Crazyness... I checked to follow AI exactly and I was going for it on 4th in some crazy situations that I did not have it set for...

1q - 7:03 - 4 & 10 from my own 24
4q - last play of game - 4 & 5 from my own 8 with the lead!

Is there some loophole in your settings or possible ordering issue that could've allowed this to happen?

We had this same prob as well, but we went for it on 4th down every time

Make sure you actually have a "punt" setting at the top if you click "follow exactly." If you don't, you will never punt.

punt needs to be at the top?

We punted appropriately all game long except in the second quarter where we never punted. I do have my settings set up to go for the first down if within 5 yards of FG range. I have that for the entire game though. I was wondering if my max FG range got screwed up in the second quarter and the game always thought we were within 5 yards of a FG. All I can think of.

I would think you don't want it on top, then you would punt every time if you have it set to "I: 4th down O: punt"

It starts at the top and goes to the bottom until it finds a match.

Nothing crazy in the 2nd quarter specific overrides then?

I have nothing in the second quarter set for 4th down except FG attempts with a bit of time left and a 210 second left in the half passing off on 1-3 downs. Not a clue. i have been going over my tactics a lot.

I also have my punt at the bottom and we punt at the bottom and we were good most of the game. i did not set my kickers FG limit, so i really think it was the game setting an inappropriate limit of the kicker.

Check box/play-by-play - we did punt Bort... I don't have anything in my offensive AI to go for it back in my own end though...

I had this problem, my team was punting fine all game winning in the 4th and ended up going for it on late 4th downs in our own territory twice in the last two minutes to lose the game. All of my go for it on 4th down options only come into play when we are losing.

I only had the punt option on general settings maybe this is the problem? it didn't go to general settings after finding no match in the 4th quarter?

I've put the punt option in all quarters so hopefully this is fixed.
