I noticed something 'off' when I scored my epic Joe Denly double hundred. I actually assumed that because of the probability of hitting the same shot more than once, and the lines being quite thick, that it was just overwriting (so one shot would appear on top of the other). Possible that it does cease to plot them though.
Nice!! Always pleasing to earn a big century like that in true style .
Agreed, many of the ball tracks definitely cause thicker/merged plot lines or they do just simply overwrite each other, (especially if playing the same shot or shots repeatedly which certainly tends to happen more in the longer format when looking to build a solid innings & retain one's wicket). Undoubtedly, when it comes to grabbing a lot of the hard fought singles in a big test match innings many of them are frequently knocked into the same general areas from the ball respectively bowled time after time too.
It would also be almost impossible to really notice this or tell off the singles (or even boundaries at times) as they do often tend to form into tighter clusters as an innings progresses further along in the longer format. However, I don't tend to pick up anywhere near as many twos or especially threes myself on the average ground, (for obvious reasons I pick up a lot more on the larger grounds). It was immediately obvious after deliberately placing a number of twos/threes into specific areas of the field where none had been previously plotted that they just weren't being added to the big wheel graph anymore after a given point in this particular match.
I'd had my suspicions this had been ongoing for a while & I certainly can't say it's persistent in every single match too, but I was able to determine this glitch for certain in this instance.
Hope it's something that can be looked into by the devs as the wheel graph can be a very useful tool at times.
