I wrote a similar game under contract a couple of years ago. I could've done lasers, but I decided to go with bouncing projectiles instead: http://www.kidstation.de/junior/r5u3/r5u3m16/a.html The "physics" for the bounce is really simple. The bounce-angle is just 180-(the angle that the projectile is hitting the paddle) --- John Hattan The Code Zone - Sweet Software for a Saturnine World www.thecodezone.com _______________________________________________ [email protected] To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
