Of course the insurance money should be proprotional to the salary it covers (and maybe the league as wel... higher league pays more for insurance), and oc course this amount needs to be significant.

I would prefer if it's like the drafts, where there is a certain amount you have to pay per player. This way, if someone hires a good doctor, they can rely less on insurance, while those with basic doctors can invest more just in case.
There is no reason that one will pay the same amount to get insurance for a 20K player like a 2M player.

It may suite some of the users, but that is not the point here.

I'm sure that any user will pay 5$ for insurance for a 2M$ player. This is not a BB managing desicion.

The percentage idea can be an additional feature to this concept.

Regarding the last part;
I'm not sure I got what you've meant.
Doctors tries to help with injuries, but there are injuries that takes time to recover (and some even not that).
Paying insurance and paying a doctor is paying for something totaly different.

Maybe they can put a percentage to the wage? Like 0% insurance, 20% insurance, 40% insurance. Because he has a point there though. Teams who hire good doctors would be paying insurance and hardly getting anything back.



aybe the insurance can be affected by doctors level, like real insurance predict the risk whle making an contract. But you should also consider that they like to earn money to, so you normally pay more then you get back and with the small sums of the salary i think gambling won't be so effective them.

And yes like it was said from Pini, it should depend on the value/salary of the player, since it would be ridicoulus if a 400k center would cost the same like a 5k center.

Well to put it simple. Say I have a minimal doctor and my player gets injured for 2 weeks. But if I had an exceptional doctor, that player's injury would just last throughout the game but after the game he would be okay. So this way you wouldn't get any insurance. See the relation?

If I understand you correct this time, you are speaking on WHEN the insurance should pay the insurance money, and claming that it should be only upon missing a full game.

I agree with that.

no he meant, a two week injuryy with a level 1 doctor, most likely mean a game injury with a level 6 doctor ...

So having a better doctor should reflected in the function of an insurance.

I guess that now that someone starts to wonder how that doctor works, we will soon find a "new doctor / medical care approach" thread somewhere in the suggestions forum.

I´m not sold on the insurance thing. To be honest, I´d rather see a "if a player is listed as injured when the financial update happens, only 2/3rd of his wages are accounted" rule without any insurance fee.

Zwei Dinge sind unendlich, die Dummheit und das All...

If you think of it that way then investing in your doctor is pretty much insurance. With a level 1 doctor you might get 4-5 injuries a season. With a level 5 doctor, this goes down to around 1-2 a season. If you want to have close to no injuries get a lvl 7 doctor.
