Rotation Causes Odd Movement?

My actor (a ball) is supposed to be affected by gravity. So what I've done is set a "game.Gravity" attribute to the game with a value of 700 and have my actor accelerate downwards with it's value set to "game.Gravity". It looks fine and works well if I turn on fixed rotation for my actor. I'm trying to get my actor to look like it's rolling not just a unchanged image so I off fixed rotation. As soon as I do that, during testing my actor collides into a platform and randomly accelerates in different directions.

I'm guessing because it's rotating it's direction of up down left etc "rotates" accordingly? I don't know.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks :D

    you probably have the down acceleration relative to the actor so like you said it accelertaes whatevers forward. Change that and make it relative to scene

    So that's what went wrong. I had already set the downward acceleration relative to scene BUT didn't do so for the collisions with my spring, bouncy platform etc actors. Changed it and works fine. :)

    Thanks a lot.
