AI fail. Dpride did this I think a couple times in the past.

built off of your AI

havent seen any stupid plays like this ever aside from personal time management changes

Does spike the ball even help? Is there a way to completely turn off spike the ball?

spikes are built into the AI manually so you don't need to spike the ball. They save a little bit of time.

I am not sure I understand. Is spike the ball something that you handle with the AI? If you have control over them. I have to wonder if there is some data to prove that they do save some time. Clearly, I haven't paid attention to a game in a while.. LOL

Spike Ball does help. However, there was a big kerfuffle a few seasons ago because someone else questioned whether they were working correctly. Me and a couple of other people compiled a list of examples showing that at the time, MORE time came off the clock between the end of a normal play and the start of a spike play, compared to the amount of time that came off the clock between the end of a normal play and the start of the next non-spike play.

The Bugs Mods looked at our data, said, "Huh. That doesn't look right," and took it to Bort. And to his credit, he did fix it fairly quickly. Kinda silly that they didn't catch it themselves a while ago though.

But yes, now that it's been fixed, you will save a few seconds by calling a spike play instead of calling a normal play. Those seconds can add up and let you run 1 or 2 extra plays at the end of the game.

I will fix it or look at it later today, no prob

I still think the QB was dazed from the hit my DT put on him the play before and he just said "Fuck it!"

Working as intended

Showtime, I did mention a few bugs in your OAI in the past. My guess is that you have leading and trailing by three reversed.

As for that game, well it is just how CoP rolls. They win the little ones.

It is my AI and while this bug in the OP was there. The one you speak of is not.
