Goalie starts question
I read the info for latest update.
About the goalies I'm not sure about one point. In Strategy/Goalie Starts you can set when your goalie will be played. In Game/Game settings you can check/uncheck 'use goalie start settings'. If you uncheck that what is used to determine goalie starts because the Goalie Start Settings will no longer be used apparently? |

If it's unchecked, it'll revert to the system that was used prior to the update.

This is when playing unemployed and in commissioner mode.

No, just the user's team.

JeffR, please explain in more detail how to use the new Goalie Features.
I am seeing the following problems with Goalie Starts... Why isn't my hot goalie, listed as the starter in Game? |

It's a tendency to select the hot goalie, not an absolute rule. The higher that priority is set, and the bigger the heat difference between goalies, the more likely the AI is to choose the hotter goalie. In this case, though, the difference is very small - Pavelec is only a 1 to Hellebuyck's 0, so that won't override the other choices (unless they were all set to 0, and even then there's a small random element.)

Hey Jeff,
Is there someway to override the head coach if you are playing a sandbox game in "GM mode"? My manager has started the same goalie 88 games in a row, and I can't seem to edit the goalie start options, or even change the goalie from the pre game screen. Or am I stuck relying on the manager to make all decisions? Thanks! |

Not possible if you're playing GM-only, but I'd really like to have a look at that save if you can upload it - that should be impossible, given the way the backup frequency setting works. (Unless the game's year is set to something very early - if it's in, say, the 1930's, the starter is supposed to play every game.)

I have exactly the same issue as Papi.

Edit: actually, it's OK, I don't need the file, I just figured out how to replicate the problem myself. It looks like GM-only mode is breaking something with the way the AI chooses the starter priorities. Last edited by JeffR; 02-13-2017 at 03:20 AM. |

Edit: Will the change go into effect during whatever the next patch is, or is there another way to fix it now? Last edited by Papi; 02-13-2017 at 06:25 PM. |
