Without looking at code, or having that particular book on hand, it sounds like you've probably got a object reference to your mouse position instead of a onetime integer value of the mouse's x,y position to start your calculations.

Been beating my head over this.  Making a version of paddle bricks (from
Rosenzweig's Advanced Lingo for Games).  No problem until I decided to make
the ball shoot on the left mouse click _and_ come from the center of the
paddle.  Once the ball is in play, I don't want it to be guided by the mouse
movement (other than rebounding, of course).

I can make the mouse shoot the ball.  I can make the ball come from the
center of the paddle.  But I can't free the ball from the movement of the
mouse after release.

Clues, anyone? Trails to follow?
