As I already posted in the bugs forum, a big bug was revealed which turned on empty depth chart prevention code for both teams if either set a empty lineup. This is a big problem and renders much of the testing findings problematic if not unusable, but the bigger problem is that it really affected the PL match results and made PL matches very unpredictable.

I am very sorry for this bug, I take full responsibility. As I said in the bugs forum, we had to test is somehow, and we chose PL matches exactly because these kind of situations can arise. Imagine what would happen if we chose to use scrimmages...

Again, my apologies for the bug everyone, I think I fixed it now but we still need to test that.

LCD - totally empty - 12 players in roster

48, 53, 53, 43, 46, 5, 10, 7, 0,
3 x no play

Minute distribution should be different?

@darkonza: We didn't change the CPDC substitution strategy, it is as it always was - imperfect.

@codemasters: tight games always result in starters playing a lot of minutes. LCD + blank lineup should be equal to LCD + full lineup set, and considering this was a tight game, the minutes match.

Thanks for clarification!
I have never used LCD with full lineup set so cannot argue on that

Todays games had some unexpected effects again:

(75247829) Set my lineup like this (just checked it by loading the lineup in a new game):

LCD, all positions empty, only starting SG was selected: R. Geugelin / - / -

S5 from play-by-play:
POS Starting-Five
PG R. Geugelin
SG H. Brockmann
SF G. Quellmelz
PF T. Harjans
C S. Hirschvogl

Geugelin played 46 mins at PG. So the coach again has overridden my choice. This contradicts your posting (259887.83) especially the sentence
When it kicks in, only the one already set starter position (if it is set at all) is kept in the recalculation of the depth chart.


--------

Utopia team: (75235419)

LCD, all positions empty, only starting PG was selected:S. MacKechnie / - / -

S5 from play-by-play:
POS Starting-Five
PG G. Sutherland
SG G. Miljković
SF B. Penkov
PF G. Marasco
C P. Buchwald

The same mistake / bug as in the other game. MacKechnie played 7 mins as SF, Sutherland played 42 mins at PG.

Yes, seems like the set position is also overridden. I'll check if I can find a cause.

@Others: I would like to have some feedback on LCD+completely empty lineup, if possible. Thanks.

empty lineup, LCD, substitutions seem to be normal. It was a tight game so the starters played nearly all the time cause my backups suck - at least most of them.
