Holding the ball in pong

somedude · May 28, 2019, 8:23pm

fehler and score(), also i gotta make the paddles emit a sound when the ball bounces off

Chrisir · May 29, 2019, 11:17am

for sound look at library sound

https://www.processing.org/reference/libraries/sound/index.html

I haven’t done the sound.

Remark

I changed quite a few things. Your draw() is now much leaner.

I added

boolean winplayer1=false; 
boolean winplayer2=false;

and used them throughout to stop the errors (fehler1 and fehler2) to be increased

also please check usage of fehler1 and fehler2 in println() and text() statements

Would be nice to have a tela (screen) for someoneHasOne

somedude · May 29, 2019, 4:00pm

thanks, now to make the right paddle hold the ball i just copy the hold() function to it?

Chrisir · May 29, 2019, 4:13pm

the hold() function is dead.

We only use the booleans hold and the other involved

but yeah you have to copy those and the logic with all the ifs working with them

somedude · May 29, 2019, 4:18pm

the move boolean is related to the movement of the ball or the paddle?

somedude · May 29, 2019, 4:22pm

what does the key = 0 does?

Chrisir · May 29, 2019, 4:22pm

it just kills ESC so we don’t leave the sketch but stay inside

Chrisir · May 29, 2019, 4:23pm

I don’t know, I didn’t invent it

boolean hold=false;
boolean attachedToPaddle=false;

these are relevant for ball attaching to paddle

somedude · May 29, 2019, 4:24pm

to make the hold function 2 i gotta copy all the lines that there is a hold involved or it must be a specific one?

Chrisir · May 29, 2019, 4:26pm

the hold function is dead

for the hold functionality (ball attaching to paddle) just copy all where hold and attachedToPaddle is involved.

And adapt it, so it applies to the right paddle

Chrisir · May 29, 2019, 4:31pm

actually depending on your skill level you want to turn to object oriented programming

see tutorials on objects

https://www.processing.org/tutorials/objects/

it would allow you to have one object ball and 2 objects paddle

Remark

also some of your variables are English, some German, some Swedish

Please make all English

somedude · May 29, 2019, 4:32pm

ok, sorry i’ll change it

here you need hold 2 and ```

and also ```
playerpos2

in this section hold2 && attachedToPaddle2 are missing

somedude · May 29, 2019, 6:19pm

so i add if(hold2 && attachedToPaddle2){
}
?

no.

if ( (hold && attachedToPaddle) || (hold2 && attachedToPaddle2) )
