After 2 days of general slowness (not talking about servers...), we finally arrived to the beginning... what Newton07 said was right.

Thanks, but not quite. I though the doctor would reduce the injury probability (like physiotherapist in HT) and speed up the healing (like doctors in HT). Here it works differently, although the final effect is similar.

Could a LA modify what is written is the rules?
Doctors help prevent player injuries, and help injured players recover more quickly.

This sentence is quite misleading. Many users are hiring a doctor after the injury has occurred and then complain because the player doesn't heal faster... and I think that reading the sentence above we can not blame them :)

we added in doctors skill into the formula which determines how severe the injury is (including the chance that the injury doesn't translate into an injury which lasts longer than the game).
This is equivalent to keeping the length of the injuries the same and speeding the healing process proportional to the doctors skill.

Forrest, as you understand, with this implementation there is no way for a simple user to evaluate the impact of the doctor.
This makes it difficult to decide which level is appropriate for a certain rooster.

Do you think you can provide us with a rough estimation, like:
-doctor level 5 reduces the gravity of the injury by 10%
-doctor level 10 by 15%

great point newton...

I think there is a fundamental problem... on one hand I think its confusing to users when you report a number of how long its going to take for something and it doesn't take that long. (the arena building process is an example of this).

on the other hand, what you say is true, and so you want to give the users some feedback that their doctor is working. Now they should be able to get that in some sense because if they have a crappy doctor they should get more and larger injuries than they would otherwise.

maybe the fist concern isn't so much of a problem as long as it acts in the users interest. (though they might get pissed if they sold someone who was injured supposedly for the playoffs in order to pick up a useful player and that injured player ends up coming back sooner .. and in the worst case contributing to the user getting beaten in the finals).

Also, if you don't plan for doctors to affect recovery speed (i.e. shorten), then remove it from being mentioned in the rules. It is a mis-leading statement, IMO.

the point is . . . . there is only one way a doctor has a affect to this game, its about hiring a good doctor early so when the injury comes it either be solved or time of recuperating will be short.

in other words the new hired doctors dont give a damn or wont care at all of those old injuries because they have a doctors oath saying whos patient is this then he only gets treated by that doctor.

maybe because the new doctor is afraid he will get sued once he interrupts the patient who already underwent the former doctors regime, the worst is your old doctor is fired.

In the last 2 games i had 4 injured players...what a hell is happening?!?...If we join the other player that was already injured that makes 5 injured players!...i can't manage my team with all this injuries!...i already have 2 BB seasons and, since this season, i never had an injured player.
I keep the same doctor all this seasons so i think the problem should not be there...

The problem is exactly there. How many levels did that same doctor lose over the seasons?
