ball collision detection
Is there someone that would like to show me a good collision detection algorithm between two sprites (e.g. two balls) that move with a costant speed and bounce on edges? Thanks in advance

Re: ball collision detection
This one by colkadome seems to work really well...

Re: ball collision detection
Thanks a lot Paddle2See. Colkadome's project is indeed a very neat pool simulation. I'm going to see if I can modify it so to get the constant speed effect that I need.

Re: ball collision detection
I extracted the collision routine from Calkadome's project, simplified it a bit (I hope not to much) and put it in the "perfect collision detection with bounce" project (http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/s_federici/155861).
Thanks a lot for your help
