My game, Impossible Pong, is impossible to beat w/o glitches. Now that I have an idea of what the script looks like, I would like to make it possible. The problem is, the CPU's y axis
is always EXACTLY the y axis of the ball. Is there any way to make it so that the CPU travels to the ball's y axis more slowly, so the ball can get to the wall sprite that lets the Player get points? Thanks a lot, in advance.

This should help.

I have a beatable pong game, it uses this:

when gf clicked
forever
   glide <(distancetoball) / (difficulty)> secs to x = (xpos on screen) y = (y position of ball)

a hard difficulty for a ball going 10 steps is about 550-700

Instead of

set x to ([x position v] of [ball v])

Use

glide (0.05) secs to x: ([x position v] of [ball v]) y: (y position)

Maybe you should look at some other pong projects. Like the example one!

Or you could use the old fashioned "easing" method:

when gf clicked
forever
  change x by (((mouse x) - (x position)) * ((1)/((20)-(difficulty))))
end

Just make sure to change the 20 to 1+the maximum level you want. If you don't Scratch will compute 1/0 and cause an error. sad
