Injuries

I noticed on the injury list players getting put out by knee reconstructions. Now how is it, that their only out for 6 weeks, even less. Wouldn't such an injury take time to heal, in some, most cases, put players out for the season????????

The program doesn't take into consideratio severity of an injury, it just assigns a random injury and a random date of MIA. For example, a person may have a broken skull and be out for 2 weeks...

Besides that - 1 game week may not necessarily equate to 1 real life week (all 4 day games are played in 1 real-time day)

Yeah the injuries aren't serious, it's like Mr Mxyzptlk said it just takes a date and a injury put togeter... looking at most of the injuries you would never see your players again if it was serious and I could just see the uproar if we did make it serious and the next injury put the player out for a year :rolleyes: - However saying that in the injury programme there is actually "Out for the the rest of the season" option so it can be slightly more relistic than the 1 week.

However it's not hard for Blewy to adjust the injuries so if you fancied a few more relisitic ones or funny ones iam sure Blewy would be happy to add/swap some over.
