1966 John O'Donoghue starts missing

cmann33 · 05-02-2016, 10:22 PM

I ran a single season league with line-ups and transaction and all settings at default. He got no starts in the replay, compared to 13 IRL. He was on the Indians' roster correctly, just no starts.

I reran the test to check for user error, and got the same result.

I didn't note anything systematic, just O'Donoghue.

I have started a league with real lineups beginning in 1901. I saw the same issue as above with any player whose last name starts with " O' "

I believe the reason is that OOTP has the player listed with a historical ID such as o'neija01 and the lineup database is expecting oneilja01.

However changing the historical ID in OOTP causes the transactions file not to work, as that seems to expect the apostrophe.

The file has been updated but apparently not yet included in a patch. I've asked Markus to look into it.

There's an American League outfielder named Jack O'Brien. In my 1901 with real lineups, he seems to be getting his playing time.

That's odd. Jack O'Brien was exactly the player which made me notice this in my game, where he was not getting the necessary starts.

This issue is fixed in the next patch.
