This project is a simple ball simulation created using the Pygame library in Python. The simulation features balls that are created on mouse clicks, and they move around the screen with physics-based behaviors like gravity and collision detection. The simulation runs until the user closes the window.
- Ball Creation: Balls are created at the mouse's current position when the user clicks on the screen.
- Gravity: The balls are affected by gravity, which can either pull them towards the bottom of the screen or towards the center line, depending on the mode.
- Collision Detection: The balls collide with the edges of the screen and bounce off, losing a bit of energy each time they collide.
- Ball Expiry: Each ball has a lifespan of 15 seconds, after which it disappears from the screen.
- Frame Rate Display: The script displays the current frames per second (FPS) in the terminal to help monitor performance.
- Visual Elements: A circle border is drawn in the center of the screen, and a line divides the screen horizontally in the middle.
To run this script, you'll need Python installed on your machine along with the Pygame library. If you don't have Pygame installed, you can install it using pip:
pip install pygame
