close, but no, i think there should be an affect, lets say for instance you drafted and allstar potential player and he is 6,0 ft tall this will give you 3-7 guard and general skill hiddens, since you drafted the player it will show you one hidden right away, lets say it shows Gas tank then it will give a small description
this player has an unactivated hidden skill
Gas Tank: this player losses less stamina then normal
keep in mind you wont know exactly how to activate the skill but if it activates it will show that its activated, if you sell this player the new owner must have him on the roster for one season to see gas tank, but lets say you keep him and play him for one season, then a new hidden will reveal itself, lets use your example of stealing
this player has an unactivated hidden skill
Gas Tank: this player losses less stamina then normal
Pick pocket: this player has a slightly higher chance at success on steal atempts
and so every season a new hidden reveals itself, and when they dont you know that player is out of hiddens, now i said every player has 3-7 hiddens lets say by chance this allstar potential player had 4 hiddens which means you drafted him (1 hidden) and then played him for 4 seasons (3 more hidden revealed then nothing revealed in the last season because he was out of hiddens), lets say by then you maxed him and he looked like this
stats
Jump Shot 10 Jump Range 8
Perimeter Defense 12 Handling 12
Driving 9 Passing 12
Inside Shooting 6 Inside Defense 7
Rebound 8 Shot Blocking 6
Stamina 7 Free Throw 5
Experience
Activated hiddens
Gas Tank: this player losses less stamina then normal
Pick pocket: this player has a slightly higher chance at success on steal atempts
Iron Man: this player is less likely to be injured and if injured will recover faster then other players
this player has an unactivated hidden skill
Offensive Captain: this player will slightly increase offensive stats of all players on his team when he is on the court
now you have a player who you know has no bad hiddens, he is worth more then a normal allstar, but if you sell him the new manager cant see the hidden yet, he needs to spend some time with the player to see the hiddens
