Also, is there a way that you can force X amount of time in between waves? A lot of Owners and CFOs (myself included) like to stay up and watch their sales for the first wave, then adjust them for the second wave, but during the playoffs the two waves were nearly back-to-back. I think someone said it was only about 2 minutes. Even if you could space it out to, say, 10 minutes, that would be really super helpful.

No, not really. I need it to finish as quickly as possible to move on to the next thing to process.




Also it will be unfair for Owners/CFO which has rollover in bad time (3am, mid of work day, etc...)

Its unfortunate but I understand how it works. Likely something we just cant do on the DB 'live'.

At least getting more passes increase the odds of selling out, which is the important bit. The reason for the suggestion wasn't to give folks lots of chances to play with their prices to dial things in as much as it was to ensure that they could sell out their stadium at the same prices they set for regular season and sold out every game because they had more time to sell tickets.

If we combine this with some sort of pre-game addition to Concessions so that unsold seats are sold automatically at the 'expected or 3/4 expected values then there would be a safety net, and the away team not able to make more money on jumbotron than the home team on tickets and concessions.

Since the concessions is calculated based on the performance of the game etc, we know its done while processing the games, so would that be too hard to add a fill in of the final seats at expected/three quarters expected?

Ok I really should drive home now.

That Output menu looks very clean now.

Any word about the Conference ST Punter = 0 bug yet?

No updates on blocking?

Is there any work being done to improve the problems there?

Are packages likely to make it out of testing for S11?

I am not sure but my guess is yes. Bort likes them and from what I have seen of the screenshots etc, it was a fairly non-ontrusive inset into the AI pages. It doesn't cause balance issues and we're hopefully going to have many more plays to manage so they'll be needed.

Any way we can get a bit more details on the special teams stuff? I know it's preliminary, but I'm curious...and already volunteered to know the shit out of it for a slowbuild team.

Has there been any mention of a code review against rushing QB's?

At this moment, no, nothing major. Bort has started slowly adding "vision cones" to some positions as he develops new stuff though, so maybe, just maybe, it won't be too far off for the O-line, which I feel like could help things a lot.

It's Norse's stuff, so I'll ask him if it's ok to post it here.

No, not really. It's one of those things that everyone is thinking about, but it's kinda sitting on the backburner at the moment.

As long as it's on the board.

►Talk about possibly getting rid of rolling and just letting people assign the initial points. Everyone uses scripts to get the roll they want now anyways, so there's little point in all of that wasted server strain.







Any more on this yet..just wondering if it is going to happen and if so how soon
