Lineup issue, in game

StyxNCa · 11-04-2006, 02:08 PM

Is the in game lineup problem going to be fixed so we can take back a lineup change before going back to the game, or isn't it? I have mentioned this any number of times yet I have yet to hear anything about it.

This isn't a bug, it's a design decision. I think the thinking behind it is that dragging a player into a slot is the same as them being announced in a real game, which makes the decision final.

If you'd like to see that aspect changed, feel free to submit a suggestion in our suggestion forum!

I submitted it there before. The problem with the way it's set up is that at times, when I try to place people in the lineup, they accidentally are put in the wrong slot so I end off replacing someone I had no intention of replacing. It's very annoying, to say the least. This is the only game I have that does it this way. I don't think this should be final until we decide to go back to the game, then it is "announced".

The other issue I have is that when someone is placed in the lineup with "-" as their initial position in the field, that "-" shows up in their fielding stats. Would it be possible to fix that as well?

I have to agree with StyxnCa. The first time I tried to insert a pinch hitter, I accidentally put him in the pitcher slot. Of course, that not only knocked my pitcher out of the game, it also wasted my pinch hitter.

As a seperate issue, even though I pulled him without his ever having thrown a pitch, he got three(!) experience as a pitcher, just for being announced. That seems a tad excessive….
