Pool

Pool © 1981 Fabris, Robert.

Pool is a computer version of the Billiards game 8-Ball. The computer will rack the balls and break. The direction of the cue ball is controlled by JX(1) and JY(1). The length of the shot is controlled by the cue stick at the right of the screen. After selecting the desired angle and length, pull the trigger TR(1) to make the shot. The direction of any other balls hit by the cue ball is controlled by KN(1). If KN(1) is at its center, the other balls will continue in the same direction as the cue ball. Turning KN(1) all the way clockwise or counterclockwise will deflect the balls 45 degrees from the path of the cue ball.
