Pitcher and Batter Widget positioning

wickethewok · 09-18-2017, 04:59 PM

I've noticed this started recently for me, but I've seen that the Batter and Pitcher widgets are now displaying on the same side regardless of Home/Away teams. In other words, the pitcher is ALWAYS displayed on the right hand of the screen and the batter ALWAYS on the left. This is really confusing because the rest of the Away widgets are always on the left and the Home widgets on the right.

I'm attaching a screenshot showing what I mean. As you can see, the Away pitcher is on the right with the other Home widgets and the Home batter is on the left with the Away widgets. Taking a look at the Configure Game Screen settings in-game, I see that Batter Info and Pitcher Info are listed with coordinates, but I don't see how that can help my issue given that they should be different for Home/Away. HOWEVER, if I check "Automatically set up game screen", it works the way I want it to - though not with the other settings I want (eg. bigger Controls/PbP area).

I swear it didn't used to work this way - has anyone else experienced this issue?

I've only ever played the 18 version of OOTP but it's been like that since last spring. I'm guessing it's because, with the default set-up, the game resets the widget locations between each half inning so they stay together properly.

I would love to see users be able to make a default locations on these widgets. I keep losing bullpens and at times my batters box moves around and at times disappears when I want to advance by half inning or when I click on a box.
