It's because in overtime there's no specific time left as a score wins the game.

But the overtime also ends after 15 minutes and then dice rolling decides. So it would be useful to be able to set before 1, 2, 5, 10 minutes or similar in the OT.

That's something you'd have to put in the suggestions section. I just base my overtime rules on distance to GL and yard to 1st D.

Wrong. RZA is using the good old Sudden Death rule for overtime, where both teams play until someone makes a score.

Did it change between engine version 4.30 and 4.32? Maybe you remember our discussion what happens when both teams just punt My scrimmage (that won't happen that often I guess, but if both teams were not able to score in 15 minutes of the OT).

It did not change, and it was there fvrom the beginning. If managers "abuse" the mechanics, we just stop playing the game after a few hundred snaps in overtime...but this is not like "after 15 minutes"...
