Description:A port of Foobillard.

Readme:

What is it:

This is a MorphOS port of Foobillard by Florian Berger.
(foobillard.sunsute.dk).

Requirements:

MorphOS >1.4 with latest 3D drivers (3d.morphos-team.net)
powersdl.library

and probably something else i forgot.

Notes:

If You are Voodoo user and games doesn't want to start, set
screen depth of Your desktop to 16bit and try again.

If the game runs too slow, press 'r' key. It will tell the
game to use simpler reflection drawing on balls. Also reduce
resolution and ball detail.

Network code is still incomplete (it's incomplete and buggy
in original version too). Shouldn't cause problems but You
never know. If it does, please report.

Network game (not tested with MorphOS version):

* General info:
commandline network game start is not anymore available
network game should be started from within the menu.

The host and the client can of course be the same machine.
The data sent between the computers are only the shot-data,
like strength, cue offset and direction.
So if the two machines have different internal floating point
accuracy, the games might drift apart after a certain amount of time.
I'm not sure how strong this effect is in practice, cause i only tested
on similar machines.

* Start from menu:
hit <ESC> to get to the menu,
select <Network Game>/<As Host> on one computer and
<Network Game>/<Join>/<OK> on the other machine after having set the
proper IP in <Network Game>/<Join>/<IP>.
the <Network Game>/<Port> setting must be the same on both machines.
the IP of the host machine can also be set on the client machine
(the joining one), by adding hostaddr=IP-ADDR in the config file
(see below), or by passing it as commandline option:
--hostaddr=IP-ADDR
starting from menu the host sends its gamestate variables to the
client, so every clienside settings get overriden by the host
(gametype, tablesize, player names, ...)
