    FSX Play-Putting Order

    Is there a setting in FSX Play to allow all players to be on the green before anyone putts? FSX 2020 allowed us all to get on the green before it went into putting mode, can't seem to find that setting on FSX Play. As we are playing it now, as each player gets on the green they then move into putting mode, not at all like real life nor like 2020. Wondering if I'm missing something?

    It’s goes to whoever is further away. Which is more true to real golf. I will say if would be a great feature to be able to skip a player so like you can do in FSX2020. Sometimes just to speed up play in FSX2020 a person will just hit two shots when they flub a pitch shot or something similar.

      Thanks for the response. I don't think I'm explaining it very well. I'll snap a couple of photos this week and ask again.

        Here's what I was trying to get at with my earlier question, it obviously needed some background. When we play, we set the putting to manual, and we have a 23' putting strip on one side of the room. When you get on the green, if you are within 23' of the cup you get to putt on the strip until holed, if you are > 23' but < 55' it's an automatic 2 putt, > 55' is a 3 putt, then a 2' put, then 3, then 2, etc.

        In FSX 2020, stroke play, putting set to manual, the program waits until everyone is on the green before it pauses the game and puts up the box where we input the number of putts, see the image labeled "FSX 2020 Putting". (You can see one end of the putting strip off to the left side of the photo) On FSX Play, the program doesn't wait for everyone, as soon as a player gets on the green, the program pauses and puts up the putting score box just for that player, see the image labeled "FSX Play Putting", you can have players still not on the green and it does this, which is totally unlike "normal" golf.

        So does anyone know if there is a setting in FSX Play that controls this? I can't seem to find anything.
