In Game:

Changing the slider will change the projection parameter, and simultaneously rotate or oscillate the cannon. When the fire button is pressed, the ball will be launched from the direction of the cannon with the current parameters. The ball will stop as it hits the ground, and the caculated data will be displayed on the Spinbox.

Note:

Since the projectile motion value is caculated using Euler's method, It's inaccurate and will deviate from the actual result.
