Color range of player positions

Hi there !

I hope I post this in the right place... If not, please don't send me a red card !

You can go directly to my question if you're in a hurry, but here's my situation :

Before FM15, when I wanted to have my player train in another position, I just ordered him to play that new position, and that was all, until he reached a good level on this position (Meaning having at least 15).

This year, it seems training him only is not enough. Why not, but there's a problem here : it seems the training help my player to gain a certain level in his new position (12), and I have now to make him play some match to let him become competent (15). But I don't know when it is time, since on his profile, the new position is yellow, and yellow is for 10 to 14 values.

So my question is : how can I change the range values of the color for the player's positions ? I would like to have (for example) yellow for 10-11 range, then green for 12-? range (And not yellow for 10-14 range, then green for 15-? range), in order to know when the training is no more enough and he now needs to play matchs.

This is because I want to use a player's new positions when his level at this position is as near as 15 as possible (Before FM16, I only used player who were at least 15 at a position, and this is not possible anymore with a position-trained player).

I hope you'll understand my blattering, I don't write in English this often (I'm much more a reader...)

Thanks in advance for your informations.

As far as I'm aware the position suitability range isn't something we can change, you can change the colour but not the range it applies to.

Is that because of the new FMF file format ? I remember in previous FM we could change the colors, but I don't remember if we could change the range too...

Pity, since this year, with the training which can raise a player position only up to 12 (Which is in the middle of the yellow color range), that doesn't help me... There's nothing (color change, or even a news) to tell me that the player has trained his best for a position and now has to play some match to "secure" the trained position... If it can't be 15, what about 10 then (Lower range of the yellow color) ?

You can still recolour the position icons in the normal ways, you have never been able to adjust the range the colour applies to as far as I am aware.

As far as I am aware you should get a news report stating a player has trained all he can in the position without playing, you can also still play a player when his position rating is below 12 and playing him in the position will normally increase his position rating quicker than just training on its own.

Sadly, I never had this kind of news, even for a player at 12 and trained at the position (Don't know since when he's a 12, but at least 6 months).

Do you have an idea how many matchs a player needs, to go from 12 to at least 15 ?

And what happens if I stop the training if the player is 12 ? Does the value decrease if I don't play him immediately ? And after he reaches 15, can it deceases, or does he gains definitely this position ?

Thanks for the answers...

No idea, best option is to ask in either the training or general discussion forums.
