🧠 Hint Sheet #1

⭐ Player Ratings & Skills Explained

Every player has:
✅ Overall Rating (0–100%)
✅ 11 individual Skills (each 0–100%)
Higher = Better in both cases.
Skills are split into:
- Primary Skills 🏆 (affect Rating)
- Secondary Skills 🛠️ (do not affect Rating but still influence performance)

Step	Description
1️⃣	Each position (GK, DEF, MID, ATT) uses a specific set of Primary Skills
2️⃣	The number of primary skills is not shown — managers must discover it
3️⃣	Player Rating = (Sum of Primary Skill Values ÷ Number of Primary Skills)
4️⃣	Final value is rounded to the NEAREST whole number (e.g. 46.49% → 46%; 46.99% → 47%)

💡 This means even tiny increases in key skills can trigger a full rating point rise.

Feature	Primary Skills 🏆	Secondary Skills 🛠️
Affect Overall Rating?	✅ Yes	❌ No
Position-Specific?	✅ Yes	⚠️ Can be
Important for Match Performance?	✅ Very	✅ Still important
Secret or Known?	❓ Must be discovered	✅ All visible

Without this knowledge, you’re managing in the dark.

Here’s a simple step-by-step method:

Track a player’s skills weekly, especially when his Rating changes 📅
Open your Manager’s Report at Squad Report: Part 4 → note which skills changed and which stayed the same
Skills that did not rise when Rating increased = NOT Primary ❌
Make a list of the possible Primary Skills ✅
Add them together ➗ divide by number of skills ➡️ round to hearest whole number
If this matches his Rating → you’re onto something 🧠✨
Test this on other players in the same position
Congratulations — you’ve begun your journey to Rating enlightenment! 🌟
