Home Field Advantage

Is a home field advantage built into the game? Does high attendance help a home team's performance? Still trying to figure out some of the nuances. Thanks.

Yes, and yes - although the influence is slight. In long term testing it averages out to about a 55/45 for wins and losses.

Thanks. Other than winning, is there anything else we can do to boost attendance? Also, does weather impact a game? If so, can we get a glimpse of forecasted weather so that we can game plan accordingly? Thanks again.

Winning is the only influence on attendance. For weather forecast, that will be part of a game preview which I hope to get implemented soon.
