i saw here that the engine does not take height into account, than when will it change? its a pretty stupid thing if you think about it because basketball is a game who's based on height...

That's not really true. Skills have already taken height into account. So someone who is respectable in rebounding doesn't mean that they are respectable for their height, but respectable without regard of their height. So a 5'8 player with respectable rebounding probably has a 48" vertical leap with good timing, and a 7'4 player with respectable rebounding may have learned to put his arms above his head.

The practice part of the game engine also takes height into account. The 5'8 player can't improve as much as the 7'4 guy.

Small, but important, point: the shorter player won't improve as fast but can improve as much.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong here.

If they are trained the same number of seasons in inside skills, the 7'4 guy should increase his inside skills more. The smaller player could improve as much or more, if he trains longer.

So it is a practical limit, rather than an absolute limit.

And the shorter will train better in related skills? (handling, out. def, etc)
