NEM 26 Mar 2003 - Here is a little game I've started putting together to simulate the game of pool. I might also make it so you can play snooker or billiards, or one of the other pool variations. This is just the beginnings, as I try to get it all working. Most of the physics has been taken from Colliding Balls, with a bit extra (friction, etc) added by me. The physics I've added is not particularly true to nature, but it is reasonably realistic, and easy to calculate.

0.4 PocketPC:
Jeff Smith 2019-05-13 : Below is an online demo using CloudTk
Any suggestions, bug fixes, etc much appreciated. Please remember, though, that this is still a work in progress.
This is 8-ball pool, using the rules at the English Pool Association [L1 ] , although I haven't done much to implement those rules yet. I am going to try and create an abstract way to enter the rules, so that it can be adapted for different games easily (you can already specify the initial layout of the balls at start).
Oh, yes - almost forgot to tell you how to play: At the start click anywhere below the white line to place the cue ball. Then click on the table to take a shot - the cue ball will move towards where you clicked. The longer you hold down the mouse the more force behind the shot. If you pot the cue ball click below the line again to replace it on the table.
Known Issues
Change Log
escargo 28 Mar 2003 - I used wish-reaper to download TkPool. When I tried it, one ball moved off of the table all by itself. It did not stop at the top of the table; it just kept going. I don't know how much work it might be, but you might want to add a data dump button where a user can save the state of the game for analysis. That way I could have done a snapshot of the data as the ball moved autonomously off the table; that might simplify the process of finding out why. Just a thought.
NEM 28 Mar 2003 - Good idea. I've seen this bug a couple of times, but I thought I'd fixed it. If you see it again, press 'd' and the game will dump the state of all balls to standard output (it'll open the console window on Windows, if needed).
escargo - Where should I e-mail the log and dump files? And how about binding 1 to 9 to power?
NEM - Email them to me. Hmm, I could add key bindings for the power stuff. I'm not sure what advantage this gives over using the mouse (admittedly, it's quite hard to accurately control the power at the moment, I'm working on that).
escargo 29 Mar 2003 - What you say about a mode where there is a line drawn from the cue ball to where the cursor is; it would help setting up shots to be more accurate. (I'd really like to go further than that, with lines tangent and normal to the ball that cursor is over, but that might be helping out a bit too much.)
NEM 29 Mar 2003 - Done. If you hold down the right mouse button (button 3) a line will be drawn from the cursor to the cue ball position, so you can line up shots a bit easier. Drawing the tangent and normal lines to predict the collision is a bit harder, and I think it does make things a bit too easy! I've changed the version numbering now, as I was advancing up the version numbers a bit quickly. It will now stay 0.7.x while fixing bugs. 0.8 will happen when the scores etc work.
DKF: 31 Mar 2003 - 0.7.1 seems more inclined than 0.4 (the last version I tried) to have balls ending up overlapping (or even leaving) the table. This is annoying if it is the cueball, but virtually impossible if any other ball...
NEM: 31 Mar 2003 - Hmm.. That is disturbing. It mostly works fine on my computer. There are still a few areas where this happens. It shouldn't have got any worse since 0.4. I need to come up with a better collision detection strategy, or limit the movement per frame to allow collisions to be more accurately detected. The latter solution would probably result in an unacceptable slow-down, so a new collision detection method is needed (can't use the canvas find closest method anymore). Well, I'm going to be away from the Internet for most of the next 3 weeks, so if someone wants to contribute something in that time...
TV: 31 Mar 2003 Nice app, I at times think I'd like to hit the balls like 5 times harder, I didn't get into the cose, which is not so short to cut and paste..
DKF: 31 Mar 2003 - I've only ever seen the problem at very high speeds. Perhaps a second test should be made to see if a ball has gone outside the displayed screen; that's always an error case.
As a separate point, it'd be nice if you can only fire a shot if you click within a certain distance of the cue-ball. Right now, it's easier to do a shot right across the table than doing a shot towards something that's close to you. Real pool's the opposite in my experience. Mind you, perhaps that should be a feature that people can turn on for a game if they want...
escargo - I have also found that you can click within the cue ball itself and make the cue ball move. That hardly seems like rational behavior. I think I have also seen cases where momentum is not conserved; the cue ball will hit a ball and they both go off in the same direction. Physically that has to be wrong (until we start being able to put spin on the balls).
RS - Version 0.4 has been adapted to run fine on Windows/CE PocketPC - available from [L2 ] (7KB, 24 KB unwrapped)
DKF (10/4/03) - You can get the balls moving the same direction after a collision if the masses are not equal (and the heavier ball moves into the lighter), which I believe is the case here.
DKF (22/4/03) - I have a greatly enhanced (well, greatly tinkered with) version here[L3 ] that adds better bouncing off cushions and some knowledge of the actual rules of pool.
NEM (22/4/03) - Nice work, Donal! I'm glad someone had time to tinker with this while I'm bogged down with exams/dissertation/graduating and all those other unnecessary inconveniences ;) Almost at 1.0 level now (a few minor tweaks to UI would do it). Then, networked multi-player capabilities for 2.0?
