Power snooker has been brought in.

I've tried to keep the rules as consistent as possible but the following rules have been changed:
- No ball in hand following a foul (this may be brought in later)
- 15 minute game time limit, 90 second power play (we can alter these after trialling)
- Game and power play times end at first shot played after the limit has been reached

Note, this is in beta (this means glitches may occur). If significant changes are made or major problems are found all ranks and stats gained may be reset

Only a minor thing, in the help section, the rules need to be updated to match the version on here

Cant wait to try it out later.

If somebody could tell me what table it has been released on?

All results will count correctly towards power snooker now. I will manually fix those that have had stats made incorrect, but I will need some time to do this.

It should alternate every break, if it isn't then something is wrong.

Also, with "Power Snooker" added to the list of tabs in the game rooms table, I think the Arcade Snooker business needs to be changed back to just Arcade. It looks far too messy and it's really not necessary.


And with it coming up as a Regular break, those breaks are still there and the highest Reg break is apparently 157...

Just wondering, are they going to be changed to Power Snooker breaks or what's happening with that..?



Aaaaaand the Power Ball and Power Zone don't have any effect on the practice table...

If I only potted the last black (might not just be that), it would let me break on the next frame. But most of the time it was alternating breaks.

Currently, it alternates who breaks, in this respect it should be the same as traditional snooker, and this seems fair as it gives both players a chance to get a decent score if they have a good break shot.

So I could just miss on the last black, the other guy pots the black, I'm back on the table for a new frame... :S

There were 40 odd breaks made in power snooker that got incorrectly attributed to regular. I will leave these as they are. If anyone wants me to alter them for their profile please send me a message on funkysnooker mail.

Love when there's only a few seconds of powerplay left and your trying to stop the white in the powerzone for extra points

did you break-off that frame though? i think it's alternating break-offs regardless of who had the last shot on the previous frame
