Does anyone know how you kick field goals in this game
In my game last week i had a 1st and 1 at the 1 yard line
Then a 2nd and 1 from the one yard line
Then a third and one from the 1 yard line
On fourth down my team punted the ball

Any tips on this would be great

Thanks

On the 'Orders' tab you need to tick the 'On 4th down punt or attempt a field goal' checkbox, and then select the distance you want field goals to be attempted from the dropdown (which should be based on how good your kicker is, as an average kicker is never going to make a 45-yarder for example)

You can also specify an override to the above instruction via 'Unless yards left...' (if for example you were 4th and 2 and 5yds from the endzone, you might prefer to rush rather than take the field goal)

For the 4th down setting - if you leave this setting unchecked (grayed out), then your players will always punt the ball on 4th down - no matter the field position.
If you do enable the 4th down setting, then you can set the distance at which your kicker will attempt a field goal. You can also set a special 4th down instruction that can override the field goal attempt in special occasions.
For example: if you want your players to attempt a field goal on 36 yards or less, but want your players to run the ball if the distance towards the opponents end zone is less than 20 yards on 4th and 2 (or less - so 4th and 1 will trigger the run too), then you need to setup "attempt a field goal" setting to "If distance < 40", "Unless yards left" to "<=20" and "on 4th and" to "2".
If you want to attempt a field goal each and every time on 36 yards or less, then set the "Unless yards left" to "never" in the above example.
If neither condition (field goal nor special instructions) for 4th down applies, then your players will still punt the ball.
