Well it can be only "Substitions took place" or "Substitutions took place in Team A"
After all it is only a presentation thing. I think that change of more players is as common as two players swap but it is irrelevant.

You noticed these two lines, right?

Jonathan Chahal was replaced by Eric Dickinson at SF
Eric Dickinson was replaced by Jonathan Chahal at SF

That just doesn't make sense...

well it does because eric dickinson is just a dummy player im using to accomplish the two swaps. he never stays in.

No, it doesn't because the two substitutions just swap Eric in for Jonathan and then back the other way, at the same position. So the net effect is that nothing has changed.

Is last minutes plays implemented so, that if I have eg. low post offense and I'm down few points my coach will set better 3 point shooters in the game but offense will remain the same?

Would it be better that then coach would also change offense to run and gun, then it would be more efficient to shoot 3 pointers...

What happened to the team ratings? Did you guys make inside weaker or outside stronger or maybe both?

Since suddenly my team seems to change from an inside based team to an outside based team, with the same players..

Last games in the old engine my ratings were something like this.

11/14/2008; 2-3 zone, away;
inept (low) Perimeter Defense
respectable (medium) Inside Defense
respectable (high) Rebounding

Ok different GS and different enthusiasm, but the difference in GS between my inside and outside players is about the same as it's (prof/strong vs prof/strong, now all respectable ofc)

My games in the new engine;

11/21/2008; 2-3 zone, away;

average (low) Perimeter Defense
average (medium) Inside Defense
mediocre (medium) Rebounding
________

11/25/2008; mtm, home;

Perimeter Defense average (medium)
Inside Defense average (low)
Rebounding mediocre (low)
Offensive Flow inept (medium)


The change is too huge if you ask me, my whole inside game seems gone. The only part I changed in those games was switching 2 outside based SFs at SG/SF.

What happened to my rebounding?

In my last game (just played) game engine completely omitted my reserve for both PF and C spot and he didn't play any minute. Instead, another player (best position PG) who way only among dressed 12 players and wasn't assigned to any position (backups and reserves included) played one minute at PF. Why was that? (I consider this is more about feedback than bug so I'm posting it here).

Easily explained by a combination of game shape and enthusiasm, I guess.

I dont understand something of the engine. I just lost a match in a very strange way, but I know its not the point here.
Being 1 point down and 1 minute missing, after a timeout and using an inside strategy, a player tries instantly a 3 point shoot, obviusly missing it. Being so near and missing 1 minute why did they change of strategy.
And after that a player makes a foul, received a technical foul and get expulsed of the match and not because of 6 fouls. At this point of the match are the players 'feeling' the match?

in this game (8644830)

I noticed some strange thing. I played push the ball, and my opponent played run and gun, and together we got only 5 TO??

I use to have 10-15 TO last season playing PTB.
with new changes I thought that now would have more TO than before.

or am I missing something?

of course this was for BB not olano;)
