Market & Fan Interest Calculator
New Features
Fan Interest & Loyalty Calculator (New Tool!)
- Calculate realistic fan interest changes based on team performance, market size, and fan loyalty.
- Includes win percentage impact over the last 5 seasons.
- Postseason success factors in properly – multiple championships, division titles, and playoff appearances now contribute cumulatively.
- Expansion & relocation boosts added, giving a 2-3 year stability window for new teams.
- Market size influence helps larger markets retain interest better, while small markets suffer sharper declines after bad seasons.
- Dynamic variability added to prevent static outcomes – even similar win profiles can yield different results.
- Fan loyalty is now recalculated based on long-term consistency instead of being a fixed number.
Market Size Calculator Updates
- The market size system now scales from 1-20 (matching OOTP’s in-game system).
- City data expanded to include historical market shifts based on different eras (1950, 1980, 2025).
- More cities added, making it easier to estimate market size for custom leagues.
Improvements & Fixes
- Improved UI/UX with more intuitive layout for inputs & results.
- Better handling of extreme cases (e.g., teams with multiple consecutive 100-loss seasons vs. dynasties).
- More realistic postseason weighting – a single playoff appearance isn’t equal to sustained success.
- Corrected calculations for multi-year title wins (previously only applied one title bonus).
- Minor tweaks to Solo DFS & DFS AI mode for smoother performance.
What’s Next?
- Historical trend tracking: Let users input multiple years and get a projected fan interest curve.
- League-wide market simulator: Predict long-term franchise viability across markets.
- Expansion draft assistant: Help users determine realistic player pools for expansion teams.
The Roto Fantasy Mod I originally tried to work has been deprecated as of v. 1.5, it wasn't working how I intended and the new models work far more immersively.
