Open the config.txt file included. For the "best top" experience, use these settings:

| Aspect | Vanilla Cricket 07 | Stroke Variation v1.2 | |--------|--------------------|------------------------| | Shot variety | ~12 generic strokes | 30+ distinct animations | | Edge frequency | Predictable (too many/too few) | Dynamic, based on footwork & swing | | Footwork requirement | Minimal | Crucial – missing footwork causes weak contact | | Lofted shots | Always same trajectory | Varies: high parabola (six) or flat (four) | | AI batting | Repetitive, exploitable | Adaptive, sometimes aggressive | | Aspect | Vanilla Cricket 07 | Stroke Variation v1
