A couple of quick questions

[C-Bus]

With my current slider settings the computer is able to dive and snag just about everything. I mean you get like 4 or 5 gold glove diving stops a game. Is there a slider that corresponds to the ability to dive?

Second question. If I turn on the option where the catcher calls the pitches, is he using Inside Edge even if I haven't purchased it for the team or person I am pitching against?

Thanks for any ideas.

Well there are 2 sliders I being Dive Back and I like it Best at 40 and the other is Pick Off and I like this best at 25.

? #2 = No

Re: A couple of quick questions

Isn't the diveback and pickoff related to base stealing. I am referring to diving stops in the hole to take away base hits and diving catches in the outfield.

But speaking of which I know I can turn off assisted baserunning but how do I make the computer run the bases more intelligently. I double off runners all the time who have no business running on a line drive or even on a long fly ball.

AI outfielder speed lower it till u feel its just right. Anywhere from 45 to 35 is what u should mess with. That will slow down all the gold glove plays.

Lower the AI slider called "Runner Aggression" to 65. its under AI general sliders

You should try out my Offline Sliders posted here.

I don't remember what the stock sliders were at but in my set I have adjusted for total gameplay and as a matter of fact my Online Sliders are making such a roar other leagues are using them.

It's hard for me to tell you which way to go on the sliders because from the day I opened the box up to play the game I changed the sliders.

There is a slider are more in combination to make the changes your looking for just take a look at my Offline set and then give some or all of them a try.

Infielder Reaction Speed: 55 / 60 But I have speed burst at 0 and Speed burst Power
