Issue about Safeties

Post by pdozer63 »

Im running V2.1 CPU vs. CPU, USA Rules Pro...One thing I am seeing is, after a safety takes place, the team that is kicking is allowed to kick from their 30 yd line, when in fact they should be kicking from the 20 yd line. Is there a fix in the works for this?

Hi.
 
Thanks. I was not aware of this rule. www.nfl.com doesn't make any specific mention of there being a difference in kicking location, but wiki calls it out (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safety_(football_score))
 
I may be able to make this change for version 2.2
 
thanks
David

This has been corrected for 2.2
 
Upon review of the code, I was already taking this rule into account (Obviously someone told me about it a long time ago and I'd forgotten), but for some reason (probably during the process of working on other areas) removed the line of code that enabled this.
 
So anyway, that's going to be working properly again for 2.2
 
thanks
David
