Retired fighters as coaches

Suggestion: Retired fighters as coaches

Suggestions Description: Make it possible to convert your fighters into coaches. This is mainly for roleplaying purposes and letting players keep their favourites around. But it could also let you use them if we add a feature like cornermen or specialist training. So don't be too harsh on their coaching attributes. Maybe give the player a pool of points to distribute based on number of fights they had. I don't think it should be linked to current skill level as that may have declined from their peak. But the BJJ max level should be limited by their belt level. The same could be done for other primaries but would require the game to track historic max level for them too. Let ex-fighter coaches keep an avatar (could maybe even spawn a new market for avatars of older guys?).

Pros:

• Roleplaying and sentimentality
• Has possible future game mechanic use like cornermen

Cons:

•

I should add also that it would be cool if you could hire any retired fighter as a coach, not just your own. Except the ones that went to Bahamas I suppose. I think it could be nice if the majority (maybe even all?) of gym coaches are made up of actual ex fighters. You would of course always have the first opportunity to hire your own ex fighters as you can retire them directly to coaching.
