1. What does attribute quality influence?
Quality determines how fast the player is able to improve the given attribute.

2. How can I find out the exact value of the average quality of a player?
To see the exact values of quality of attributes, you have to scout the player. You can see the scouting progress and results in the Scouting page. The scouting efficiency depends on the level of human resources and economic department and its staff.

3. Can I increase the average quality of a player?
The average quality is a characteristic, that is inborn and does not change throughout the career. It is an average of qualities of the individual attributes and it only has informative significance.

4. What kind of influence does career longevity have?
Career longevity indicates, how long a player will be able to improve his skills. It has 7 visible levels, which are, in fact, subdivided into many more levels. Career longevity is calculated once a season, but it does not have to change every season. The value is relative and it may happen that a player with smaller career longevity at the beginning will end up improving for a longer period of time than a player with higher initial longevity. This could be caused by various factors, such as injuries, which can speed up the loss of career longevity of a player.

5. How can I increase career longevity of my players?
Career longevity cannot be increased. It can only diminish. Career longevity may be decreased by frequent injuries and therefore you can slow down the loss of career longevity by preventing injuries. To prevent injuries, make sure you have a high level of medical center and quality medical staff.

6. Why is energy of a player represented by two numbers?
The first number represents the current energy of a player, the second number is the seasonal energy.

7. Why does the current energy of my players decrease?
Current energy of players decreases after each match they play. Players regenerate after the match to reach the value of the seasonal energy.

8. How can I increase energy of my players?
The seasonal energy cannot be increased. You can only slow down its decrease by playing matches on low importance. Current energy is automatically regenerated during the daily calculation so that it reaches the value of the seasonal energy. The efficiency of regeneration of players, and also how much time they will have left for practice, depends on the level of regeneration facility and its staff.

9. Why do some players have seasonal energy below 100?
Seasonal energy decreases automatically as a result of playing games. You can slow down its decrease by playing games on low importance. On the other hand, playing games on high importance significantly speeds up the loss of seasonal energy.

10. How can I increase popularity of my players?
The popularity of the players grows with the number of games played. Popularity is also greatly influenced if a player becomes a star of the game or game day.

11. What influence does player's popularity have?
High popularity of a player has influence on attendance and souvenir sale.

12. How is the overall rating of a player calculated?
Overall rating is the sum of all attributes of the player.

13. How can I increase experience of my players?
Experience is gained with every game played. The amount of experience gained depends on the type of the game. A player will gain much more experience in a league game than in a friendly game. The experience gain is even bigger in international cups and national team games.

14. How is the player salary determined?
The player salary depends mainly on his overall rating, experience, popularity and league level. Higher league means higher expenses on player salaries. Foreign players have 25% higher salaries than local players. ყველა მოთამაშე ითვლება მსოფლიო ლიგის ადგილობრივ მოთამაშედ, წარმოშობის მიუხედავად.

15. What is the maximum/minimum duration of a player contract?
The duration of a player's contract upon arrival from the sports academy is determined randomly in the range between 35 and 105 days. All the subsequent contracts will be signed for 70 days.

16. Can I assign a player to practice more than one attribute?
If you have the PRO pack, you can use the automatic practice feature to set the desired attribute ratio that you want the player to achieve by practice.

17. How do I set the automatic practice?
Go to a player's profile and find the option to add automatic practice. You will see an empty field under each attribute. You can enter arbitrary numbers here based on the attribute ratio that you want the player to achieve or maintain. The player will always practice the attribute that is furthest away from the desired ratio. Once the desired ratio has been reached, the player will continue with practice while maintaining this ratio. If you don't fill out any number for some attributes, the player will not practice those attributes at all.

18. How can I increase improvement rate of my players?
The improvement rate of your players depends on the quality of the practiced attribute, which cannot be improved. Therefore, the only way you can increase the improvement rate is by the level of training and regeneration facilities and the staff working there.

