TheSims 4's Toddler Stuff Pack (stuff packs being the tier of paid DLC that adds cosmetics and objects and things around a particular theme) is how I found out I have opinions about ball pool physics and ball pools as represented in games. I have frequented many a ball pool - sometimes even a ball lido - and I know that The Sims 4 is eliding many a problem with ball pools.
For one it's entirely possible to perform a ball pool bellyflop and significantly injure yourself but here it's all fun and games. Actually, I'd say it's harder to dive or jump into a ball pool and make it look like a fun experience than it is to do so and really hurt yourself. It's also impossible to confine balls to the ball pool area. Oh, and there's not a single frame of the trailer showing an adult having to clamber through a ball pool searching for and then hauling out their recalcitrant toddler. Further objections include the fact that you can't keep adults out of a children's ball pool and, somewhat relatedly, that I find it objectionable that EA seem to be taking a stand against a grown woman's right to enjoy a ball pool.
They do manage to recapture an actual argument I had with my brother over who had the right to play with a plastic dinosaur, though. (My argument was: "I'm older and I want it more" and his was "but it is literally my toy dinosaur").
Alice warned you all about the toddler update which added these wilful miniatures ages ago so if you actually downloaded it you have only yourself to blame. "Why not make the best of the situation," say EA, as paraphrased by me, "and chuck in a bit more cash to dress them up and imprison them in a ball pit?"
"The Sims 4 Toddler Stuff Pack provides a variety of adorable new outfits for you to enjoy. Whether dressed as cute little foxes, or sprightly fairies, your tot's imagination will run wild. But don't worry, clothing isn't just about play time. Your fashion-focused toddlers will enjoy a more stylish ensemble to fit their tastes, alongside new hair styles as well.
"And what's a toddler pack without new tot-sized playground equipment?! From hopping into the ball pit, to scooting down their new slide, or scuttling through colorful tunnels, there is lots of fun to be had. In fact, they can even play make-believe while watching their new play structure turn into a pirate shipwreck resting on the ocean floor, or exploring the galaxy as an astronaut - the choice is theirs. You can even invite your neighbors' toddlers over for a play date! Let loose, make new friends, and let your Sim parents increase the fun through story telling, and cooking up the tyke's favorite foods.
Anyway, Toddler Stuff will be out on 24 August. Looking at the other Sims 4 Stuff Packs it'll probably be at the 7.99 price point. If you're off to Gamescom you could also try it out a bit earlier as it's going to be on the show floor there from 22 August, otherwise maybe wait and take a peek at what some of the Sims 4 streamers do with the pack in case that takes your fancy.
Each build is available to test for up to 90 days, starting from the day the developer uploads their build. You can see how many days you have left for testing under the app name in TestFlight. TestFlight will notify you each time a new build is available and will include instructions on what you need to test. Alternatively, with TestFlight 3 or later, you can turn on automatic updates to have the latest beta builds install automatically.
When the testing period is over, you'll no longer be able to open the beta build. To install the App Store version of the app, download or purchase the app from the App Store. In-app purchases are free only during beta testing, and any in-app purchases made during testing will not carry over to App Store versions.
Note: To automatically download additional in-app content and assets in the background once a beta app is installed in iOS 16, iPadOS 16, or macOS 13, turn on Additional In-App Content in your App Store settings for iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
You can send feedback through the TestFlight app or directly from the beta app or beta App Clip by taking a screenshot, and you can report a crash after it occurs. If you were invited to test an app with a public link, you can choose not to provide your email address or other personal information to the developer. Apple will also receive all feedback you submit and will be able to tie it to your Apple ID.
If your device is running an OS earlier than iOS 13 or iPadOS 13, tap Send Beta Feedback to compose an email to the developer. The feedback email contains detailed information about the beta app and about your iOS device. You can also provide additional information, such as necessary screenshots and steps required to reproduce any issues. Your email address will be visible to the developer when you send email feedback through the TestFlight app even if you were invited through a public link.
When you take a screenshot while testing a beta app or beta App Clip, you can send the screenshot with feedback directly to the developer without leaving the app or App Clip Experience. Developers can opt out of receiving this type of feedback, so this option is only available if the developer has it enabled.
When you test beta apps or beta App Clips with TestFlight, Apple will collect and send crash logs, your personal information such as name and email address, usage information, and any feedback you submit to the developer. Information that is emailed to the developer directly is not shared with Apple. The developer is permitted to use this information only to improve their App and is not permitted to share it with a third party. Apple may use this information to improve the TestFlight app and detect and prevent fraud. For more information, visit TestFlight & Privacy.
An 8-ball foul occurs when the 8-ball comes to rest off of the pool table, when the 8-ball is pocketed in the wrong pocket or out of sequence, or when the 8-ball is pocketed while a foul occurred (i.e., shooting player pockets the 8-ball and simultaneously scratches). The game continues if the 8-ball has not been pocketed.
In Call Pocket, it is encouraged that all balls be specified along with their intended pocket. However obvious balls and their respective pockets do not have to be specified. Any bank shot (object ball to rail), kick shot (rail(s) to object ball), or combinations (2 or more balls from either group) must be called to their designated pocket, or they are considered a miss. When a player successfully pockets his/her designated object balls, they continue their inning until either a miss or a foul occurs.
My reading of this is that as long as your 8-ball went into the pocket you called it was legal. Pocketing the 8-ball isn't treated differently than pocketing any other ball in this respect. You were right, your friend is wrong.
If you call it off another ball and it goes in that pocket it's a win. All these league rules are only made up to speed up the game. Remember bars close at 1 or 2 in the morning they got to have the games finished by then. I'd stay there till 1:45 playing APA. If you didn't play ball in hand or other rules such as 8 ball going clean you could be there all night
Gameplay in 8 Ball Pool is very similar to any other pool game. Use your finger to aim the cue, and swipe it forward to hit the ball in the direction that you want. From there, you need to try and beat your opponent by following the corresponding rules - hit the striped or solid balls.
When you win games, you also earn coins. You can use those coins to buy different upgrades for your cue. In the beginning, we're talking about things like cues made out of plain wood, but soon you can add new elements to up your match-ups' style.

The game will first launch on Polygon x Immutable zkEVM chain, a platform built specifically for games, where it will be one of the first featured projects. Eyeball Pool successfully completed a 30-minute sellout mint of 4,001 genesis NFTs called Balldroids in January 2023, but those who missed out will have another shot. A white list for the Eyeball Pool expanded NFT series will open soon.
The Original 8 Ball Pool creators are Karsten Niemer and Thomas Elgaard and they worked with Jonathan Ivarsson, founder of Eyeball Games on the new game. The team came together on a vision for a blockchain-based challenger to 8 Ball Pool, which gives gamers full ownership of their assets as part of a cutting-edge gameplay.
Hoping to repeat its success in pool a decade ago, Eyeball Games designed Eyeball Pool from the ground up with its own physics engine and graphics. It has a player-vs-player mode and a range of tournament modes which include an AI skill-matching engine.
