VSLCommish · 07-13-2006, 12:26 PM

"Fixed several FTP problems"

Yes.

We've fixed some bugs and added some sanity file checking.

markprior22 · 07-13-2006, 12:28 PM

Are we going to get another WIP build at some point? Some of these fixes and tweaks would be very helpful to a lot of people.

Does this mean all the issues in tt #2160 from this thread have been fixed?

http://www.ootpdevelopments.com/boar...d.php?t=126841

The problem wasn't just with importing error messages but moreso that the imports completely screwed up your rosters.

Not quite there yet, that bug is being worked on right now and is set to In progress.

Marc, would you mind doing like before and putting the new stuff added each day in bold print? Also, I am checking to find a phone number for John Rambo and the terminator (Cal Governor's mansion I guess) to send them to pay a little visit to the E-License folks!

Anything new on this?

This was my old post

Is the issue with 99% of Hall of Fame players are drafted in the first round of the amateur draft being looked at?

I think the scouts are too good at evaluating the amateur players.

I want more first round busts and 20th round surprises.

I can comment that I have no comment. Sorry.

Good work, keep it up.

Fixed memory leaks

Awesome!!!!!!! The other things are cool too but I'm really happy about the above ...

playball335 · 07-13-2006, 01:23 PM

Not sure if this is right place to post this request, but here goes.

Would it be possible to change something on the broadcast screen?

When looking at your pitcher in the box on the left it shows his status (health) and how many pitches he has thrown. However this doesn't tell you if he is tiring, for this you have to go to the substitution screen and look at the icon next to him. I was hoping instead of status (which is always OK) we could view a players "tiredness", much like if you view a pitcher's card before or after a game it states - 34% - Totally Exhausted.

Another option would be to only be allowed to get this specific information if you visit the mound.

Thanks,

Travis

Marc,
If the online leagues are fixed, it'd be nice to have that now. I know everyone has an agenda, but there are SEVERAL players awaiting this. 28 in my league alone.

markmcghee · 07-13-2006, 02:11 PM

I could have swore that I saw the bug which causes ootp to not track the stats acrued in the second half of a double header listed somewhere in one of the patch lists but now I don't see it anywhere. Is the fix for this on the radar at all? And how about the bug that causes the ai to plug a relieve into the spot starter role for EVERY ai controlled team and set their utilization to 20?

20 more in my league...

CharlieHustle6.12 · 07-13-2006, 02:26 PM

The "Fixed problems with notifications when controlling all team" fix is great.

Do you know if the other stuff affiliated with controlling all teams is fixed such as the scouting?

jbmagic · 07-13-2006, 02:27 PM

Any chance to add this:?

Stop sim when player is coming off of DL in the sims option when simming games out.
