News stories repeating

George_Bell · 04-16-2018, 09:59 AM

In my historical replay, i see a few news stories WAY TO OFTEN.

It's 1958 now, and I've seen 3 goalies credited with being the first goalie to wear a mask in a game.

I've seen a countless number of players fracture their skull in a auto accident, and a bunch fall off their roof. Oh, and the arena being flooded, or something like that. I stopped reading that one a long time ago.

These stories are interesting and add to the game, but not at the rate I see them at. It's just silly and takes me out of the game at this point.

Something's not right there, I know the goalie mask one is definitely set to be shown only once. Sounds like that flag may not be working properly, we'll have to check on it. Let me know if it continues to happen after 1961 - there's an upper date limit on it that should prevent that.

Just a follow up on this first goalie to wear a mask story, I'm now in 1960 and have seen this story 5 times now. Twice for the same goalie....
