Help!
I need help making a slope sensor that makes you slide down a hill! It needs to detect slopes of all angles, because your hill will rotate!

Re: Help!
Ouch, that seems complicated... I'm having trouble picturing it. Can you explain a bit more, and maybe give a picture?
Hang on, I'll ask someone who's an awesome programmer (RHY3756547) to take a look at this.

Here is a slope detecting engine, if you don't consider yourself to be a very good Scratcher, then I wouldn't attempt this, but otherwise, go ahead!

That's pretty interesting... I used a similar method in my Line Wars game...
If you combined that with my perfect platformer base then you'd have a nice effect. Just swap the type of Slope detection I guess...
But yeah - that system is a bit complex if you don't understand trigonometry.
