A few helpful changes this patch:
- You can accept an invite through the chat window
- Auto play for games - basically you won't need to click each game, but just turn off when you wish to stop playing
- The buttons above the game have been made higher resolution (the old ones seemed to be badly compressed). I've also removed the background colour to make it more uniform.
- Forum posts are now highlighted, when you take a particular post, or you add a new post.
I've also had a look at the 2 years of update thread. As you know I am concentrating on adding the game to other platforms, but I think 6 ball snooker and repositioning the cue ball are both very good ideas and I'm looking into adding them. Practice routines and similar are also easy to add.
One thing I'm currently not sure about is having different game formats eg lives for carom. This causes complexities with the rankings.

The buttons look alot better then the old ones. the new features you have listed above ive not tried yet but they sound alright..
Looking forward to seeing the new features your trying to implement and about the carom killer i think it will only benefit the odd few people and probably take forever to get a game as it takes ages now just for a normal game..
Cheers for spending some time on improving things looking forward to the changes..

One thing... INCREASE the amount of shots in carom, let us pick how many points it should be for a win

There was an issue with working out how the ranking would work with this, as obviously a longer game makes it more likely that the better player would win so the points won/lost would need to be different. If that can be sorted then this should be the top priority, I'm fed up of playing to 5, I want to play to 25 .

I heard that it was going to be introduced then damee pointed out the ranking thing and it got scrapped... That may just be myth and speculation though haha. Nick will probably know...

i wouldnt change the rank.. its optional if a player chooses a 15 run limit game or a 5 limit game. i bet alot of people will still pick the longer game with the rank the same..
