We Fixed The Quarterback Tackling Bug!

8/28/2021

3 Comments

 
If you've played Football Mogul for a while, you may have encountered the bug where your starting quarterback tackles the kick returner during a kickoff (?!). Or, worse, your QB is injured during the kickoff  (#$%&?!):

Quarterbacks probably shouldn't tackle people. But, more importantly, they shouldn't even be on the field during a kickoff. Either way, you'll be happy to know this bug is fixed Football Mogul 22.
Why was this happening?
Football Mogul has 22 different offensive formations, 17 defensive formations, and 9 formations used on special teams. The problem was that the Kickoff Team only listed 10 players, meaning that Football Mogul inserted player "zero" in the 11th spot. Because computers count from zero, player #0 is your starting quarterback.

Football Mogul's "Playbook Analyzer"

8/28/2021

Football Mogul 22 introduces the "Playbook Analyzer", a simple but useful tool in the Playbook Editor. Just click any playbook before loading it, and the Playbook Analyzer shows how often each formation is used in that playbook, and calculates the average number of players used at each position.

The first example below shows the "Run + Shoot" offensive playbook, used by teams like the Lions, Oilers and Falcons in the early 1990s. It features 3 or 4 wide receivers on most plays. But unlike many of today's offenses, it doesn't require a highly-rated tight end.

On the right is the "Featured FB" playbook, typified by the 1972 Miami Dolphins, which had 1000-yard rushers at both halfback and fullback.

This feature should make it easier to pick the best playbook for your team. But it should also make it easier to create and manage new custom playbooks.
