Dropbox - Screenshot 2015-02-09 22.35.32.png[DOUBLEPOST=1423485421][/DOUBLEPOST]He has slogger attribute assigned if that helps

 

[kurtkz]

Hmm, I wonder if that's messed with the stats somehow. Thanks for the info, I'll take a look at it shortly.

 

[dancingmongoose]

I'm going to get all the BBL squads up to date tonight and see if I can get another game in[DOUBLEPOST=1423486529][/DOUBLEPOST]Suggestions for more attributes

Economical/strangler - generally tight bowling, very consistent line and length, perhaps make it a little harder to time facing this bowler
Slower Ball Specialist - Bowls lots of slower balls, bowl skill increases the slower it is bowled, decreases the faster it is bowled (from some sort of equilibrium)

 

[kurtkz]

Oooh, that's a great idea. Can you think of any way to map CC database attributes to these new ones?

 

[dancingmongoose]

I can't even remember the tags CC has, other than captains and format specific contracts

 

[kurtkz]

Hehe, no worries. I'll add scripts for the attributes, but leave them unassigned for now.

 

[Dutch]

Feckin awesome how you guys are ploughing on!

 

[dancingmongoose]

One thing also, I don't think the game distinguishes between domestic and international games

@Dutch: Muchas gracias

@dancingmongoose: Hmm, you're right - I didn't separate stats for FC/List A. Hmm. Might be able to do a quick fix for it. Will check it tonight too.

Oi leave my grassy arse out of it!
I hope to get some time over the next week to give the game a good spin.....

 

[dancingmongoose]

Ok so I've done both Melbourne teams, Perth and Brisbane so I'll have another game now, against Perth this time.

 

[dancingmongoose]

Brisbane:

Burns
Forrest
Lynn
Christian
Reardon
Peirson (There are two of these guys in the db btw)
Cutting
Flintoff
Hopes
Duffield
Parry[DOUBLEPOST=1423490254][/DOUBLEPOST]I've won the toss and I'm gonna bowl[DOUBLEPOST=1423490394][/DOUBLEPOST]Carberry
Klinger
M.Marsh
S.Marsh
Voges
Whiteman
Turner
Hogg
Coulter-Nile
Muirhead
Tye

Muirhead must be rated higher than Agar, I'll have to fix that

 

[dancingmongoose]

Duffield had Carberry swinging and missing at a few, managing just a single off the final ball. Good to see the WACA has some decent bounce

@Dutch: Would be great to have another set of eyes on the game. @dancingmongoose has really helped me tons. I think everyone else just uses it to simulate matches.

@dancingmongoose: Awesome, I'm going to set up a service where people can upload their team changes and vote for them. You'll be able to pull updates via a simple interface. Shouldn't take long to do...I hope. If the crash doesn't happen again I think I'll aim for a Wednesday update.[DOUBLEPOST=1423490590][/DOUBLEPOST]Keeping track of the change requests:

- check timing on full, fast deliveries
[done] fix match leaderboard
[done] fix super fielders who always hit the stumps
[done] fix run out bug when hitting the stumps
[done] check fielders not going after balls that will go for 4
[done] ensure that field setting is retained even if new batsman is other-handed
[done] have camera follow lofted deliveries immediately
[done] check speed calculation for edges
[done] fix crash when selecting delivery after selecting bowler
- add economical & slower-ball specialist attribute scripts
- update service to allow for uploading of rosters & teams
- add interface to Launcher to vote for and download rosters & teams
- fix skin colour for players

The AI has switched on to the fact that I'm stacking the off side so they start playing across the line. Good work[DOUBLEPOST=1423490760][/DOUBLEPOST]Duffield gets Klinger edging but it's wide of Forrest at first slip and Parry (who is black?) fields at short third man to prevent any run
