Ok, so we have are defensive AI set like this (from top to bottom).

Defensive Outputs When:
4-5 WR's
3 WR's
I Formation
2 WR's
3rd Down/Short
2nd Down/Short

Now keep in mind those are in order of how they appear on the AI screen. Anyway, in our recent game we had a 4-3 Cover 2 Defense while there were 3 WR's on the field. The kicker is that it was a 2nd and 3rd and short situations:

Now I am under the impression that the game will read the general gameplan from top to bottom, so with 3 WR Defense as the 2nd from the top, why did it go down to the 3rd and 2nd and short situation?

Please help with this if anyone can. I am sure its something very simple that I am over looking.

Thanks.

That wasnt very clear. So to clearify...

Our 2nd and 3rd and short defenive plays, are taking precedence over our 3 WR defense plays. But the 3 WR defensive plays are higher up on the Defensive AI screen.

Hello from AA4!

What does the AI tester say when you put in those settings (time, down/distance, etc)?

Are you sure there is nothing in the 3WR input that would cause it to not trigger in that situation?

It may be a fault in the AI inputs. Maybe it matched more specifically to the settings (which could be part of the update, I hope not though). Also things you may consider is if the 3 WR input is left blank on downs/distance it could be checked down to lower inputs to find a match on down and distance.

Yea its kinda weird. It says its triggering the Nickel formation that it should in fact trigger. Although its not.

I am actually completely overhauling the defensive AI right now so I am sure if there was a flaw on this end, it will be corrected by next game.

We are focusing our defense a little better and as such needs a rehaul of the current set up is needed.

Thanks for the suggestions tho fellas.
