too). I also find that it often underestimates the JS and even IS training from 1v1 FW, but it's close enough that it's still a very useful tool.

I agree

I'm calling it quits in BB. But anyone who wants to adapt and update my work is welcome to it. Thanks for using my tool. I hope it was useful.

Man ! Your tool is the most helpful stuff in the BB community (with BM also).
Thanks for all your hard work and good luck in your non-BB life :°).
cheers !

Since rhyanminson isn't playing anymore, can anyone update the sheet? You can still use it by simply setting a year less, but it would be nice if anyone can update it.

First, your training simulator is fantastic, thank you for all the work you put into it.

Second, I have a question about it if you or another user could help me.

I'm using V2.6S25

From the spreadsheet:
'Although you can see past training, the simulator ignores all training before today's date. For this sheet to work properly you must update the “Player Input” sheet after each BB Training update (Friday). Leave Regimen blank for Team Training (ST, FT, GS), since the TS ignores those skills.'

On the 'Player Input' section, I used 'Set Your Lineup Option'.

Everything was working fine. After week 1, I had one player jump in JS.
So I went to player input and manually put in his new JS rating on Saturday.

The problem is everyone who trained in JS that week had their training calculator values reset to their original whole number value prior to training in week 1.

Example: The calculator had one player increasing from 6.0 to 6.31. After entering the data from another player who increased in value to 9, the other player now reads 6.0 and similar for other players as it was 2 position training.

Thanks

What's probably happening is that since the training occurred on Friday, if you didn't update your players with the sublevels calculated for that pop, it's no longer processing that. The way I generally do this is to change the date for week one of the first season back a couple of days so that the training results are updated again, and then copy the updated values in the training results section into the player input sheet's "do-it yourself" option, fix the data for early pops or predicted pops that didn't come, and then change the date back on the training calculator sheet.

Thank You

Just to be clear I understand, going forward, anytime I update a player's increase in a skill to the next whole number, I also need to update every player's value in that same skill to include 100ths of a point - example 6.31.

That would be painful but work. I just make sure that the values are all there and copy and paste them from the training results section to the input section, and then make the small number of fixes that are induced because of extra/missing pops.

Excellent - Thanks for the tip.
