Hi, your nSpire pool game is a really great game that I love, and since you haven't posted about it in a while I was wondering if there have been any updates to it? I love the game and an update with AI or any other improvements would be great!

Hello !

Thank you for this feedback !
Yes I had to stop the development of this game because of my very busy school year. But now that I'm recently on hollidays (ans that next year should be less time consuming ) I should continue some calculator project :
* first I plan to finish the release of ABA Logique Nspire for the OS 3.2 that I started last november ! (this a program about boolean algebra)
* then I will continue Pool Nspire ! I stopped progressing since end of august. I was indeed making an AI ! And improving the physics to make it more accurate.

So if you want, I can give you an unpublished version where the AI is playing against itself !
The rules are even implemented !
In this version I was also trying out a new version of the physics engine but there are impressive bugs when many balls hit at the same time, as it often does at the beginning... ^^ But this engine is more accurate so the AI is better with this one ! I'll have to improve it though.

Currently the AI can enter a ball according the rules, using combos of n balls ! This work already pretty well !
But when the AI can't enter a ball this way, (it can't think with bounces on the bords yet) so when it doesn't know what to do, it just shoot very hard in a random direction !
(so the AI can sometime be very strong and very stupid the next move ^^ but this will be improved obviously)

So yeah, have fun, even if you can only stare at the game on this version !
