Broken loop in 'watch highlights' mode

Walter Alston · 11-29-2018, 08:50 AM

When watching highlights, the play-by-play screen starts by telling you the situation, i.e. who's on base, how many outs, who's at bat etc. I've noticed that this setup info loops across the play-by-play screen multiple times before the actual description of the play is given. Sometimes the setup info loops indefinitely and I can't make it stop with a mouse click. Only option in this case is to exit the replay.

I haven't seen this myself. Does this happen while watching every game, or only on certain games? Either way, if you could let us know your team/league, and which games you see it with, that would help us track down what might be happening.

Yesterday I was seeing this problem, and this morning. But most of today I haven't seen it. I'll let you know if it recurs.

oops -- just saw it again. My team is New York Giants. League is Rho Omikron. In my game against the Brandon Goldeyes on June 2, the setup info looped twice before the play results were shown. This happened on every play shown in the replay.

Would it be possible for you to send over the highlights file? It should be downloaded in your data/saved_games/5bfeb...a.pt/replays folder (the long weird name in the middle will be unique for your league). If you can just send over that file directly (you may be able to attach to a post here, or if not, can upload to our server http://support.ootpdevelopments.com/...p-developments), that would help us look through and see what might be going on.

Attached (I hope) is the replays folder from a game between the New York Baseball Giants and Rochester Red Barons played on July 23.

Did you get my files? Any update? I'm still seeing this problem in highlights, to the extent that I don't watch highlights anymore. If I want to, I just start the replay and jump to the inning I want to see.

Yeah, sorry, I'll have a look tomorrow at it.

Okay, I think I figured out what happened here. This should hopefully be fixed for the next update. It's mostly related to how the page may or may not refresh, so if you just watch the highlight and don't minimize and maximize the screen, and don't click away and back (ie. through the view boxscores), then you shouldn't have this duplicating stuff as much.
