The rationale for the C makes sense.

Again, for me the algorithm may be too strict of O / D line - O line are interchangeable for the most part and should be considered as such for this.

I also think dead cap should be cleared end of the season for all whilst this is ongoing, till the functionality is resolved.

My RB's were finally allowed to play. My CB was cut for the fourth straight game sim for another rejected OL contract. I have 10 OL on the roster, I shouldn't need any more. My LDE Jones was also yet again deactivated for an OL, even though I already had 8 active with all positions doubled up and there were no warnings or anything out of the ordinary on the depth chart leading in.

No ST warnings?

My rationale for that is if you only had 8 active OL, didn't fill ST Blockers fully, that could be an issue?

No warnings. I have plenty of ST Blockers in, with currently 9 active OL (due to an injury elsewhere), and then TE's, FB's, RB's filling out spots on the bottom just in case.

Injuries make sense. I've had multiple starting OL injured while this has been happening to me as well

All the same changes happened again. Some kind of update would be really great.

Was there any change to passing between seasons? We went from arguably the best passing offence last season to almost certainly the worst this season, with essentially no changes to personnel. This nonsensical stuff gets so unbelievably frustrating.

My apologies, I had to travel to a wedding so was kind of out of pocket over the and of last week and into the weekend.

I have gone over the more detailed logs and I believe I've found the issue, or at least one that I was able to fix that resulted in the weird signing issue with warrior. Please let me know if it happens again at the next game stage. There were a few branches of logic that got into some weird loops.

I also reset all the player favor values since there have been some crazy cuts over the first part of the season.

Quick update - I've made some changes to address some issues that we've seen in the past few games. Nothing major, the main item was that an AI team (Kansas City) did something weird with the depth chart where it put a lineman in to kick field goals; also I made some tweaks to the way players are evaluated to make the engine more efficient.

Am I safe to assume that the quietness of this thread can mean that we haven't had any more wacky depth chart / roster activity?

No, it got worse for me. LG Dominguez was cut, a DE named Bowman was signed, and it decided it needed to extend contract offers to a few of my players.
I cut Bowman. Am trying to pick up Dominguez off the waiver wire again and don't know what to do about the contracts

Also for the depth chart issue:
You should work on player matrix, e.g. RB to WR -> no problem; WR to RB -> weight / speed problem, this might cause again rosters with 20 WR and no TE, FB or RB.
Maybe you could implement a limiting feature, i.e. player is not eligible for a higher weight position until he reaches at least a weight which is 5% lower than standard, e.g. RB position should be minimum weight 207 lbs.

I have continued to have problems, right up through the bye we just had. Even with the bye, my beast rookie DE was yet again deactivated for a 9th OL that I simply don't need active. It again tried (and failed) to sign another OL as well. I stopped bothering trying to resign the CB that it kept cutting on me. I made a few roster changes today for coming out of the bye week, so we'll see what happens from there.

Here is the DE that is being disallowed from playing:

Not a single snap this regular season because he has been deactivated for every single game. I expect him to be a star, but he has to eventually be allowed to hit the field. I just moved him to starting (even though he's not quite ready as an undeveloped rookie) to see if I can get him to play.
