I am making a Billiards Map for StarCraft Brood War.
I am making a choice of different games available to play
current game ideas:
-Eight Ball
-Snooker
-Nine Ball
-Poker-Pool
(post any other game ideas please)
This map will utilize over 150 Locations and at least 500 triggers so it is already a big project.
Eventually I may add table size choice and cue types as well as ball spin!
Please Post any opinions on my map
Thank you,

Rantent is right this is a great idea for using Frags.
None.
Actually, it really wouldn't be a good use for frags.

I'm curious how he plans on adding physics to a starcraft map. FRAGS could be used for shooting but then what? you'd still have to figure which way the ball would go, how far will it roll, what balls it hits during its roll, and if it does hit another ball what is its new trajectory and the other balls trajectory, and if those hit any balls after that.

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically
NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.
