Hi Markus,
Not sure which problem he's referring to (whoops - rpriske replied with his issue while I was typing this), but I notice a number of little "quirks" when it comes to double-headers, most of which are cosmetic (such as the font color on your team schedule screen being only green or red for the day's results, even if you won one game and lost the other).
But one issue is pretty major and can wreak some serious havoc on AI pitching staffs.
In my league, I have "Always start highest rested starter" as the default setting for all teams. When you first advance to a day with a doubleheader, on the Scores & Schedule screen you'll usually see the most rested pitcher set to start the first game and the next highest rested pitcher set to start the second game. This is as it should be.
Sometimes you see the same pitcher set to start both games. This happens when there is no acceptably "rested" second pitcher. Usually the pitcher gets changed to somebody else when the game actually gets simulated.
But what I've noticed is that, after the first game concludes, the pitcher chosen to start the second game is always the next guy in *strict order* in the rotation, even if he just pitched yesterday! I usually change mine to the most rested guy, but the AI just leaves it as it. It's as if the AI just ignores the "start highest rested starter" setting after that first game.
That's the biggest problem I've noticed with regards to double-headers thus far. Hopefully a fix can make it in to 15.
And thanks for all the other features - looks amazing!
