[img]http://i42.tinypic.com/2agpyqh.jpg[/img] Here's what I figure I need to calculate for each flipper. The big arc is obviously the range of the flipper which is the first thing to check the green line is the face of the flipper which I need to figure out how to calculate at different flipper angles. I know the that calculating the vectors for the ball that the perpendicular from the paddle will be the vector normal and the outgoing vector angle is just the same angle from the normal as the incoming vector angle. I'm just wondering if this is what an expert would do, or if I should device a better way to check for collision and rebound angle? Thanks for your help. Loading...
