Arkanoid game: friction problem between a ball and a rig

Development Programming & Scripting Blueprint

Hello everyone!

I m trying to make simple arkanoid game but i found a problem. When i move a rig (when ball hits this rig) this rig doesnt influence on ball’s angle direction (im telling about friction which should influence on direction angle). I was tried projectile movement but there are no any settings for “angle influence” (or i dont understand what is going on in this component). Now i think to make ball movement on tick and take rig speed before hitting and after to change ball direction angle (not sure how good this solution is in optimization field).

Also i was trying to use default physical material but doesnt seem that it can help (or i have not enough experience in this)

Any good ideas are welcome (including cpp ideas because blueprint prototype i’m going to “translate” to cpp)

Hey @F1nansist!

Would you mind sharing the blueprints you have so far so we can have a better understanding of what the issue you are facing is?

In the meantime, check out these non-Epic affiliated tutorials in case they have the solution you are looking for:

Any additional specifics you provide may go a long way in solving your problem!

Didnt find usefull information with my problem in these links

I found a solution. I put physical material (PM) at ball with friction and static friction 1 and restituation 1. In this case my rig doesnt influence on ball’s velocity (because of restituation) but influence on ball angle. Same PM i put on my rig and it works perfectly.

P.S. dont use projectile movement for this problem
