1. What penalty is there for playing a player out of his natural position?
--- Quote from: admin on November 02, 2011, 07:57:23 AM ---"Positions" indicates the proficiency of a player in each playing position.
- "Green" indicates high proficiency
- "Yellow" indicates moderate proficiency
- "Red" indicates no proficiency
No colour -> affect performance around 10%
Red (Awkward) -> affect performance around 7-8%
Yellow (Unconvincing) -> affect performance around 4-5%
Dark Green (Accomplished) -> affect performance around 2-4%
Green (Natural) -> No effect on performance

2. At what level does condition negatively affect player performance and how do I recover player condition (if less than 100%)?
Efficiency decreases as condition decreases. But a player won't have this penalty if his condition is over 92%. (From game manual)
There're only 2 ways to recover condition:
* Do not use your player, let him rest (he'll recover 3% each day if training workload is set to medium or easy, 1% if set to hard).
* Do recovery activities, enter in your player's profile, go to the "Activity" tab, the first option is recover condition, you can get 2% paying 1 credit or 80 energy points.

4. What affect does Academy quality have on players available for promotion from the Academy?
--- Quote from: admin on February 13, 2011, 06:23:17 AM ---The better your academy, the greater chance to get great players.
The starting attributes of the players from a higher level academy might have no significant difference
compare to ones from a lower level academy but their potential and progress rate are usually much better.
Please note that when a player reaches his potential, their will be no or little improvement.

Additionally, Academy level affects CA, LA and PR of promoted players
source: http://forum.gokickoff.com/index.php?topic=404.0
An estimation of the probability of promoting a LA9+ player was calculated based on statistics posted by admin on 31 October 2011.
--- Quote from: Brian Clough on December 08, 2012, 02:33:24 AM ---Based on data given by admin here, I calculated estimated probabilities of getting an LA9 player. The available data yielded a regression curve that estimated this probability per player given academy level P(a) with the equation:
P(a) = 4 x 10-6a6.2841
where a is the academy level (1=very bad,...,6=the best)
This function fit the data well; R2=0.98467
Using this, the following probabilities were calculated; per player, out of 7 players (old system) and out of 8 players (new system):
Academy LevelProbLA9/playerProb 1+ LA9/7 playersProb 1+ LA9/8 playersvery bad0.001%0.004%0.005%bad0.026%0.181%0.206%okay0.398%2.756%3.143%good1.465%9.816%11.138%very good21.429%81.514%85.475%the best31.048%92.590%94.891%
To preface: I'm not sure how the acquisition of additional players figures into this, since additional players from academy with the old system appeared to be all lower quality (never LA7+) players...plus there is the possibility that these odds were changed somewhat with the new system, but without any data provided by admin, it is impossible to know...so, these are rough estimates, but they are probably pretty close to the actual ones used in the game engine.
[This still means there is a] 14.525% chance that a "very good" academy will produce zero LA9+ players out of 8....
