Part II

1) There seems to be a quirk in the substitution pattern. My starting PF was taken out for normal rest I assume(no foul trouble or injuries), instead of subbing in the backup PF, the coach brought in the backup PG. No injuries or foul trouble for my backup PF either. Also, the one time my backup PF was subbed in, he was subbed out and replaced by the backup PG again for no reason. He had just come in and had no fouls. My backup PF ended up playing only 1 min. One thing to note is that I had no 3rd player(reserve) on the PF depth chart. I was playing follow DC strictly.

2) A minor thing...after a steal or violation, the ball gets turned back over way too quickly. For instance, at 8:05 in the 1st quarter, I committed a violation and the next second they committed an offensive foul.

That's it

to help me sort this out.. could you tell me who the players were and what game you are talking about?

is your backup PG actually a good PF?

Game(553126)

Starting PF is D. Blevins, Backup PF is K. Salazar, and backup PG is R. Hannah

I guess he could be an average PF and maybe even better then my current backup PF. He is much better at the PG position though. I had strictly follow depth chart too. Maybe the coach is trying to tell me something?

no i think that we need to make the strict in strict depth chart stricter...

this will be like the 3rd time we've turned that factor up... but oh well... up it goes.

(1) that happen exactly because you didn't send a complete depth chart. I had the same problem last season in a few games, and then the BB's explained to me that you always need to send a complete depth chart. What happens is that when u leave a blank on the DC, the coach tries to fill it up with the best guy for that position that he can find on the bench. In this case was your backup PG.

No bugs here. Just remember eveyron, always send a complete DC. if you want only 2 or one guy to play a cetain position, then repeat his name on the DC. (ex: same guy listed as starting PG, backup PG and reserve PG, means he will play the whole 48 min unless he gets into foul trouble or injuried).

(2) I've seen this problem too. I think the problem is actually on the offensive foul. I noticed them happening way to quickly.

It didn't happen too many times in this game (twice?) so wasn't a big deal.

now I was not talking about the back-to-back turnovers (haven't seen them anymore lately, which is good). What I was talking about is how quick (during an offense attack) an offensive foul happens. Sometimes we see a team get a rebound, or steal a ball, or what ever, and then imeadiately after someone does an offensive foul... I think that in real life offensive fouls still on the defensive court don't happen very often, specially when a guy gets a rebound and some other guy commits an ofensive foul 1 second after. Just a minor bug i think, not happening so often, not so important.

I got a better one for you, though.

My starting line up was not correct in my game today. My set up (as it can be seen now when i go set up the team for the next game) shows that I assigned Ralfo Leal as starting PF and as backup PF, and Tarcísio Nansk as the reserve PF.

I always play "Strictly Follow Death Chart".

However my evil little coach decided to start Tarcísio Nansk (the reserve).

(I believe the bug might have something to do with the fact that my evil little coach believes that Nansk should play when I use Motion. However, I need Ralfo's rebounding, so I can't accept that. In this game Tarcísio got 36 minutes and Ralfo only 12, so I got beaten on rebounds by 50-26. I only won the game because my guards kick ass and hit 17-26 three-pointers)

actually i'd disagree.. though we don't have fast break commentary most offensive fouls happen in transition.

not starting the right people is indeed a serious bug.. we will look into this. i'd love to hear other games where this has happened to assist us in verifying and tracking it down.
