uniquename 2014jan27For those who do not have the facilities or time to implement the code above, here is an image of the 'colliding coins' as they are bouncing off of the 4 walls --- AND bouncing off of each other.A few of the balls look fragmented because the screenshot caught them just as they were being erased or redrawn.It appears that LH has done away with the outlines around the colored disks in Easton's Colliding Balls.
