During free agency at the bottom of the page where the teams are all listed, they are not in the draft order until the draft actually starts and the times are populated, then it puts them in proper order.

How does this interact with the old ui:



Control which positions can be moved/assigned via the new Position Change Matrix



Also the FB Dive plays and Flat Zone appear as plays that can be blocked. Does that mean they are reenabled?

Better than Blocking Plays as an admin tool would be the requirement for selecting a full 40/30 plays, and the Ai coach makes sure there is a full selection.

A minimum of one play from each personnel and secondary settings.

Maximum use of 5 times per game for any one play. Ai coach ensures, so there would be more attention to the gameplanning as opposed to letting the Ai coach select plays, which tends to be a poor selection. And we would no longer have the 10 or more times used problem along with no need for the overuse penalty.

The controls work the same way as roster requirments and salary caps.

Might as well be roster only then, custom rules would only be able to override AI until the magical 5 times called is up? I would gladly use full playbooks if there were viable plays to use, but forcing me to stop using the 10 plays that DO work, isn’t the answer.

Roster only is way too far in the other direction with games that are boring to watch.

Teams & owners that consistently win use only plays with the best averages, which narrows it down to 6 plays on defense and 15 on offense, if that. That is also much farther away from being a simulation to RL pro football. We dont have things like motion, audibles, and shifts on offense, along with shifts on defense. We cant use the long pass plays because the defenses used will not allow them, which is the reason for play diversity and use. The Elite League is a play diversity league and has demonstrated that full play selection and play use limitation works well, but not to the extent that it could be. To further the diversity, you need to also include the personnell and secondary coverages to be included in the active play selection. The Ai coaches have tendencies to overuse the GL offense for one, like on first & 10. It is also overused on defense. We compensate by zeroing out the GL personnel and use the GL by rule.

This is so much BS. Especially on defense. Most NFL teams sit in base defense and only vary their back end safeties 80% of the time or more. It's only select teams that blitz more than 20% of the time. In MFN, there only a few base defenses that work consistently so that's why they get called.
