Bouncing ball with line tracing by channel

[Godlike0207]

Hi,

I tried to made a bouncing ball with “Line Trace By Channel” but it doesn’t work. Does anyone know what I did wrong there. The ball should squash and stretch (scaling/animations).

hi,
it´s not clear where the arrows start, but it would be best if you cast from the center of the ball and subtract the radius, otherwise if the ball get squashed the linetrace will be intersecting the wall…

i will replicate this in an hours or so… it´s time here

later

hi,
here is what i came up with
you can change it for a timeline if you prefer

variables (change only the public ones, others are for computing)

event graph

traces

and the functions

and here is the result

hope this helps

cheers
