Empty String Errors - Simming Games #222

Open antdroidx opened 1 year ago

antdroidx commented 1 year ago

There is one known bug, which seems to be a memory related issue, and for majority of users, this will never be a problem. If you simulate a series of games in DYNASTY MODE, PLEASE exit the schedule page, and to the main Dynasty menu, before you simulate more games! If you do not, it may cause an error ("EMPTY STRING") and all the schedules will go to "BYE". The entire emulator will need to be rebooted and all progress lost.

You can still simulate an entire season at once, if you press Sim Season, or Sim to a specific week. You just cannot do two unique sims in a row without first backing out of the schedule screen and re-entering it.

This seems to be possibly due to overload of memory/resources, but we are still troubleshooting the root cause. In the mean time, just read the news and standings every time you simulate, and you should be fine.

Luckily, you can reload your save and it will recover fine.

Make memory card saves and save states often. :)
