What stadium attributes affect HR's?
-
I understand the concept of altitude helping home runs, but does time of day or weather change things too? Are more home runs hit at night?
Along the same lines, are there stadiums other than Shippet that are good or interesting to use? I need something different.

I have wondered about time of day and month as well. I wouldn’t be surprised if it factors into the gameplay along with altitude — Plesac (or maybe DeRo) has commentary specifically about the ball jumping off the bat when it gets into the summer months.
As for the second part, I guess that depends on what you’re looking for and what your definition of “interesting” is. I like the Oak Street minor league stadium, and I also sometimes like the one that’s in the desert with crazy huge dimensions. Some of the classic stadiums are certainly “interesting” but maybe not great for RS. I like Sportsmans and I appreciate Polo but it’s hard to say I enjoy playing there outside of moments.

I just go with parks that look good. I love almost all of the old parks. I wish they were more usable online. I'm getting pretty tired of all of the minor league parks.

I like using Wagonman stadium. Not sure why either I just always smash the ball there for some reason. Shippet is scary to play at because yeah you can launch rockets but so can your opponent lol
