Time out suggestion
First, I will say I don't have any experience in coding or how difficult it is to implement changes to the game engine. also, I have not reviewed all the other suggestions so this may have already been brought up.
that said, since this is a strategy game and the new owners are making changes, it would be nice if the managers had more control over timeout use and could use that as part of their strategy.
the game engine would not call timeouts for a team anymore. instead, managers would be given an option somewhere in settings as to how to use timeouts such as the following:
save x Timeouts for the last two minutes of a game
use a timeout when opponent scores X points in a row
call a timeout X mins Into a game - Useful for resting players at a certain junction or to make sure substitutions are available to be implemented
Etc
also, In the viewer Since more timeouts will probably be used, the viewer only pauses for 15 seconds. If both teams used all six timeouts this would only increase game time by 3 minutes.
