Strict Pitching Rotation not working

KennyV17 · 04-29-2024, 09:59 PM

Human Managers are setting up their 5 or 6-man pitching rotations with the "Strict Order" rotation mode. However, when the games are run, the AI is skipping the fifth and six pitchers repeatedly.

My league has not started yet, but I used the Simulation Module to see how it would behave. I have run multiple sims and it consistently skips these pitchers.

I have already clicked on the "Set all teams to not allow AI Roster Changes" in League Settings --> Functions. I have also verified that the "GM-Only users are always in control of lineups and hiring (legacy mode)" option is turned on. Also, Daily Lineups are NOT selected.

I have FTP'ed my league up the FTP Support website. Name of the file is Gateway Baseball League.zip.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

The sim module does not use the same lineup AI as a regular sim would, so you wouldn't want to assume a regular sim will behave in the same way.

I'd suggest making a copy of your save files, then running a sim through the season and seeing how this looks. I suspect it will be fine, but if you see the same issues there, then do let us know.

Ah, I didn't realize the SIM module would not behave the same way. I did as you suggested and ran through a season. You are correct! No issues! Thanks Lucas!
