Same batter coming the plate over and over again.
I'm done some further testing with a throw-away league, and here is what I found so far.
Make sure you are in Broadcast View
1. Start with one-pitch mode.
2. When the play result is on the screen (the play-by-play is finished), open up a player's screen by clicking on his name on the field or in the line-up box. You want to get to his actual page, not just the pop-up box.
3. When you come back to game, it's almost guaranteed that something weird will happen, such as the same batter still being at the plate even though he just reached base or made an out, or he is at the plate in the game window but the play-by-play text refers to the next batter in the lineup.
Now switch to Webcast View or 3-D View and repeat.
I can't get the bug to reveal itself in either of this views. When I click on a player's name to bring up his page, the game moves to the next batter in the lineup-- just as it is supposed to.
It would be nice if someone could repeat this test and tell us the results.
Some more information:
1. I'm using a Macbook Pro, with OS 10.10.3. Does this bug show up for users with MS-Windows?
2. I changed my Trackpad settings from 'tap' to 'click' and saw no change in OOTP's behavior.
3. I turned off the Player Popup boxes and saw no effect (the bug shows up in Broadcast View whether the Popup boxes are on or off).
4. I can 'activate' the bug for both a team that I control and a team controlled by the AI--in Broadcast View.
5. You will get similar weird results in Broadcast View if you pitch-by-pitch mode.
For now, it appears the safest thing to do is AVOID THE BROADCAST VIEW if you are playing out your games. Use the Webcast View or the 3-D View. But again, someone should confirm.
Thanks.
