More wondering how a FG try can be with time expired

When time is over no new try can be except PAT in regular time

The situation from the OP was created due crazy playbook settings of either him or his opponent.

By adding 1 second to the clock, we stop the simulation from endless loops. Of course, we should make it 0:00 in the display

Sure i do not understand the programming background

But what i see is that between the FG time elapses for 6-7 seconds

So with the second-last happening at 00:05 the last one for lineup takes only 5 seconds

If 5 seconds is within "programmed range" for such happenings then maybe is only a visual thing

If 5 seconds is not with "programmed range" for such happening then the last FG try should not even happen

Normally those palys don't consume time, so we add a certain amount of time containing a random element...the clock was > 0 secs on the try itself

The same thing happened to me in my last game:

0:-1 Fred Quintero (P) kicks the ball for the Fieldgoal, 48 yard Fieldgoal missed

Also why is he listed as P in this play? He's both K and P in my DC, but shouldn't the engine look for my K first (even though it's the same person)?

what wonder me is that we are discussing issues with the timeclock instead explaining the OP that the average FG range in NFL (with real kickers, not the shit that we use ) is about 35-45 yds

That might be true, but with a few seconds left from the 2nd quarter wouldn't you try for a FG?
