Could it be possible to code/assing the arrow-keys on keyboard to adjust the spin?

That way you wouldn't have to move the cursor to the side of the table after every shot and that would maybe speed up the game a bit.

It would also make it easier to get the maximum spin cause finding the edge on the spinball on the side with mouse needs precision.

Funnily enough, next patch will have the ability for you to drag the spot as well as single clicking. This will allow easier to find the edge, plus easier for newbies who may be used to using dragging for spin control.

What about using the arrow keys though nick?

Dragging the spot will be useful though.

Spin position is now draggable.

Maybe we can look at using arrow keys at a later point for spin, to see if still necessary.

Seems to work well - the drag option is very smooth. Nice (minor) adjustment Nick.

When I first started I didn't think to click, only to drag as this was what all previous snooker/pool games were like.

Took me ages to work out you had to click... so nice little adjustment.
