Improve animation.
Animation has been updated with the code demonstrated earlier. The aim is to make the animation smoother, especially on newer machines where the animation was jerky.

You may notice that the balls take longer to stop - this is deliberate. It should be similar to real life. This was the aim all along but newer machines ran the animation too fast.

Other changes
- Option to remove "nick enters game" messages.
- Initial size of game window has been improved
- Various fixes of minor problems

Thanks Nick

Thanks

since the update ive gotten loads of lag

The top left of the table keeps appearing in my dialogue window. It goes away when a new bit of text is entered by someone else or my self.Any one else getting this?

~Domi~

Nope I'm not.

Domi, what's your Java version?

upload the new java domi then should be fine

version 5 update 11

It's stopped for the time being. Did happen 3 times in a game at one point.

Were you moving te window at the time?

I have noticed it before when "reorganising" things

Nope, I know what your referring to. It's not that.There's no tiling effect or anything. Now I have bits of the screen in odd places. Will post a pic after tourny.

Ah!

Are you running desktopsidebar by any chance?

No thats just a clock download. There are no there app's appart from that running. Has been fine up until now.

Nice update Nick, thanks very much.

That's a weird one Domi! Got me thinking that has. Thanks for the screenshot

Tis odd. Has to be my end if no one else is experiencing the same thing *Pats special laptop*. Dont want to sound ungreatful. Thanks nick

Right martin said you want feedback. So FYI Im not moaning and I know you've put a lot of time into this. *clenches*....but on most of the tournys (not sure if its in normal games too) the balls stutter for a couple of seconds after the break then its smooth throught out the rest of the game. Not a little stutter either. *hides*

Actually domi, that happens me the odd time. Always has, well first happened about 2 months ago. Close and re-open and it's always been gone. Has happened on snooker to me as well.
