hey i was wondering that if you made a fantastic shot you could save it . you could have like 10 save slots and people could go on your profile and watch them. you could save your shots on practice table or a real game there can be bottom u press which saves your last shot.

tell me what you think

It's a good idea, but takes a bit of programming.

But yes, it would definitely be a good addition.

I'm no expert but that sounds like it would be difficult to write into an internet game, but yes; good idea

Without a shadow of a doubt - it's in no way rocket science - I merely pointed out that it is a good bit of work to implement.

Since game clients are already kept in sync through their respective server connections, the necessary shot data to accomplish that is necessarily already sent on the network connection. Whether or not Nick sends the entire kinetics for all the balls on the table to sync clients, or only sends the shot input and let each client simulate the outcome on their respective ends I wouldn't know, but in either case it would support shot recording.

The main issue is that you have to have the client store the shot data (at the very least the position of all balls prior to the shot as well as the cue angle and speed data) and make it accessible for later playback through the user interface somewhere.

Not a particularly difficult job by any means, just a good bit of work.
