#2 is kinda nasty Brooks, I'm sure everyone knows what I mean, and this bug is more a category that includes a lot of little hiccups that happen every game.
The stat lines for each team in the boxes below each team name, updated as the game goes on, need a lot of work in the consistency category.
They are always showing nasty stuff, flipping to the wrong team side briefly, esp after change of possessions/special teams plays, sometimes my team will show the other teams player stat lines, or the numbers but the names are wrong, just for maybe a play, then they revert to the correct ones.
The yardage meters often show 0 after special teams plays before reverting back to the correct numbers.
This just doesnt look good, it gives the game an amateurish feel that it is frankly too good for at this stage. I't's just a lot of cleaning up of pointers that needs to be done, or making sure the page state is updating properly throughout games, my terminology is not entirely correct I'm sure from my limited exp and understanding of coding but hopefully that helps a little and u get the gist of what Im suggesting
I'm gonna add a couple of things of similar nature to this post, yah it's a little nitpicky but also i bet this stuff isnt a big deal to clean up and it'll just make the game more tidy to knock this junk out
3) Too often, when the 2D display gets around the goal line, its really not graphically representing what is going on very well at all. U can't tell whats a td, sometimes u look like u got tackled at the 2 and yr in, sometimes u are 3 yards deep before a touchdown is called. Unfortunately, I have a feeling yr gonna tell me this is not one to get too caught up expected a good resolution. I guess it really isnt the biggest deal, none of these features on this post really are, i just really like your game and want it to shine as brightly as it can
4) Touchdown "celebration" sounds/display inconsistent
Seems like sometimes the big "Touchdown" comes up with the crowd cheering, other times the crowd cheers for no one, some games for every td, some games seemingly random...also sometimes ill get this plain blue "Touchdown" that looks very basic/1st-draft of coding-ish instead of the fancier italic font large white TOUCHDOWN
5) Some plays it sure looks like i gained a couple yards only to be told no gain or "short gain"
there's others i need to notate more and post again about; most if not all is just little in-game stuff like this
