I thought I fixed that already. In some really rare situations, when special last minute FG settings are active in the playbook, such crap could be seen.

Moving this to Bugs

Why is this a bug? I think it is a wrong setting by the manager.

You are right...


Earlier, in the test area I have seen a bug producing quite similar things, but without the kickoffs between. Should read more carefully, moving thread back to source forum

Looks like a bad playbook setting.
Even if the first try for 82 yards might make sense, because there might be a 0,1% chance of kicking a 82 yarder (which i doubt), but after that a FG doesn't make sense, once the opponent has a more than 3 points lead.

For experts question

Is Time Clock not running by field goal try in last 2 Minutes?

At least in the GFL it does not run, so FGs dont consume time

Here in this examples it is always a first down after kickoff or missed Field goal what looks a bit tricky

will be nice to hear from some american football maniacs how it works on NFL exact because this ruling is the official for Redzoneaction and i do not watched so closely the watch clock in this case happen in NFL

yep, I am only sure for kickoffs, clock starts running on the catch of the returner

On extra points there is no clock!

On field goals there IS (you can see this by watching all those game changing FG in the last seconds with time running out.) running clock after the snap.

On kick off the clock runs after first touch! So bouncing on the ground does not start the clock, but touching the ball does.
