I started a few months back and just did most of the final testing today, and the new patcher fatigue modeling looks to be improved. There were some lingering issues with starters recovering too quickly etc. which look a lot better. I also added a percentage of full health estimate to the player card.

These changes will show up in the next update.

If you use to make XML changes to modify PureSim's fatigue processing for pitchers then I suggest you do NOT make those changes with the next update -- give the defaults a try and let me know what you think.

Yeah, the old pitcher fatigue routine has created some oddities for me, with the AI starting guys on only one or two days rest and then getting clobbered. This is particularly prevalent when using 4-man rotations, as existing spot-starters are basically ignored.

I think this has a lot to do with the inordinately high number of walks issued by some pitchers, especially in the minors.

I've experienced simliar but not so good (for my team) results. I've seen teams running, effectively, on 3-men rotations, as their star pitcher was going on only 2 days rest and still performing decently. Granted, the rest of their rotation couldn't pitch their way out of a wet paper bag, but that's not my problem! Fortunately, this only happened for one year, and it resulted in some tainted stats in that year (one pitcher threw 383 strikes in a season).

All looks well now... for the moment.

Awesome! I had a handle on the starters, but the AI not using the whole bullpen was bugging me. Can't wait for this update.

Pretty cool stuff....(begging..

...pleading).....but still looking for pitcher and batter ratings and/or fatigue based on their AB or IP in a season when compared to real life. It would make for a much more accurate replay, IMO.

I don't know about that. In my real player KG Erwin League what if association. Dizzy Dean didn't get hurt and pitched very well until 1947 when he retired. If I had started in the 20's instead of 1936, Dean may have been a 300 game winner. Instead he won 264. I like that. Ted Williams and Joe DiMaggio didn't miss the war years. In 1949 so far DiMaggio has 415 home runs. So each to his own.
