    Slider makers, beware of the phantom clicks.

    While in game I noticed that only in the user slider screen there are 2 invisible clicks one to the left and one to the right.

    Go ahead and try it. It's only in the user screen. Slide one of the bars all the way to the left or to the right and push the d-pad a couple more times just to test it. Now go back the opposite way one click. What happened? no noticable change, but it did in fact do something.

    Not a big issue but when in franchise mode I have found no other way to mess with the sliders than in game. Then I wrote down the clicks, exited out tried editing the sliders in the main menu and all the user clicks were off.

    Just an FYI.

      This is the reason that sliders take effect from default only after 2 clicks.

          Game Tuning on DEFAULT, if you move 1 click to the right or left, that slider you messed with will take no effect. Move it two clicks and watch it take effect, i noticed this with the errors slider. After doing 1 click i noticed NOTHING then i did another and i started seeing errors.

              This is not true. It's just a very gradual increase or decrease that takes effect with each move. So one click over would just very slightly alter things.
              But you are right about the error slider, as it doesn't do a whole lot of good just moving it over 1.

                I said about the error mostly, not about every slider which is why i brought it up in the end.

                  "Phantom Clicks"? This is exactly why sports games need to display a numerical value next to each slider. It would make everything so much easier for us slider users. NBA 2k6 had like 150 "clicks" for each slider! It took an hour just to make sure I was setting each slider correctly.
