BZ 1774: Double Player Still Not Fixed
While dragging a relief pitcher into the #9 position, my pressure on the drag button must have slightly wavered. Without realizing it my pitcher was placed into the #1 & #9 positions in the batting order. This problem has existed for several years!
After putting a substitute 2b in the number 1 batting slot to correct the double player, I ended up with screen#2

I'm trying to replicate this. Whenever I drag a pitcher down to the lineup section and drop him too early, he assumes the playing position of the player I dropped him on.
I assume you are dropping him on the left hand side?

BTW-FWIW, I was dragging left from the warmup area, not down from the roster area.

Ah OK. I'll give that a go and see what happens.

I just tried this and I can't reproduce it either, even moving them from the warmup area.
With a mouse, I'm fairly sure that you're either clicking it or you're not. There's really no in-between. I can drop the player into the #1 slot and immediately pick him back up again, but it won't let me move him around in the lineup once he's been placed in it. |

Game kidnapped my shortstop but cloned my pitcher to make up for it
Playing out a game. My turn to bat in the seventh. I notice that my leadoff SS has vanished from the lineup. In his place is a pitcher - not just any pitcher, but my starting pitcher, who somehow remained in his spot toward the bottom of the order as well. This was attempt #2 to play out this game (game crashed in about the sixth inning in my first attempt).
Playing with latest patched version. Here are images:

Finished game. Here is box score, which further illustrates the issue. I highlighted the cloned/kidnapped players.

Inserting Position Player as Pitcher
Down 15-0 in the 9th inning and my bullpen blown (hell, I left my starter in to die for the first 13 runs), I decided to try and put a position player in to pitch.
Well..........interesting things happened. I tried to use him as a pinch hitter in the pitcher's spot, fine. No problems there. But what happened then was REALLY odd. ..........he was ALSO substituted in for my leadoff hitter. He hit twice in a row. (screenshot 1) Then after the inning ended, I tried to substitute for the "second" Pancho Carlos (the leadoff hitter), and I couldn't. My only choice was to put him in at 2B (where the leadoff hitter played). After the game prompted me that I had a position player at pitcher (I had to click "okay" two or three times to have it go away - I assume that this is a fail-safe to prevent an accident) and started the top of the 9th. Well what ended up happening was I now had TWO Pancho Carlos's out in the field, one at pitcher, one at 2B. (screenshot 2) I got through the top of the 9th, game advances to bottom of the 9th, and now both of them are listed as playing 2B in my lineup. (screenshot 3) I know that at least in OOTP8, it happened twice where the AI put in a position player to pitch, so I know it's at least possible. I have never done it myself before today. And well, I may not again if it causes issues. |

No, I've used position players in pitching roles plenty of times without seeing this issue.
A few users have reported this behavior, but the majority of us cannot reproduce it. I don't believe that it has anything to do with using your position player as a pitcher. Which version of OOTP 9 were you using when this happened? |

I just experienced a related issue but not exactly the same.
I brought in a reliever in the bottom of 7th and wanted him to bat 6th, but strangely the drag and drop placed him 9th. At the time I thought that could have been my error. I figured I would just have to bat for him in the top of 8th then - he was due up 2nd. The leadoff man singled and I brought in my pinch-hitter, who struck out. One down, with my leadoff man up, and imagine my surprise when I see it's the pitcher I just pinch hit for, grounding into a double play. Of course I was angered and ended up not getting on base again. The box score is just weird. It looks like the game did an automatic double switch when I wanted to in the 7th, but just didn't work right. I brought in Cruz at 2B and was attempting to bring in Martinez at P 6th. Instead it brought him right into the P spot. Then it looked like it wanted to automatic double switch again, except in the middle of the inning with a pitcher who was already brought into the game. Please note I get these autodouble switch issues only when I'm "Act As" manager, not manager. |
