Description of issue
For starters, disclaimer that I'm not sure if this is a gameplay issue or a database issue. Since it's about development in game, I assume it's the former. All testing conducted and being conducted in this threa in the forums, wich I am not responsable for starting, however I did help with the testing.
Due to a lack of clear explanation on how the "Dynamic" part would work appart from the "If your nation does well enough in club and international stage, it will improve as it does in real life". My part of testing was done with this explanation in mind, with Andorra and FC Andorra being World and Euro champions internationally and ranked 6, after dropping from 1st to 4th and then to 6th, and at a club level, FC Andorra was a top 5 team in the world by the year 2036 and dominating the Spanish League. Comparing the results from a save with direct influence and to a save that had no outside influence, Spain's Youth Rating stayed the same, even with FC Andorra performing above for Spains coefficients. Portugal, with no influence, on one of the sims fell in Youth Rating, on the other flowrish well above the rest. But you can check the results properly posted on the thread linked above.
The results make me conclude that either: a) It's not working as intended and therefore a bug, wich prompt reporting ; b) the dynamic part is not really influenced by the player doing stuff in game and should be random dynamic for clarity sake ; c) it's working correctly, but it's preset like some players potential on a -X where the value of X will define the save growth, wich, again, won't be dynamic and pre set by the game and we can't influence it as players; or d) Your idea of long saves for it to actually matter to lower nations with no leagues (Andorra, Liechtenstein i/e) is 60 to 70+ seasons, wich is unrealistic as hell, since I'm willing to bet that IRL F.C. Andorra sets up a decent Barcelonaesque setup, the Andorran team in 10 years would be fighting for playoffs positions, much like how fast Luxembourg rose in the ranks of international footbal in the last decade. This is not based on opinions, but there's facts such as the mentioned Luxembourg nation proving it so, as well as the Belgium NT, wich 15 years ago weren't all that much and now are sitting number 1 in the rankings.
If you recon this to not be a bug, but working as intended, could a clarification on the system actually be put in place? At the moment it's starting to look like a media stunt to hype the game and not much of a working feature.
Thanks for your time reading, other than this issue, I'm enjoying the game very much, this new match engine animations are golden, lovely stuff. Good vibes and keep up the good work
