Unit tactical feedback not displaying correctly

tomkmb · 11-14-2022, 05:08 PM

As briefly touched on in discussion in the subreddit a few days ago.

The tactical feedback system can tend to become somewhat 'clogged' when playing an NCAA sim due to the amount of filler players bloating the roster so it's hard to tell who is actually relevant to the tactic and who isnt. Following this I switched over to solely using the unit tactics screen in the hope that it would help the issue. I've played 20+ hours now with this method and I can say that the unit tactics screen is still letting some players slip through the net and show in the tactical feedback section even if they are not on the line that is currently selected. It happens for both forwards and defence.

I think it would be super useful if there were an option for only players who were dressed to be considered for the tactical feedback to mitigate this issue in both the NCAA where there is a larger roster size and a high percentage of those guys wont play but also in the NHL where the last two spots on the roster are not usually guys that would have a large bearing on the tactical decisions anyways, failing that just having the unit setting show exclusively players on that selected unit would really help too

Loving the game so far and can't wait for Wednesdays stream!

Yeah, something isn't working quite correctly on the units view, we're looking at it. Switching away from the tactical setting and back to it seems to correct it.

I'm not sure I want to include only dressed players, that would e.g. hide from the user that some of his benched guys would be a better fit for the tactic. But maybe we can do some colour-coding or other visual indicator for the non-dressed players.
