Help with ball rolling mechanic please!

I am trying to figure out a way to make a ball roll by the touch of your finger. Something like skeeball where the ball rolls based on the speed of the finger "throwing" it and at what direction the finger pushes it. Is this possible?

Yeah, it is. Look up a swipe tutorial for information. It's complicated though, and I don't really get the math either!

Good luck and hope this helps!

Can anyone explain the math?

avastudios

Guess not.

I still have yet to get a complete answer on this question. How do you program an actor that you can swipe in any direction, not just right, left, up and down but diagonally if wanted?

There is a cookbook video on grabbing and throwing an actor this is what you want.
