As a big fan of sports sims I love the aspect of being able to control and manage what happens behind the scenes and on the field. I’m a player that spends more time in the managing and customising aspect compared to playing the game. I have just started a new team management career with a custom roster placing my created player into a team, and I’m interested to see if the players actually level up and how that exactly works. I have simulated two seasons and adjusted coaching influence for a few players to see if they would level up but there was no change in player ratings or overall ratings. Am I missing something and am I doing something wrong? Those that enjoy team management, what have you done to improve players overall ratings. ---

Are you referring to the increase in rating of your custom player or players in general? ---

Players in general including the custom player who still has a min and max potential overall. I made my player 75 overall and will see how it goes over another season. ---

I’ve played a few seasons now with my current save and I can confirm there is progression, quite a few players are increasing in overall. Just not entirely sure how it’d go with custom players. ---

Late to the party here. Correct me if I’m wrong but you only get a 1/4 or even half of the XP with no objectives hit with simulation. Progression is relatively quick when playing the season😊 ---

Does anyone know how player progression works? the amount of coachable points that can be assigned confuses me
