Mac Version 1.0.2: GM Watch mode

Perceval · 07-07-2006, 03:38 PM

I dunno if thats a bug or not .. but the so-called "GM watch mode" appears to not work for games of my team, only for those of others. Theres simply no option for it on the schedules screen. Am i missing something, or misunderstood that feature?

I'm also puzzled by GM watch mode...Why must you click for every play. I thought the point was to watch it play through automatically.

Perceval and everyone else, I'm trying to get a little more information on this before I respond... Bear with me for a bit.

OK, I get it now.

If you want to watch another team's game, you can select the "watch" option from the Scores & Schedule page. Easy enough.

If you are a manager, and you just want to watch your OWN game without interacting, do this:

1. Manage the game and select Start Game.
2. In the options screen, set all decisions to your bench coach.
3. Uncheck the "pause after each play" button at the top of the screen.

The whole game should play out now without your intervention.

Hope this helps.

We have a rule that states that Tech Support threads wherein we have not received a response within 7 days will be closed.

This one meets this criteria, so I'm closing this.

If you want to discuss it again, just PM me with the thread link, and I'll re-open. (Don't just say "Hey, reopen my thread." I need to know the URL, thanks!)
