Update 20.07.23

Hi everyone,

Today's update delivers a range of new features, improvements and bug fixes to the game. Thanks again for providing valuable feedback and we hope you enjoy these latest additions. Full patch notes below:


SNOOKER

• Added break scoring in practice mode. Player can move balls, but adding / removing balls from the table or using the 'Restore' button will reset the score. Failing to hit or pot a ball or potting an illegal ball or the cue ball will also reset the score. Colours dont need to be nominated, but you must pot the first colour that the cue ball makes contact with. Practice breaks are not listed on the leaderboards.
  
  
• Fixed issue where an incorrect foul of 8 points in snooker could be awarded after switching between manual and auto ball nomination in the menus.
  

AI

• Fixed issue where AI would not perform an effective 3 cushion break off in snooker when using 'Right-to-Left' table orientation. See 'Options > Tables & Equipment > Tables > Global Settings > Table Orientation'.
  

CONTROLS

• Fixed issue where errors could occur when dragging a ball in practice mode then ESC was pressed to bring up the in-game menu.
  
  
• Red ball release button and rack balls button are no longer enabled when the in-game menu is active, to prevent potential errors.
  

AIMING

• Aiming target now has a strike through when player is required to nominate a ball or pocket before taking the shot.
  
  
• Fixed issue where cue would sometimes not rotate to target position if using the 'C' to play a shot.
  
  
• Fixed issue where clicking outside the table in 2D mode would make the aiming target appear in that position for a brief moment.
  

GRAPHICS

• Improved 2D smoke effect above table and 3D ball rendering.
  
  
• Fixed issue where arrow over ball could flicker in 3D mode when removing a ball from the table.
  
  
• Improved frame rate when AI is calculating best respot position for the cue ball.
  

CAMERAS

• Improved tracking on first person camera when replaying saved snooker breaks and speed pool games.
