Play Knowledge NUMERIC

This would help greatly

The Bars are helpful, but it would do a world of good for us to understand how long it takes certain things to happen in Play Knowledge.

I was told it takes FOREVER, even for 100 INT guys.

My Rookie finished his First Season, has 100 INT... he's Mastered 27 Offensive Plays. But there isn't a single Defensive Play where he's over 40% (Makes sense, as I run my plays 16 Games, and each Game he faces Teams with different Defensive Plays).

What I'm getting at is that, at least on an Individual, I don't see Play Knowledge takes that long to acquire to an extreme amount. I mean, 27 Offensive Plays in a Single Season and missing the Play Offs to not get those 'Bonus' Plays in.

At this rate, if Owners don't change and keep their Current Play Books, there will be Defensive Plays I have Mastered in only 2 1/2 Seasons as well. Since logically these will be the Plays I face the most often, they will be the ones I need him his Best at, so that works. Sure another Play could be killing me, but if it's not ran enough then overall it is only a speed bump, and if they run it enough eventually I will have Knowledge of it to counter it. Double Edge Blade there.

If we had Play Knowledge as a Numeric, that would make things much simpler for us.

If you haven't seen my post in the other thread, I'll repost here.

You need to compare the plays that your rookie knows against the plays you actually run. Players come pregenerated with knowledge in certain plays. Most of the plays that they have knowledge in, I don't use because they are kind of dumb or wholly ineffective (all of the Rhino 3-1-1 sets for instance).

Once you make that comparison, you'll have a good idea of what plays that you actually ran that he mastered.

Yet still, having this as a Numeric instead of a Bar would make this easier. :D
