Bouncing off walls template?

giacomopoppi

Hi everyone, I need help finding a template showing a ball bouncing off any surface at a constant speed around the screen. I need the template which shows the change in x/y velocity so that the ball bounces off in the opposite angle to the incident angle.

Im quite sure the template "Infinite bouncing balls with constant speed" has what i need but i think it has been deleted from the arcade.

It's not easy to explain, so if you don't understand what I mean I'll try to explain it again.

Thanks,
Giacomo

I made this a while ago. It also have a system for perfectly calculate the bounce from round objects, but that last part is still a little buggy.

So you want a game where a ball infinitely bounces at the same speed?

@MarkOnTheIron Perhaps its good to include the graphic and equations from your original posting on this subject. Seeing how you solved this challenge was one of those "aha" for me!
