Hello again,I was coding my arknoid clone when i ran into the problem of how to correctly bounce the ball off a brick,depending on where it hits the brick,getting no answers from here!
I worked out a simple way to do this!
What I did was place 4 sprites,just single pixels, on the top bottom left and right of the ball!Make them always equal to the balls position except offset a value to position them to the sides and above and below!Then hide these sprites and do the collisions with them instead of the main ball,changing the balls direction depending on which hit what!!
Dont worry,when I have finished I will release everything,including a tutorial on the editor and all!
If you look at the code you will see what i mean, the level is built from my level editor in case your wondering where the bricks are at!!
I am hoping to release the full source to my editor and game when i have finished!If you want the media files to this then email me and i will send em!
