Wacky yard calculations.

Post by Sonny »

On my own 49 yard line I punt it down to the opponent's 1 yard line where there is no runback. The play description says punt of 8 yards return 0 yards. Well at least the 0 yard return was correct. The next play of the opponent started correctly at their 1 yard line.

Sonny,

Moving this to support since it's a bug report. This should be easy enough to find and fix, thank you.

Regards,

We know there is some needed work with the post play summary. I make mention of it in the readme file. However we felt that the occasional inaccuracy of that summary was not enough to hold up release as long as the game itself was correct. And I believe you are saying that the game is correct?

Thanks.

Yep, the game is correct. Just the summary is wrong.

P.S. the pass falls incomplete - tackle by so-and-so gets on my nerves. It is either incomplete or a sack - not both. Not a gameplay problem just a reporting problem.
