HJL-877197: World Series home field advantage

[MizzouRah]

Can we PLEASE get the winner of the All Star game gets the home field advantage in the World Series bug fixed?

I have the option checked and at least for the past 4-6 seasons, maybe more, it always goes to the AL team. I even have the better record this year and still, I'm on the road to start the World Series.

The NL beat the AL this year 14-4 and I know for 100% fact that the option is checked.

I even have a thread on it here as well as my ticket opened in the title of this message:

PLEASE, THIS NEEDS FIXED!!!

In the meantime, I'll run a couple of test sims tonight to verify.. and if I can verify, I'll pt it.

One note, as I've said in my ticket - I am using a custom GMO schedule.

Thank you sir!

Schedules don't make any difference as they don't include playoff games.
As long as your game has an all-star game and set all-star winner as getting home field for series championship is checked (default setting). The winner should get homefield advantage.
Gone through 3 sims..1 didn't do as expected Nat. lg. won the all-star and Amer. got the championship homefield advantage and that shouldn't happen.
The other 2 Amer. lg. won all-star game and got championship homefield, but they also had best winning record. So these proved nothing...starting 4th sim now. Result..Nat. lg won all-star game and Amer. got the championship homfield adv. Should have been Nat. lg.
I'd say it's still a bug so I'll pt it..
Thanks for bringing this to our attention.

Seems to me like the AL always gets home field advantage, is that safe to say?

Thanks again!

Looks that way to me..as the last sim Washington Had the best record 107-55 and the Angels were 90-72. National lg. won the all-star and the angels had the worst record. It also did not rotate as last yr. the Amer lg. also got homefield adv. I'm logging it in pt. now. Done.

Will do, thank you.

Might take me a bit since it takes me a couple weeks to get through one season.