19. How can I change a nickname or number of a player?
Both the number and the nickname can be changed directly in the player's profile. Nickname is a PLUS pack feature and jersey number is a PRO pack feature.

20. Can I give the same nickname or number to more players?
Nickname yes, jersey number no.

21. What should I do, if I want to have more juniors coming out of the sports academy or if I want them to be better?
The number of juniors and the values of their attributes depend on the level of the sports academy and its staff.

22. What are the maximum values of attributes?
Player attributes are unlimited and can grow infinitely. Staff member attributes can grow to a maximum of 100.

23. To what age can the players play before they are forced to retire?
A player retires only if his employer will no longer want to sign a contract with him and he is not claimed from the free agents market by any team.

24. Why do players, who have played a game, practice less than those who haven't played the game?
This is because the players who have played in a game must first regenerate and then they have less time for practice. With the increasing level of the regeneration facility, the time needed for regeneration decreases and therefore also the difference in practice time between those who play and those who don't decreases.

25. Why has the potential of a player changed as soon as I drafted him?
The potential of a player in the draft is only an estimate by your human resources and economic department. This estimate may be different at the time of the draft from one that you got when you scouted the player. However, the real potential of the player has not changed and you will see his real qualities only after signing a contract with him and scouting him.

26. What does the diamond icon next to a player in the draft stand for?
The diamond icon signifies a hidden gem. It's a player whose talent scouts failed to discover before the draft.

27. Why doesn't the number of my draft picks correspond to the number players that I can scout every day like it is written in the guide?
The number of players that you can scout every day in the draft is determined on the day when the names of the players are published. The number of draft picks is determined a little later after that. If you have changed your sporting directors or built or demolished some levels of the sports academy in the meantime, the number of your picks may have changed.

თამაში

1. Where can I find when and who I play next?
You can find details about the next game in the "Next game" page. Here you can see what lineup will start in the game and what tactics have you selected, as well as brief info about the opponent. You will also get a message about the upcoming game in Team News.

2. How can I change my line-up for the game?
The line-up can be edited on the Line-up page. If you go to your calendar or the Next game page, you can select one of your line-ups for any particular game. If you don't do this, the games will be played by your default line-up.

3. Which attributes are important for the particular positions?
Players use all the attributes during the game, but not to the same extent. For example passing is the most important attribute for a point guard and he should practice this attribute the most. But you shouldn't forget about the other attributes. More information about attributes can be found in the guide.

4. Can I change lineup or tactics during the game?
No, this option is blocked during the games. However, you can set how your team should react in certain situations in the game. You can set these options in the Tactics page.

5. What influence on the outcome of the game does the game importance setting have?
The importance of the game is a critical tactical option. You have to use it with care, because even though high importance makes your players play with the maximum intensity, it causes them to get fatigued faster. Low importance is not that costly on the energy, but the players do not play with a high intensity.

6. Where can I set the ticket prices?
You can set the ticket price on the Tickets page in the Finances section.

7. How can I increase attendance?
Attendance is influenced by several factors. The most important ones are overall team rating of your team and the opponent, current rank of both teams in the standings and the level of the stands in your arena as well as the accessories.

8. What does it mean, if my player has been selected among the three stars of the game?
Extra points are added to his popularity and he becomes better known among the fans.

9. If my player is in the three star selection in a friendly game, is it the same as if he was in that selection in a league game?
No, the number of points added to popularity depends on the game type, in which he got into the three star selection. Therefore a player will earn more points for a league game than for a friendly game.

10. What does it mean if the match is marked as a derby?
A game is marked as a derby if it is played by teams from the same country and region. This sort of a game, as a rule, has higher attendance and the home advantage is smaller than usual.

11. How can I send a friendly game challenge?
You can send a friendly game challenge from the calendar of the team you want to challenge. Click on a date when the given team does not have a scheduled game and you will see the options to send a challenge in the box with details.
