Hi Charles, Unfortunately, it isn't quite that simple. You have to hit the ball dead center, else you...well...you'll be swiging at nothing.

Can you tell by the sound of the ball as it travels? Maybe your position on the court and the angle of the ball as it comes to you could indicate which way it goes when you hit it? Move to the left of the ball to make it go right and vice versa? These are either conjectures on how it currently works, or suggestions on how it could work, because I haven't played the game in a heck of a long time, so don't recall the mechanics of game play. --- Laughter is the best medicine, so look around, find a dose and take it to heart. ----- Original Message ----- From: "The Addictor" <kenwdow...@neo.rr.com> To: "Gamers Discussion list" <gamers@audyssey.org> Sent: Tuesday, April 26, 2011 5:36 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Showdown online? I don't think that the computer chose the direction of the ball--it is served toward where it was going when it reached a goal.

Also another suggestion: Instead of the actual game where when you press space, the computer chooses the direction of the ball, it could be nice if we are able to choose it for our own. I would suggest 3 keys where you could choose if you want to send the ball either to the right, centtre or left.
