OOTP Developments Forums - View Single Post - Limited to Playing One Game Per Day, from One Dugout, Even in Commissioner Mode

I like the OOTP concept and basic interface, settings, gaming functions and flow. But it does produce some annoying, unrealistic results. I have KC, Pittsburgh and SF, all certifiable bottom dwellers in 2020, leading their respective divisions in my version of 2020, as of mid-June. I also have an insane runaway problem with CG's and SHO's. Totally out-of-hand. And there's more but just trust me.

I could somewhat correct for these problems if I could manage ANY or EVERY game from either or both dugouts. As far as I can tell, even in Commissioner mode, I am limited to playing just one game per day from one dugout (I play that game and the rest are instantly, concurrently simmed). That is a shame because I could make up for a lot of ills/sins of the game if I had a hand in deciding day to day lineups and in-game substitutions. It would also help if I could Save As the game throughout the Game and revert to a previously Saved version if errors/mistakes occurred.

These are two of the great Commissioner Mode features of Baseball Mogul, (which I may go back to if some of the key problems/shortcomings of OOTP are not addressed quickly):

1) Ability to play/manage (not sim) any/every game
2) Ability to manage from either/both dugouts

These go along way to addressing the wacky results the AI produces. KC, Pittsburgh, SF, sheesh!
