I don't think we are going to be eliminating the position. There are at least a few players that are currently OL and they are happy playing this position. We definitely don't want to take that away that option from them. Ideally, whatever solution we come up with allows those players to play OL and be happy about it, as well as allow new players to play that position if they so wanted to do that.
However, we definitely see an issue with the shortage of OL and the need for active ones.
Because of these above two things. I think this seems like a good solution.
1) Make better bots. Ones that scale based upon the TPE of your active Oline.
I think the criteria needs to be
1.) Actives will always be preferred bots/inactives.
2.) Current OL don't have to swap if they don't want to
3.) Having 0 active linemen isn't a complete death sentence.
And I have yet to see one Lineman say they would be upset. Every one has supported this, even a guy like Pest says he enjoys playing the position but would gladly switch.
