Improving fielding and direct hits - This certainly is possible

[indiansnz]

I had few days ago figured out how to get the fielders reach the ball a lot faster or get the fielders to run quicker as well as get them to hit the stumps quite often. I found it interesting that the fielders were really quite quick and could throw at the stumps more often than not. I gave it up midway as I got a little too busy and couldnt spend time on this. The only problem that I had with getting the fielders to hit the stumps was the overthrows. The ball was travelling quite a lot and I was able to sneak in quite a lot of overthrows which is not good for the game. I will try to find out what I did to get this done and pass this on to you guys to explore more.

It would be great if the fielders would stop the ball when it appears to go right past them ( or even try to stop it!).
Also, occassional misfields would add more realism.

I have not been yet able to figure out what I changed, I will write in the forum when I come to know of it. Meanwhile if you want your hits in the air not to clear the rope very often but occassionally, lower the gravity parameter to -7000 in the fast, swing, offspin and legspin file in the main directory of BLC. I tried lowering it to around -140 and it was kinda funny, the ball kept climbing to the sky, eventually was lost.
