2. 🚫 Maximize Scout Usage by Turning Off Player Search Function 🕵️
- ✅ Turning off the player search function prevents you from immediately finding the player you want, increasing realism.
- ✅ You must go through the process of discovering and recommending players through scouts.
- ✅ If you do not set the scout dispatch period to immediate, other big clubs may sign the player first.
- ✅ The convenience of the player search function lowers the game difficulty.
Turning off the player search function helps you experience a realistic transfer market and strengthen the role of scouts.

3. 📉 Adjust Player Growth Rate by Limiting Coaching Staff Star Rating 🏋️
- ✅ Slow down player growth by limiting the star rating of the coaching staff to half of the ideal number.
- ✅ Coaches play an important role in player training and have the effect of shortening the OVR increase period.
- ✅ It is important to meet the ideal coach star rating for each position.
- ✅ The growth rate can differ by up to 2.5 times between the ideal coach star rating and 0.
| Coach Star Rating | Player Growth Rate |
|---|---|
| Ideal Number | OVR +4 ~ +5 (Season Average) |
| Half of Ideal Number | OVR +3 ~ +4 (Season Average, Approximately 20% Decrease) |
Limiting the coaching staff's star rating helps prevent excessive player growth and increases the game's difficulty.

4. 💪 Realistic Player Management with Training Plan Selection 🤕
- ✅ Focus on managing players' stamina by selecting training plans centered on 'Balance' or 'Fitness'.
- ✅ 'High Intensity' training increases the accumulation of player fatigue, inducing rotation.
- ✅ In the FC series, if stamina decreases, a negative correction is applied to the stats and the risk of injury increases.
- ✅ 'Balance' training is recommended for teams with slow stamina recovery, and 'High Intensity' training is recommended for goalkeepers.
You can experience realistic player stamina management and try various tactical changes through training plan settings.

5. 🤔 Deep Simulation Function: What is the Impact on Loan Transfers? 🤷

- ✅ It seems to affect the loan transfers of players with few opportunities to play at big clubs, but it is difficult to say for sure.
- ✅ There are rumors that turning on deep simulation increases the market value of players, but the verification results showed no special changes.
- ✅ It is recommended to use the deep simulation function with the expectation that it may have a slight impact on loan transfers.
The deep simulation function has a minimal impact, but it may be improved through future updates.
