Something like that, I just wanted those balls to _really_ bounce.

I don't know yet. I have a bad habit of getting really excited of 
something and then leaving it halfway. But I hope I can make this a 
quality macro library so that it can be useful in other scenes as well - 
at least to me.

I implemented a simple adaptive stepping just a minute ago. I have two 
settings: min_stepping and max_stepping (the number of intervals between 
frames). The min_stepping is used normally between frames and if a 
collision is detected then it switches to max_stepping. It really 
speeded things up without losing accuracy. I tried also with a lot 
stronger gravity but now some of the balls are lying motionless on the 
planes - I have a bug! I'll post more examples later when I fix those bugs.
