I want to make a pinball game, i have all other functions working like a pinball machine except for the flippers, im trying to use the physics engine (the newer 2.0 version)
but i have no idea how im going to figure this out. i want to use the left key for the left flipper and the right key for the right flipper, i cant figure it out.
Hi,
Do you have your graphics ready? background, ball, obstacles and levers/flippers?
Add the graphics to the scene, add physics behaviour to the ball, the obstacles and the flippers, and add revolute joints to your flippers to “pin” them.
Then when keys are pressed (conditions), make the flippers move (actions).
After that, it’s a matter of finding the right values (gravity, mass, velocity) to make it look realistic.
see Physics Engine 2.0 [GDevelop wiki] for details on the revolute joints and the forces.
