Def. Pass Interference Pens

On version 5.0.7

Looks like no penalty yardage is being given on pass interference calls but the auto first down is. I've seen two instances of it so far in a couple of games.

====

Just a quick thumbs up for the changes to the gameplay screen. I like to call my plays a lot of the times and it's much nicer to play that way in the current version versus last year's.

====

Just an add-on to this one.

It looks like what is happening is that most of those passes with DPI are incomplete, so the yardage of the penalty is being set to 0 to reflect the result of the play.

Probably need to choose the yardline where the receiver was when the pass was caught/missed and calculate the penalty yardage from that.

============

Actually that's not what's happening. I just had a DPI on a completed pass and the dialog said

Def. Pass Intereference on Kyle Dugger (NE) for 0 yards.
Play result was 37 yards. Accept.

Looks like it always says 0 yards whether the pass is completed or not.

Just another little penalty related issue. Defensive penalty at 4:58 on a 2nd & 5 should have resulted in a 1st down, but the following play got run without any down and distance.

5:11 1st and 10 Ari - 26 Pass by Hundley, B. to Williams, M. falls incomplete. ARI 0 - MIA 14
4:58 2nd and 10 Ari - 26 Miami Penalty on Grugier-Hill, K.: Too many men on the field. ARI 0 - MIA 14
4:58 2nd and 5 Ari - 31 Miami Penalty on Frazier, K.: Neutral Zone Infraction. ARI 0 - MIA 14
4:58 --- Ari - 36 Pass by Hundley, B., complete to Johnson, K. for 7 yds. Tackle by Van Noy, K.. First Down!
