Default Re: OT: would anyone happen to know how to calculate bouncing a ball off an angled box?

well, the objects are 3d, but it's on a flat plane.

ok, so i figure out what angle the wall is at, then:

wall at 45 degrees, ball comming in at 90, 45-90=-45, 45+-45=0. ball coming in at 270, 45-270=-225, so, if negative 360+-225=135? doesn't work there. but, since it's hitting the bottom...angle at 225, same tilt, 225-270=-45, 225--45=270. doesn't work.

i missed something, right?

what more warning do you want?
