[Billiards-devel] Programming experiments with Billiards

Hi!

I've come across your Billiards simulator on The Linux Game Tome,
installed it, played with it for a while and I really like it so far.

Now on to the thing I would like to achieve with Billiards.

Firstly, I would like to specify a particular initial setting:
Table with pockets, white ball at position (x_w, y_w), black ball at
position (x_b, y_b) and no other balls.

Secondly, I would like to try many different shots, i.e. set different
parameters for Sidespin, Follow, Elevation and "Shot Force". However,
instead of using the graphical interface, I would like to specify these
parameters programmatically.

Thirdly, I would like to log/capture the final coordinates of both white
and the black ball.

All in all, I would like to write a script, which would simulate many
different shots from the given initial position and log the results to a
file.

If none of the above makes sense, please say it and I'll try to explain
it better.

Can you get me some tips to get started?

Thanks,
Tadej
