okay, i know that when you practice, especially for arcade you get 3 settings, full table with all colours, the table without the reds and the balls all lined up.

i thought maybe you could do something where you can select where you want to put the balls, so you could practice snookers or tougher shots by positioning where you want every or some balls from reds to black.

i have checked the forum and couldnt find anyone who has suggested it and i hope you get what i mean. i always would like to put say reds in a certain place and try harder shots and getting out of snooker. It would make practice much more benifitial.

please reply by saying whether you think it is a good or bad idea and i will answer further questions

This came up on pool a while back and I was fully supportive of it, I'd like to see it.

This idea has been mentioned countless times in various different threads.

It is a good idea, What i remember it has had good feedback in previous posts.

Ive always said myself the best way to practice is playing in a game.

also i would like, the when there all lined up in a line for it to be properly, the colours should be on the spots, and the reds should be in a line between black pink and blue,

i suggested this a while back about positioning balls. think its a great idea and cant be hard to implement. and the other small gripe i have is on the practise table being able to position the white wherever when only the colours are selected. in my opinion having the option of the colours is pointless if you are only practising potting from the d ..how often does that happen in games

wouldnt it be the same just to be able to position the ball. its not hard to do it can be done in pool and killer so its not difficult to programme or anything

well, i still think it should be something we could be able to do, and i meant if you wanted to snooker yourself with the colours too try and hit one red

Putting say the yellow in a certain position and all the other colours would give you your own personalized way of practicing. if you can't hit your ball down the side of the table maybe you could practice and if you miss there could be a button with retake or re-try or something like that

the button to retry wouldnt even be necessary just replace reset and replace them yourself

Realistically its not worth practicing getting out of snookers, when you are in game the odds on the balls being in the exact same place must be like 1million - 1

So I can't see how this would help

Also when you break in practice snooker thats just like a game you don't get the option to move the balls where you would like to, the practice table is there so you can learn to clear up and get better positional shots whilst in the pack from a normal break becuase once again the odds of having the balls in the same spot as where you would place them is nearly impossible

no, say like there a is a shot along the cushion, which does happen alot, you can practice them, or you can practice potting a ball and being able to pot the next, leaving yourself on
