Just like the title says...what happens when the LB/Secondary combination that gets "rolled" doesn't have a play of that type selected?
Example, say I set up my Defensive Plays as follows (simplified for an example):
GL: 1 Blitz 2/Man play, 1 Blitz 2+/Man play
Normal:1 Blitz 1/Man play, 1 Blitz 2/Man play, 1 Blitz 2+/Man play
Nickel: 1 Blitz 1/Man play, 1 Blitz 2/Man play
Dime: 1 Blitz 1/Man play
Quarter: 1 Blitz 2/Man play
Since I have 3 different types of plays selected (Blitz 1, Blitz 2, Blitz 2+, all Man Secondary), let's say for a certain situation I set up a game plan of:
Secondary: Man 100%
Linebackers: Blitz 1 30% / Blitz 2 40% / Blitz 2+ 30%
I
believe that (rules aside) the AI will select a defensive personnel group to match the offense's personnel group. If this results in a Normal defensive backfield, then no problem...I've got a play for each possible type. But if it's any of the other defensive personnel group, that's not the case (often because there isn't a play of each type for every personnel group in my playbook).
So let's say the offense comes out in 11 personnel so the defense matches with Nickel. Then the "die roll" for play type results in "Blitz 2+/Man". But I don't have any plays of that type for Nickel personnel.
What play (or play type) gets selected?
