    not sure whats happening without looking at all the rules and such.Is the restitution 0 on both the actors?

    A quick fix would be to change its motion linear velocity x (or y depending on what direction its bouncing) to zero when it collides with the object.

    take a screen shot of the actors rules and such if you can, then we can tell you whats happeneing better

    I will take a screen shot soon... but yes the restitution is set to 0 on both actors, and i want it to slide down when it hits the actor, by doing that changing x velocity will cancel that out? thanks! I'll post a screen shot of both actors now...

    Try taking the fixed rotation out.
    Not sure if that works.
    BTW nice drawings you have in that ball and wall!

    circular shape always helps i noticed that... even with the built in platformer tutorial.. its hard to climb the steps unless the collide shape is circular..

    Yeah circular shape really did help, but also fixed rotation stopped most of the bouncing... Weird fix but i will remember it!
