Missed Field Goal resulted in a Kickoff

Good morning,

Below is an example of a glitch that was found. Here's a missed FG, and it resulted in a Kickoff. Can you please check this out?

Additionally, the AI, kept going for it on fourth down, when I was backed up deep in my own part of the field. I checked to see if I had made a mistake with my adjustments, and everything is correct, so I think the AI is making the wrong calls in these situations.

Please review when you have a moment.

Cheers,

To clarify, the play in question was a missed extra point, not a field goal.



With regards the 4th downs, check your settings for 'hurry up offense'

Hurry Up - Min remaining per score
In the 4th quarter, switch to the hurry up offense if you are down. A value of 3 will start hurry up at 3 minutes if down by 7. Hurry-up will call only pass plays and will always onside kick.In the 4th quarter, switch to the hurry up offense if you are down. Hurry up offense means you will allow as little time between plays as possible, you will go for it on fourth down unless you are too far behind and/or too deep in your own territory, and you will kick onside kicks. You will pass the ball unless you are close enough to a score that you will let the clock run to prevent your opponent from having plenty of time to counter a score. A value of 3 will start hurry up at 3 minutes if down by 1 through 7 points, and 6 minutes if down by 8 through 14, etc. Recommended values are 2-4.
