I haven't made it "pretty" yet but the Strategy Tester is now available on the strategy page.--Chris

It doesn't appear to show you when you would try a FG in 4th-down situations that call for it. It only shows you 4th-and-short (or whatever).
Is it actually taking into account the time/timeouts situations?

Timeouts aren't taken into account by any of the base strategies; those fields are for the (eventual) advanced strategies.
I think I'm going to have to find a way to build kicking evaluation into this page because I expect this will become a very common question.

The strategy tester only evaluates the base strategies; there are too many in-game variables for it to show kicking strategies.Timeouts aren't taken into account by any of the base strategies; those fields are for the (eventual) advanced strategies.

(Doesn't have to take into account whether or not the kick would be good or not, just could automatically set it to an "average" kicker in normal weather.

Haven't tried it yet, but a big key to it will be the kicking settings at some point.(Doesn't have to take into account whether or not the kick would be good or not, just could automatically set it to an "average" kicker in normal weather.

What I think I can do is go halway and have the page say "Kick if the chance of making the kick is x%", but I think what people are really hoping to see is what the chance of making it from there is (which is actually a completely separate page).

Weather isn't the problem, the problem is that it also depends on who the kicker and holder are in the formation and what their current fatigue levels are. A bigger part of thge problem is that the base strategy valuator is in a separate piece of code that I can load separately for the page, where the kicking evaluator is part of the game code.What I think I can do is go halway and have the page say "Kick if the chance of making the kick is x%", but I think what people are really hoping to see is what the chance of making it from there is (which is actually a completely separate page).
