Hi,

I try to find it on forum but no luck so I ask here. Do you know how to calculated sponsor investments for next year? I try to find out becouse I don't know what my sponsor offers me so I can't compare it with other offers.

Any idea?

I think that this could be a way:

1. Go in dyn_sponsor and change Contract End-year to the current year
2. Go in dyn_team and edit value_i_sponsor_future with this algorithm. You can find the sponsorid in the sponsor table. The bugdet is the total budget for the whole year and you must divide it for 1000.
(65536*IDsponsor) + (budget/1000)

So, for EXAMPLE:
For sponsor "Matt's Bakery" that has id 10 you must execute this:
(65536x10) + (9999000/1000)
655360 + 9999 = 665359 (the value you will put into value_contract_future)

Thanks I will try.

1. You can compare them if you wait until the 21st of June, when you can start extending contracts and hiring new riders. On the negotiation screen it will tell you how much your current sponsor is prepared to pay you next season.

2. Be warned, though: There is no immediate benefit to picking a new sponsor. You'll be restricted to the maximum authorised wage bill your current sponsor is currently offering (and not what he's offering for next season), that does not change by picking a new sponsor for next season.

So I choose my sponsor based on the jersey I like best and the region the sponsor is interested in more than the money that's being offered, that will only come into play a year later if at all.
