8-Ball Physics needs some work

[Krenicus]

So the physics for the 8-Ball game definitely needs work. when the pointer shows it as a straight in shot and you hit with 20% strength and the target ball hits 4 inches up the rail... that's not accurate at all. Please fix this.

Did you account for Gravity Level and or Station Rotation speed? Air Humidity? Table Material Type.

Seriously though are you for reals?

Heres what I have learned. It aint a perfect but it allows me to compete. Think of Table as Football Field (either version, depending on country of origin). 50% will get you from one end to another, you need to add 10% for every 5 inches you want the ball hit by the cue. Minus 1% for every 5 degrees of angle you want the target ball to go.

Actually don't follow any of this. I flunked math in high school multiple times. Anything after fractions and Decimals I just phased out.

"that´s not accurate at all" means if i tell you to hit a ball with exactly 20% of (what..your max strenght...the max possible strenght of what wouldn´t shoot through the walls of the station..?) you could do that? i think 8 ball works perfectly because of it´s flaws. please don´t fix it

My Favourite is when they break and continue to hit balls in and then Scratch the 8 Ball (early or at the end) and then accuse me of cheating......Yeah, I stood here....I didn't even watch after you sank the first 3-4.
