nice

you should get the interball collisions goin
why is it called may screw?

well we do have a half-ass tutorial on programming pool... Maybe you can supply some actual working code for proper collision once you get your game to work

ive got a 2d vector class that might be of use to someone making a pool game

sweet....

why is named may screw

cuz when i'm writing a program i saved many different files as i proceed cuz like suddenly a new idea comes to my mind so i save the old file and save the second file as may screw 1 or might get assed or something like that =)

and i'll make sure i check yer tutorial before i realse the final version...

Bwahahahhahahahhaaaaaaaaarrrr.... right now the idea of making a multiplayer pullgame just flashed into my mind so the next file i'll be uploading will probably be may screw 4 or 5 hehe

ok i got a little problem here Embarassed

I dunno how to play pool... =( i know that it's a 2 player game and u are supposed to put the balls in the holes and whoever finishes first wins... but i dunno when do players change turns which balls belong to which players and how many balls are there?!

go to www.yahoo.com and play in some yahoo pool... it has all the rules and stuff... you'll also get to see what you have to do

ok here's another problem the friction and the ball speed is so very unrealistic....=Ãž
I have marked the place that you should consider. the ball moves too fast when i give it a little power and move to slow when i give it alittle =(

Tony · **Posted:** Fri May 09, 2003 1:09 am

friction is relative to the speed of the moving object and thus must be a multiple as highspeed object produces more drag.

b.speed *= 0.8 works much better

though you need to have another if statment in there to stop the ball once it gets down to a decimal low enough... cuz otherwise it can keep on dividing for a long time.

Homer_simpson · **Posted:** Fri May 09, 2003 1:52 am

this is what i used

code:

if b.speed > .01 then
b.speed *= .95
else
b.speed := 0
end if

ouk now.... is it just me or is there something terribly wrong with my ball collision detection....?

Homer_simpson · **Posted:** Mon May 12, 2003 1:03 pm

Almost done!!!!!!!!!!!

Catalyst · **Posted:** Mon May 12, 2003 2:19 pm

the collisions dont seem to work right Sad

also the ball dont colidde with eachother

Homer_simpson · **Posted:** Mon May 12, 2003 3:21 pm

that's y i said almost done...
