STs

Rather than zooming in and out and trying to determine which number/player is each position (for example the kickoff team) is there a list of who is in the play?

Also why are 'gunners' used as blockers and 'blockers' are only used for punt returns?

At this time, the best you can do is look at the depth chart overrides. Unfortunately that doesn't account for players not being on the field because of fatigue or injury. Once I get past these pesky bugs and get a few other items implemented, I want to re-visit the special teams depth chart system.

I used a (too) simple setup for ST, basically the gunners are guys who sprint downfield (which is most of the kickoff team and the outside players on the punt teams), blockers are the line blockers (field goal and punts) and rushers are players rushing the kicker or punter.
