Hey all, been scouring the forums and trying different templates of bouncing but still can't seem to get the bouncing i need to work..

Scene is like this with a top and bottom wall
---------------------

---------------------

Just trying to get an actor to keep bouncing between the walls but after like 5-10sec.. it just goes to bouncing straight up and down... ugh. I do have collide attribute set to bounce against wall

I've tried messing with density, restitution, friction.. the speed i'm using is just 125.

first tried just Change Velocity / direction and speed.. will bounce straight up and down after about 10 sec.

then tried the bouncing template of adding attributes - rndangle (angle), currentvelocityofangle (angle), velocity (real), speed (real) and start (boolean)
Then used the rules of like --

any help would be great.. thx.

    ok.. i'm a noob... apparently when playing with the friction - i didn't try just 0 :)
    working like i want it to now and no need for any of the angular attributes or anything.
