I didn't look through this thread but can anyone tell me what step influence is?

Total Control Pitching Slider:

This one looks really interesting to me. This could make the difference to accurate walks if it is implemented correctly!

It determines how much your step (or the timing of you pulling back on the swing stick before pushing forward) influences the efficiency/power of your swing. I believe KushGamer stated that it accounts for 25% of your swing efficiency by default.

Hmm I see, i'll leave it at the default setting for now then.

The visual style of the menu's and the font reminds me of Bioshock actually
Maybe that's just me but I'm liking what I'm seeing

Last year it went in increments of 5 (ala 5-10-15 and all the way to 100), but this year it just seems to be a bar with no numbers. Pardon me for sounding stupid, but is there a way around this for people that like to use sliders? Thanks. Later

Hopefully, the numbers fade away and re-appear when adjusted.

I thought we determined the throwing speed as the bar loads up before we throw it. If you're talking about the CPU, I don't know that's adjustable.
