ok guys, i need help. I've read and re-read the manual on how to use the PDS 2.0, and I cannot create a play that runs correctly. I cant get the guys to the right spots, I cant get them to execute any commands, and I am just generally frustrated. The manual is confuing to me...
I'm trying to design a playbook similar to a wing-t. That system is heavily dependent upon tail motion, which is a wingback in motion at a 45 degree angle away from the LOS. I try to make this motion and then when I practice the play, instead of ending up behind the tailback (behind the QB), the wingback ends up behind the qb. In other words, he motions parallel to the LOS.
Could someone post basic handoff commands as well as dropback pass commands? Maybe some generic stuff that I can just write down and go into the PDS system and use....

on top of all of that, I cant even draw any post-snap motion...I get a message that says "too few parameters.expected 1. in procedure ProcessPlayers". It does that 2 times then kicks me out.

Part of the answer is that men in motion run parrallel to the LOS as of now you cant give them the type of motion path you discribed.

Let me see if I understand this...the game supports lateral an forward motion (arena and Canadian), but not backward?  I'll have to test this when I get home.

Well, I had that working but now it's not. I added the ability to move backward in motion on a US field quite some time ago. The private testers even showed that it worked. However, when I try it here, it's not doing it. So I'll need to check on what's going on.
