Your players level up at OverTime

I am not sure for the actual explanation but ratings always go up like that in overtimes.

It's because the ratings are an average on 48 minutes, that's why they are higher in OT. In the calculations I suppose they always divide by 48 instead of by the total number of minutes played...

Sounds quite easy to correct this issue …

But... why? I really like to bolster my ego with 50x better boxscore than usual due to overtime... THIS would've never happened: (66317) Don't You like big boxscore numbers and bright colours?

I like them if they are not the result of inaccurate calculations …

Come on, you know it's been an oversight from day one. Remove the constant and calculate dynamically, please.

BBB: 2 (S37 S38); Top tier: 7 (S35 S36 S37 S38 S39 S41 S63); Cup: 9 (S25 S35 S36 S37 S38 S39 S40 S41 S61)

I think it is an easy fix. Not sure if I'm the one to make the call on this though. For all I know... it could be by design...

If fixed, will anyone report a bug that overtime ratings are no longer boosted? :)

YES I WILL! ;-)
Was it here from day one? Probably yes. Does it make the game worse by any stretch? I don't think so.
My hypothetical explanation is that this could be intnetional and the aim of it was that the players try harder and the games with overtime are more intense, leading to players performing better than usual if ther is overtime. But that is just my theory/explanation.

I am so confused. IF there is indeed a division over 48 minutes then this quantity has units of performance over time. It is, like, wrong to divide the total performance "output" by 48 minutes, instead of dividing by the total game duration. It is really baffling that over 15+ years the consensus among the game maintainers for the main team stats appears to be "yeah this calculation is wrong, trivial to fix, but I like big numbers".

Let's divide by 24, so we have even larger numbers then. Or by 1.
