I observed some odd scouting behaviour yesterday, and I'm wondering if anyone has seen it too.

Try, if you would, the following. Take a scout who isn't doing anything and assign him missions in two different nations. Report what he actually does.

(Yes, I accidentally asked my scout to do two jobs at once :o)

I can only send my scout to one nation. Stop bragging.

My scout can only scout England. He has two assignments though, England and next opposition. I dont see this as being a problem, or unrealistic.

I was going to wait to post my result so as not to influence the results, but here goes:

The scout started reporting on players in the US. Where I am not allowed to scout.

But you do live there right? Perhaps on his way to your house to hand you his reports, your scout stopped off at a few games to watch some players. I think he deserves a raise for his initiative.

It does seem quite logical to me.

You ask the impossible from your scout. He knows you're taking the pish, he takes it even further and does a pish job.

Or you really expected him to be at two places at the very same time... :p

Post this in the T&TT forum, they'll all be happy at a way to get around the AI.

You have reported this to the bugs forum though?

I haven't, Church. I only discovered it last night, and as Jordi said it's as much a PEBCAK error as a game one. I managed to feck up restarting a current search and managed to add a new one at the same time.

I don't even know if it's reproducible, unless anyone else can recreate it.


While I think of it, Is there any way to make scouting trips have an undefined ending date in 07, or is that one gone forever?

I think it's gone, apart from scout next opposition.
