How to use:
---------------------
- Click on the board to join the game. You will be sent 2 objects (basketball and HUD).

- You must admit the attach for the game to work. With the 'Jose Lobo' experience active on the land the attach is done automatically.

- A second player can join the game (names will appear on the board).

- Clicking again on the board starts the game. If there is only one player joined only the PRACTICE mode will be available, in which you have some time to score points.

- When 2 players are joined to the game, there are 2 modes available:

- FIGHT: players have a predetermined time (configurable by the owner) to score points, both players throw the ball at the same time.

- TURNS: players take turns shooting (the number of shots is also configurable).

- Baskets are evaluated according to the shooting distance:
> distance less than 2m is considered too close and gives zero points.
> distance from 2 to 6m gives 2 points.
> distance of more than 6m gives 3 points.

- It is not possible to shoot from more than 10m due to technical limitations (the player is warned).

- To make the shot you must be in first person mode. It is recommended to stay in first person for the whole duration of the game.

- In the HUD the distance to the basket is indicated at every moment. The player can move and turn before each shot.

- The angle of the shot is controlled with the crosshair that appears in first person mode.

- The strength of the shot depends on how long the mouse is held down (on the HUD a bar will go up to indicate the strength of the shot). When the mouse is released the ball is launched.

-----------------
Configuration
-----------------
The owner of the object can use the SETUP menu to set some values::

- TIME: Duration of the games

- SHOTS: Number of shots for the turn-based games

- PHYSICS : The default mode is DETAILED, the baskets are calculated with high precision. However occasionally the SL physics may fail (you will notice that the ball have clearly entered but the points are not counted), in this case you can activate the BASIC mode: there will be some wrongly counted shots but still the game is perfectly playable. This problem is fixed only after a region reset.

------------
Extras
------------
The following are provided:
- A score board for track best players scores.
- A score board for track top match winners (for 2 players game mode).
- A object that launch a helper video showing the gameplay.
- A support pole for the basketball backboard (although you can put it without the pole on any wall).

Have fun !
