Yes, that was clear to me as well. I was only speculating about the possibility of a positive effect after the initial calculation of the injury (player changes team resp. team changes Doctor). But that has now been clarified as a false assumption.

I don't realy get it.

what does mapping to a range mean?
Howcome for the worst injury possible the doktor level has no effect at all (each level will leave you a 5 week injury based on your table)

Could you clarify all this a little for me, this is important info. And just to make sure, this comes from a BB right??

They are not your friends; they dispise you. I am the only one you can count on. Trust me.

Yes it came from a BB, though he didn't express it in the same terms.

You start out with the original injury, which is a value between 0 and 10.

By mapping, I mean converting values in the original range of 0 to 10 to a new range. So if you had a level 8 doctor, you would map the range 0 to 10 to 0 to 9. Which is the same as multiplying by 9/10.

It may be easier to reverse the process.

If you have a level 10 doctor, injuries that were originally 0 to 5 would only last for the rest of the game. This is more than 1/2 of all injuries.

If you have a level 1 doctor, injuries that were originally 0 to 0.9 would only last for the rest of the game. So a much larger share would happen after the game.

If you had a level 6 doctor, injuries that were originally 0 to 3.75 would only last for the rest of the game.

If you had a level 10 doctor, injuries that were originally in the range 9 to 10 would be +4 to +5 after the game.

With a level 1 doctor, injuries that were originally in the range 8.2 to 10 would be +4 to +5 after the game, so almost twice as many would be of the longest duration.

With a level 6 doctor, injuries that were originally 8.75 to 10 would be +4 to +5 after the game.

So you can still have +5 injuries with any doctor. These would be rare to start with, and top doctor would make them even rarer.
