Passing Adjustments

April 19, 2015 at 06:09PM View BBCode

I've mad a big change to the way pressure adjustments are made. Rather than applied directly, they are applied proportionally now. Also,i have reduced a multiplier on long passing adjustments that may have clamped down too hard on long passing.

Due to butterfly effect, however, this may suddenly make the passing game way too easy, especially on short passes. The only way to tell is to play.

Please take a look at your Zeta and Beta Premium teams and get them into playing shape if they are neglected, and let's take a look at the passing numbers.

As of the first quarter today. Detroit is 6/12 and Winnepeg 4/14 for a total of 90 yds.

The changes went in after halftime for Week 13 for Zeta.

I've taken over Toledo with User101 as its owner hadn't logged in for six months and am working to get its roster into shape with an eye toward setting it up as a long passing team. Of course it has lousy QBs so that may not be possible.

Hey Chris I'll send a trade offer, I've got a strong armed QB on the Tennessee roster who might help test the long ball.

On the pressure what do you mean by proportionally just so I can better understand? How will this apply to heavy blitz teams and the passing game? Thanks.

Week 14 Tennessee vs. Chicago, QBs combined to go 32/117 ......... my QB [url=http://footballbeta.simdynasty.com/player.jsp?displaytab=stats&id=583203&statsyear=2062&statstype=reg&statsmode=pass&statsloc=all&statsweather=-1]Anderson[/url], you know the guy who is 100 power/96 accuracy is 17/81 in his past 2 games, 12/58 under 20 yards.

That doesn't look very encouraging to me.

Yardage is actually slightly higher on a per team basis 188 vs 181 but that completion drop is pretty steep.

Okay, I'll look at it again.

I think I need to take some time here and sever the scrimmage code from the rest of the code so I can test it separately like I can with kicks.

After 2 games and 3 QTR the beta BPFL stats are off overall normal passing is running at a very low % .The long pass is 7.1 poinrs over it. Here is the link to the start of the season where it began after Chris announced the change. teams have the normal spread of Qb's and 14 teams of 16 are fully participating.

In the BPFL my QB is completing 52.4% between 20-39 yards but only 32.9% under 20 yards, prior to this year his completion % on passes less than 20 yards was 62.3% .

I basically went short and very limited sg to start / reg short and can't complete a pass (AVERAGE QB) but very limited attempts, At this early point 0 teams are at 50%on under 20. Still worth letting it ride for a while just to see. My link has updated results as games progress.

The int vs td ratio is where I see a fix needed.

I found the bug that was destroying the passing game. It was actually worse than it seemed; failsafes and automatic compensators kicked in to limit the damage and make the bug less apparent. Which is good if things go off the rails in a production game but I may need to turn those off during testing.

Anyone looking at Beta Premium stats can add &fromweek=4 to the URL to exclude the bad stats from weeks 1-3.
