This is driving me crazy and I have this feeling that it is fixable with a hidden command like "shift+move or ctrl+move". Help!
Sorry in advance if the answer is somewhere in the 321 forum pages before this...
Ok, so my tactic in slot 1 is a 4-3-3 narrow. No wingers.
My tactic in slot 2 is a 5-3-2, meant for an in-match quick-change between the 2 tactics. As in: I like to change between them a lot.
The idea is that my central striker drops down a line and plays the central mid with an attacking duty (lets just say "central midfielder (attack)") while my (existing) central mid with a defensive duty ("Central midfielder (defend)") also drops one line down and now plays the central defender (/libero) of the 5. Simple, really. The 2 (vertically) central players (let's call them #10 and #6) drop down, making a 4-3-3 into a 5-3-2 - and vice versa.
But no matter how I do it, the game changes it so that when I switch between the 2, my striker jumps 2 lines down and becomes the central def/libero, while the CM changes role from defensive to attacking, but stays put. So to do my "quick change", I have to go to tactics and swap the players manually (swapping the striker now playing as DC and the MC(def) now playing as MC(att)) every single time.
Maybe that was too specific. To put it simpler, try this yourself:
In tactic slot 1, you choose the preset tactic: presets --> wing play --> 4-4-2
In tactic slot 2, you make a copy, but make both wingers inverted.
The Idea, of course, being that the 2 wingers swap places, to mix things up a bit, while everything else stays the same. And you want to do this in-game by just going to tactic 2, without visiting the tactics screen.
I just cannot make the game do that. I swap the wingers in tactic 2, but when I go back to tactic 1, they have also changed places in that tactic. (Yes, I know about the "swap positions with..." but that's not the point. They should do it when I change tactics)
In the same ballpark, I'd love to be able to change the order of players in the touchline view in-match (and other places, like in tactic screen/team selection). It could be OCD-related, but I just hate that the 3 strikers go ST(R), ST(L), STC. I want the middle guy to be in the middle - and really I'd also like the ST(L) to be first. I mean, if I have a 4-4-2, I'd love to be able to see them listed in this order: GK-DL-DCL-DCR-DR-ML-MCL-MCR-MR-STCL-STCR (and then I'd give all my left backs #2, #12, #22, #32 etc, all my DCL #3, #13 #23, all my DCR 4-14, DR 5-15-25 etc. (meaning that #35, note to self, is my 4th choice right back... and I should probably sell right back #75) But the game always wants to show me my DR first (after the keeper) except when it is totally messed up and it may be a midfielder at the very top, after the keeper, with some mids thrown in the attack.
Do I have the power to change these 2 (somewhat related) things? And how??
