Description

This is a pretty good base for a simple pinball game. All the elements have been left draggable so you can experiment with different locations. The walls and bumpers can be duplicated if you want more things to bump in to. Sadly, it is VERY slow online. Try it downloaded and see if it works better for you there. Feel free to remix with your own designs. Just be sure to give credit. I want to thank Kevin_Karplus for making the original bouncing pinball project "Schoolhouse Pinball" so long ago. Enjoy! Technical Notes =========== The ball movement scripts in this project were done using the Point/Move blocks rather than the more usual Set X/Set Y. This complicated the gravity calculations but allowed me to use the On Edge Bounce block. Flat surface bounces only happen on the side where the direction vector is pointing. This was done intentionally so that the flippers would perform with more realism but had the unfortunate side effect that walls only bounce on one side.
