Play by Play Problem

I play strictly PBP. I have noticed with foul balls to the left side that when a fielder goes after the ball there is no name mentioned. I have seen this quite frequently. I'm in broadcast view, not 3D.

Does it look like there should be a name but it's missing? Please post a screenshot of the exact text and that will help us track things down.

I'm not sure how to take a screen shot in PBP mode. When I touch the "prt sc" button the text disappears. And it does look like a name is missing.

Here's a foul, right side. Looks like a name missing.

Matt, that looks like one of those hardcoded foul ball situations. Not sure what triggers them. It'd be nice if they could be included in the text DB for editing.

Here are two ground balls to the Pitcher "Martin" and the ball sails to the top of the screen where the Expos logo is.

You'll have to adjust ball locations for this park. Go to the team page. Choose Team Settings. Then choose Ball Locations. It's a laborious, manual process, but there's no other way to do it.

I will check, I know how to do that. I imported all my ballparks from OOTP 16 and didn't expect anything to change. Used these parks for a full season with OOTP 16 and all was well.
