Status: offline 		Possibly, the last RC before the official patch....

http://www.puresim.com/PureSim2007-SetupRelease-v133_RCPatch.exe

=== 1.33 (RC2) Fixes ====

- Fix: Fixed pesky injury bug that was resulting in players healing from injuries "instantly" after a day (happened only on players NOT on the DL). Phew, this one was driving me crazy, it was a semi-random, rare issue, but has been squashed!

- Fix: Fixed issue with player's with career-ending injuries healing enough to return

- Fix: Error 9 when attempting to access roster page of a team in Sandbox mode (Related to issue with incorrectly importing a player in Sandbox mode's "Import Real Player" feature.

- Fix: Error 9 when trying to expand from 2 leagues, 20 teams 10 teams in division, to the next available progression (24 teams)

- Change: Removed 70-man rosters due to some game instability issues. This may return for PS 2008. Note: If you already have a 70-man roster it will still work moving forward, but support for creating a new 70-man config is now removed.

- Tweak: Added logging support for multiplayer associations. The way this works is all FTP commands sent by PureSim to the FTP

server are logged in the file ftp.log in the user's [puresim install folder]\psa folder. This file can prove useful

when diagnosing FTP connectivity issues in multiplayer associations.

I haven't seen it in your updates, but have you had a chance to fix the problem with the DH in which a player on the DH cannot be moved to another position on the field during the game, nor can a player be moved to the DH position?

I can swap out my DH, of course...just can't move between it like I can the other positions.

This takes away a LOT of the flexibility of having someone in that DH position.

The Designated Hitter may be used defensively, continuing to bat in the same position in the batting order, but the pitcher must then bat in the place of the substituted defensive player, unless more than one substitution is made, and the manager then must designate their spots in the batting order.

Status: offline 		Um...if a DH is being used, then the pitcher won't EVER bat (well, unless he's Dontrelle Willis and goes in as a pinch hitter!). What I was referring to was a situation such as:

My 1B is having a bad game, and my DH just happens to also play 1B. So I want to move my DH to 1B and put another position player (batter) in at DH.

The former DH (now 1B) would still hit in the same spot in the batting order, and the new DH would take the batting order position of the former 1B.

I don't belief that this is the rule. If Player A is the DH he must DH the whole game or the player who is removed from the game is replaced in the batting order by the pitcher. This is the reason you don't see this happen much. There is no double switch in the American League with the DH positiion with the pitcher or position player that does not involve having the pitcher put into the batting order and then the team gives up the usage of the DH. I live in a National League area -Milwaukee but they were AL for many years and I recall this happening a time or two.

I may be wrong on this but I am pretty sure of this rule. I remember Pete Vukovich having to bat for the Brewers because a player was injured and the manager put the DH into the position.

Status: offline 		It just happened in one of the Yankees/Red Sox games from this past weekend. ARod started at DH, but in the 9th, Bernie Williams PH for Nick Green. In the defensive half of the inning, Williams stayed in the game in RF, ARod went to 3B and Rivera was inserted in Abreu's spot, effectively a double switch. http://mlb.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/news/boxscore.jsp?gid=2006_08_20_nyamlb_bosmlb_1

There are a few peculiarities to the DH Rule (rule 6.10 of the Major League Baseball Rules):

  • The DH is optional. A team may decide to bat its pitcher and not use a designated hitter in a game where it would normally be used. There are no cases of Major League teams declining the use of a DH in a game.
  • The DH can play in the field, but once a manager decides to play him on defense, the pitcher immediately takes over the batting spot of the defensive player which the DH replaced (unless there are multiple substitutions, in which case the manager can decide where the pitcher will bat). The team then forfeits the use of the DH for the rest of the game. This happens a few times every season, and sometimes results in a pitcher being forced to bat in an AL game.
  • The DH spot is locked in the order. If the DH bats, for example, fifth in the order, no substitution can be made to move him to fourth or sixth, or anywhere else.
  • Any substitute for the DH, including pinch hitters and pinch runners are automatically considered to be the new DH, and the restrictions outlined above apply to them as well. These substitutes are listed in the boxscore as "Smith ph-dh" or "Smith pr-dh". This is how a number of AL pitchers end up with games as DH in their statistics: these are almost always the result of being used as a pinch-runner for the DH.

    I noticed that players who ride the pine while they are injured don't heal quite as fast as they do on DL.  Now that is cool!

    Status: offline     		Interesting...I've learned something about the DH rule...thanks, nomo.

    Regardless of all this though, this is still a bug in the software. (grin)

    Checking the ratings history of the top priced Free Agent Pitcher his stuff went from 72 to 50.

    Status: offline     		Not sure how this got in here (maybe because you're running 1.33).  Anyhow, this is a known import issue.  It is due to the 100 stuff guy.  Someone can help you as to what to do.  I think you have to deep six him.  Or check some recent threads, because it has happened to a number of guys.

    -At the beginning of the year the stuff returned to the correct rating.

    Status: offline     		Shaun,

    I noticed a fix for RTE #9 for expanding from 20 to 24 teams.  i am getting the same error (subscript out of range) when going from 18 to 20 teams.  I was able to expand in 1961 to 2 leagues one with 8 and one with 10, but couldn't do the 1962 expansion.  It happened after every season.  It is now 1967. 

    Couldn't post earlier since I was on vacation with no internet, but played about 7 seasons.
