trying to make a pinball type game have the ball falling have the flipers they also catch the ball but im a little lost in how to make it flick it back up without it just bounceing off the flipper wile its not in a moveing state
im thinking some form of boolian
if key pressed then send ball up and increase speed depending on downward verlocity but im a little lost with how to achive this

Code: Select all

if(collision_on==1)
{
angle=direction(actor1.x, actor1.y, actor2.x, actor2.y)+180;
directional_velocity=10;
}

and while the ball thouch the flipper

Code: Select all

collision_on=1;
