I am a new member of Gamesalad. I had to check out the simulation create pendulum by Gamesalad, it was wonderful. Currently in my game to make a ballistic pendulum effect.please help me how to create it.
Please see the illustration http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=File:Ballistic_pendulum.svg&page=1
Thank you so much.

Best regards,

    Im sure its possible with some math thats far more complex then I understand with the current version of GS but in all honestly to do that without all the complexities and performance drains the constrains are going to give you, You really need joints for that. Which we should be getting after the native code engine releases.

    Hi T,
    I have just upgrade to Gamesalad version 0.10. so I want to ask you the Gamesalad version 0.10 can be the ballistic pendulum?

    Thank you & regards,
    Peafone.

    Most People Are Running 0.10 So As @tenrdrmer said with complex coding maybe. Sorry, It Will Take Some Otherwise.

    I Dont Know If You Want To Do It Like This, But You Can Use The Rotate Behavior To Make It Some What Like A Pendulum Without All The Complex Coding.

    @bjandthekatz is on the right track. Here is a simulation of a ballistic pendulum:
