Home game advantage?

Hi guys,

Like football in real life you get some crwth results. Today I beat a team 2nd in the league 2-1 at home but followed that by loosing to the team bottom of the league 1-0 which was an away game. Is there a home advantage in virtual manager?

The more the home team's perseverance exceeds that of the away team, the greater their home advantage. However, if the away team has more total perseverance than the home team, they can reduce the home team advantage or even completely eliminate it if their perseverance is really superb.

The home advantage starts at 5% (1% in cup matches) if the two teams have exactly the same total perseverance on. It rises if the home team has more perseverance than the away team and falls if the away team has the most perseverance.

If the home team has 2x (or above) as much perseverance as the away team, then the home advantage is 10%
If the away team has 2x (or above) as much perseverance as the home team, then the home advantage is 0%
It is your players' total perseverance that counts. That way, we get the effect that your players with high perseverance can inspire the less enthusiastic ones. Obviously, only those players currently on the pitch are taken into account.

The captain's perseverance is doubled, so now it becomes even more important to have a captain with good mental abilities.

In this calculation, all players in the match simulator get a base perseverance of 10. Thus, if a player has 2 perseverance, it will be counted as 12 in the match simulator. Base perseverance is added because otherwise there would be huge fluctuations in the lowest leagues where players have very low abilities. Without adding base perseverance, an otherwise insignificant difference of 1 or 2 in perseverance would have a huge effect. Adding base perseverance also gives the effect that the mental game becomes more important, the higher you advance in the leagues.
