Question about Injuries.....

[donutman]

Ok, so i noticed that it seems to be a improved/different injury engine. What I want to know is, how does it work?

Yao Ming:

+ Injured with a torn Achilles (12/02/07)
+ Aggravated injury (11/30/07)
+ Aggravated injury (11/28/07)
+ Aggravated injury (11/25/07)
+ Aggravated injury (11/24/07)
+ Aggravated injury (11/21/07)
+ Aggravated injury (11/19/07)
+ Injured with a broken leg (11/18/07)

How did he aggravate the injury? He didn't play in any game after his injury. Although I didn't put him on the inactive list, he was the 12th man.

that's a good question - if he didn't play at all then he shouldnt have been able to make it worse. I'll have to check the injury code and see what's going on because yes, its a little different than before

Maybe your coach is a harda** and road him hard in practice making him aggravate it? :P

LOL, if that was really the case, this game is GOD for implementing small things like that.

+ Aggravated injury (02/11/09)
+ Aggravated injury (02/09/09)
+ Aggravated injury (02/07/09)
+ Aggravated injury (02/06/09)
+ Aggravated injury (02/04/09)
+ Aggravated injury (02/02/09)
+ Aggravated injury (01/31/09)

His original injury length was about 140 days, now he's up to 573 :(

The best part is that the ai GM of the twolves signed him to a free agent deal even though he was already injured and has 1200!!!!! days to go on his injury. The length of his contract is shorter than the length of his injury. It's 2011 now in my league and he hasn't reinjured himself in a while, but he still has 4 years to go!

I think I found the source of this bug today and it hopefully will be fixed in the next beta patch

Nice to see the aggravating injury bug being dealt with. Any chance of looking at the GM AI in regards to them signing injured players, especially players with long-term injuries.
