Overrides

Does anyone know if the overrides are working? My changes are not saving and I would like to use the overrides to help dictate formations.

Please let me know, if so, how do you save in the override section?

It should save as you make the changes but might not if there is a network connection issue perhaps? Try making a change, changing the formation and then changing it back to see if it stuck (it reloads from the server each time you change the formation)

Thank you. Nothing is being saved in any leagues. Also, I have read messages that are still highlighted and believe these two issues may be linked.

I will try changing formations and reading my messages from another computer. Perhaps this will jump start the server into saving the changes.

I'll keep u posted.

Overrides still don't work and I would really like them to. I'm sick of watching my team line up in goal line formation and get stuffed on our own 30 on 2nd and 9.

Overrides have nothing to do with what plays are called, rather which players are on the field when a particular formation is used. If you're sick of goal line plays on 2nd and 9, that's a game planning issue. I almost never use goal line formations ever for that very reason.

Yeah I’m in a roster only league should have mentioned that. So the distance and field position selections actually have nothing to do with using that formation in those situations?

In roster only, play calling is random and there is nothing you can do about it, because you can change the "roster only", hence the name. I tried roster only once and absolutely hated it.

There's an AI coach philosophy that has a gameplan/player weights/team needs for each coach build. Your HC runs a pass offense, but there are misc. settings as well not available in roster only leagues that change the formations in different situations pending yardage, time and score. All that said its quite conservitive most of the time. Hence a goalline run on 2nd and 9.
