If you launch the ball, do a for statement, spawn another ball at the balls location, set X and Y velocity, destroy the original ball, and then continue on like that wouldn't it simulate the physics of the ball, and since it is a for statement be fast without changing the physics? I dunno, that is why I am asking XD hoping Rojohound can explain how it works.

For prediction curve I created a straight line consisting of 400 segments, then bend it using the formula for distance traveled by a falling object which is 0.5*gravityAcceleration*time^2 with some minor adjustments
