Making a rider being injured longer
timpiej
Hi there

The 2012 DB looks great, congrats for that.

Now, I want to know if there is a possibility to change the date that a certain rider is out of injury?

I would use that for 'doped' riders, since the DYN_injury-method that CrueTrue told me last august didn't work for me ( https://pcmdaily.com/forum/viewthread....d_id=19570 ).
And I still want my DB to start in 2004 so I quite need to get rid of some riders temporary :-).

Well there's only one way to add an injury to a rider - DYN_injury. It's not a method, it's the only way. To make it longer, just change the number of days in gene_f_duration (and unless you're doing this to an existing savegame, make sure gene_f_timeleft is the same as duration).
 
timpiej
Well that's the thing, as you can see in the earlier topic I've tried this (I've tried it in a savegame and database) but It didnt work... And that's quite the same as what you are saying now? Or am I wrong?
 
lluuiiggii
Just took a look at the thread again, yes I'm actually saying the same.

Well I don't know what could be the problem, also don't know if there's other way to add injuries (and I don't think so). I can only tell you to try a 2nd time and see if it works.

Was ahead of you there, I just tried it, did everything CT said at that time, had some born in 1993 injured for a little over 7years so he becomes available to sign in the year he becomes 18. In March of my first season he was already available for signing..... =/

Why don't you just add the rider after the 6th season?

Either way, it should work if you do as said in the old thread. If you reopen the saved save-game with the changes, do the changes still appear?

Yes, but like said on the second page of that thread, after a few days in the game everything has changed once again...

And why not add them after the 6th season? I would have a big amount of riders to add after every season. I only want riders to ride/make progress when they're 18 or above.

Well you'd have an even bigger amount of riders to add right now (when you can't even be sure you'll be reaching the sixth season).

I've made a cdb for 2004 before so I can copy those riders, and I'm in 2014 in that career so that's not the problem, the only problem is that when e.g. Sagan comes in, 18 years and starts competing with Cavendish for the win immediatly...

If the riders are injured, will they make any progress? I don't know, but I doubt it.

I'm not sure why it doesn't work for you. Personally, I have never had any problems, so it's a bit weird, really.

No, the riders aren't injured, but that was what I was saying, after about 6 months everyone was out of injury so after every season I had to put them without a team, but they would have all the time to train then, so when they became 18 in game, some had reached their top stats, and that's to unrealistic for me to handle Pfft.

I know, couldn't you just make the injuries? Since there's 2012db now, I might use that one, so I would need 8 injuries, 1 per year? Would you be so kind if I attach it?

You can't set an injury to start in the next year f.e. instead of now.

But I still do not understand why can't you simply add the riders when you reach the year in your career.

No, the injury shouldn't start next year, I mean I need an injuries that ends in 1 year, an injury that ends in 2 years, ... until 8 years.

Well, To add riders every year would be so much work, it's not the injury that have to be added, it's just that I don't want riders to be available (for races) before they are 18. And riders turning 18 when starting in 2004, that means that e.g. in 2005 I should add all the riders born in 1987, that's alot mate, that's just too much work!

It isn't much work if you use an editor like the Full Editor, where you can open the tables in excel and paste all riders in one time.

Plus, if I think I understand you: you'll create one injury lasting 1 year, then add it to all riders born in 1987, f.e.? I'm not sure if you can 're-use' the injury - give the same injury to more than one rider. But also I don't think it's impossible.

But well, having all those riders (born after 1987) injured could mess up the game big time.. don't forget that the teams will still contract these riders, so you could end up with a team made of 15 riders but only 10 available for race.

No, I would give the riders born in 1987 a 1 year injury, those born in '88 a 2 year injury, so I wouldn't re-use it. I didn't think that far to use excell with the full editor, even though I've done it that way before (to lower stats on a group of riders).

I know it could mess up the game a bit, but that was the case as well with the doped riders in the pcmdaily packs (even though now much more riders would be injured). Maybe I should do it with adding them, thanks for the tip.

That's what I meant with re-use - create one injury in DYN_injury and set it for all 1987 riders, then another one and set for all 1988 riders.. unless you were going to create one injury in DYN_injury for each rider. But then again I'm not sure if this would cause much trouble.

As you pointed out, there's quite a difference between putting injuries for 43 riders (PCM Daily 2011 DB) and 1300 riders (all riders born after 1987 - 41% of all riders in the Daily 2012 DB) Wink
