# Positions and preferred moves > Documentation release: **FMRTE 26** (published release). **Positions** controls where a player is comfortable on the pitch. **Preferred Moves** controls their playing tendencies, such as cutting inside or trying long shots. ## Change positional familiarity 1. Open the player's **Positions** page. 2. Choose a position, such as **Midfielder Central**. 3. Enter a value from **1 to 20**; higher means greater familiarity. Clicking a pitch position also increases its value. 4. Select **Save Changes** and check the position in Football Manager. [](https://docs.fmrte.com/img/fmrte26/players/positions.png) ## Add or remove preferred moves 1. Open **Preferred Moves**. 2. Select traits to add and clear traits to remove. 3. Select **Save Changes**. 4. Check the player's traits in Football Manager.  Choose traits that fit the player. > **INFO** **Select All** can combine conflicting tendencies. Traits influence choices during matches rather than forcing an action every time. ### Preferred moves won't save, or come back the next day Follow [the saving checks](https://docs.fmrte.com/26/help/troubleshooting.md#a-changed-value-did-not-stick) to compare the saved traits in FMRTE and Football Manager.
