Why when you play a slow shot with lots of topspin on it the angle of your shot changes?

When you put full top spin on a ball. in real snooker you never have full control of the cueball, so its more aless right.

ive noticed that when you have full top spin and play the shot slowly the ball your attempting roles miles off target!

I haven't had this problem... maybe because all of my shots are miles off target?

I think the spin is pretty spot on... seems to be working fine with you sean_paul, your stats do not exactly suggest otherwise!

well propper extremeely realistic spin doesnt always kick in straight away, like the white could move forward a little then screw back or arch etc...

However i think that requires a more detailed graphic card thingy and im not very technical so dont quote me on that

its just natural physics just like in real life , playing top spin usually makes the tragectory angle of the object ball smaller but playing bottom spin opens up the angle of the shot much more.

yes but when you put side on the ball it doent throw the angle off, even though in the real world it does.

I have, And not only does the angle go all wrong, The cue ball also speeds up, So in general you play it low power and the object ball goes off angle and the cue ball would move as if you it it medium pace.

In real snooker it wouldn't go off angle if you played it like that, You just wouldn't be able to put as much power in the shot as you would normally, It isn't a major problem but it can be annoying at times.

Now you told it... I tried it and I confirm there's a bug there. Until then, we just need to be aware of this bug, and change our aiming in these cases

Personally i don't think it's a bug, Because it's been like that ever since i have been playing arcade snooker, It's annoying when it happens thoug but i think it's added for fun, Hene it being FUNKYsnooker

Not really a bug, just a tad annoying. How does it add fun, it makes me want to chuck my laptop off the mreat orm. ( a big mountain in wales that if you threw your laptop off it, it would break into many pieces)
