Hard Pitches

[c7srh]

I've searched the forum, and wondered if anyone had solved the issue of hard pitches creating too high an extra bounce?

but why do you want this thing removed! we all have seen such high deliveries even in real cricket so why not here? its up to the bowlers to reduce the speed when bowling short!

Because in real cricket the bloody keeper can catch it :drinks

Exactlly, perhaps when we get the default field editor I can put the keeper on the boundary rope !

Sadly, keeper and bowler aren't included but you can put a slip right behind him.

You could try editing these values but I think it's been tried already...

Here the bloody keeper lets go balls around his waist and shin...its not the pitch that has the problem lets try solving the keeper problem! that would be a more wholesome solution to it!

Yeah, but if we can't fix the keeper the next best thing is to work around the problem :drinks

I am afraid editing the values Colin has posted will not affect the bounce of the ball off the pitch. The 'hardness' value in this case refers to the bounce of the ball in the outfield

So can you offer anymore advice on the "pitch bounce"?

I did say I thought it had been tried already...
I've no other ideas unfortunately...
