Don't think that potential abilities does anything noticeable, players never reach potential attri
I meant to say that players never reach their potential attribute , they do however improve a bit each season but it is irrespective of what you set their potential attribute manually, like I tested two players with similar initial ability but one player with legendary potential attribute and one with decent potential attribute and I sim through the decade only to find that even after a decade both players current skill attributes are more or less similar and yes they improved like 25% from their initial skills but I thought the one with legendary potential will turn in to a legendary player which didn't happen.@TemPSaad I have checked and I think it is working fine. I can see a player's ability increase by about 10% within about 3 years.
@weetabixharry, I think the problem is that the ability seems to up in the editor but the player does not perform or get chosen inspite of this. Maybe there's some other hidden attribute?
@weetabixharry I think I probably know the issue. It's age-related. Once a player reaches 30-32, his selection from the AI is very difficult unless you increase the ability to very high numbers. Even then, he hardly performs. I think this is where the issue lies.
Well, I know how frustrating it must be for everyone when you try to play a career mode. You want to play against a proven opposition team, not one filled with virtually unknown regenerated players!@Prashanth S Kharche Yeah I agree - I think this is probably a flaw in the AI. Until I can figure out how to edit squad selections, there's not much we can do. You could try reporting it on the childishthings.com forums and there's a (very) small chance a developer will be interested and fix it in Cricket Captain 2021+.
I have made virtually no progress with editing squad selections. Hoping for a breakthrough soon.
