The same stupid AC gives Walk-on tryouts! Topic

HD and WIS, please note that I have figured out that the same STUPID AC that scouts a player seven times, and still cannot tell me whether my recruits can dribble or pass, is the SAME STUPID COACH that conducts Walk-on tryouts for my team that already has three Centers , but only two true guards and asks the 369 point rated CENTER to join my team.  This happens virtually every time (in every world, and at every level I have ever been in) when I run out of money, and have not been able to sign a player to a position of genuine need.

I have no idea of how you program the logic, but ask the walk-on that you actually need for depth to join our team.  Perhaps the computer can look at the last recruited, and unsigned position a give you one of those.  Just a thought, but why oh why does the computer always give you a guy at the position you have no need?

They could always just leave the slot empty ....which is probably the intention.

I'm not sure what you're noticing.  Typically your walk-ons come with the position at which you have the least players.  The engine doesn't do anything to figure out where you might ACTUALLY play guys, so that can lead to issues.  It also doesn't lump positions, which is what got you here.  You had 2 guys at each position except for PF (3), so you basically were going to get a guy at random at any position other than PF.  It does sometimes seem to give some consideration to experience and/or overall rating.  If that's the case, center was the logical position for you to get a walk-on - your oldest C is a sophomore, and their OTR are substantially lower than those of the 2 guys you had at any other position.
