Pong-Help!!
i am trying to make a simple pong game where if you miss, you lose. I am trying to find a way of making the sprite hit the paddle so it bounces off. when i do it it just gets stuck on the paddle vibrating.
Please help!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Pong-Help!!
I had trouble with this. Here is what I would do.
<blocks>
<when green flag clicked>
<forever if> <touching[paddle]
<point in direction(((180<-><direction> ))
<move(5 )steps>
</blocks>
The point in direction blocks make the ball bounce.
The move 5 steps stops it from getting stuck on the paddle.

Dear Scratch Users,
I'm done with scratch, or at least making projects. I have made one last big game, thats both fun and teaches a lesson about water. It'd mean a lot if you gave me feedback. http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/bosox397/569201

Not so simple. It depends where the paddle is located. Use this project to help you: http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/yambanshee/371970/download
