Hello all,

Apologies if this has already been answered before but I can't find a search function for the forum to check.

My question is, what is the "weight" field used for at the bottom of the attributes just above the OK button used for? Does it literally factor how heavy a player is into the rating percentage? Or does this affect the weighting of the attributes? I notice it is different for every position but I've never altered it for fear of cocking something up!

Any advice would be appreciated.

Cheers.
Hi Wint,

The weight field is about the weighting of the attributes.

The actual weight of a player is meaningless even to the match engine. :)
Thanks Stam. So if you put a higher number in (max is 120) does that put a greater emphasis on the attributes you have allocated values for?
Yes, that's what it's supposed to do. Play with it and let me know if it works for you as intended.
