Algodoo

What is the "m" in your equation?

I think you mean "meter", right? And if that's the case, then the distance between the Milky Way and Andromeda in an Algodoo scene would have to be 2.5 million meters!

BTW - Many of the galaxies in your scene are spinning in the wrong direction based on the direction that the trails are swirling.

JP - First of all, no, you did not get banned for a bug. You got banned for violating the rules.

Anyhow, it appears that your issue with comments has gone away! Concerning the Algodoo Forum, it is pretty much dead. Only a couple of people every few months will post something on it, and I doubt that anyone reads it. Algodoo has been frozen since about 2016 (I think) when the lead engineer (Emil Emerfeldt) left Algoryx for a different company. Because of that, Algodoo will most likely never get updated. So we will have to live with whatever bugs or issues that it has.

There's nothing better to hurt your head than science and technology!

Okay, so go ahead and install VPX and tell me how you like it.

Oh, by the way, what's VPX?

Good job! Nice layout. The only issue I see (or maybe you WANT it to be that way) is the ball keeps going back down that path back to the ball launch plunger. Maybe put a one-way gate at the opening so that the ball cannot go back down that path to the plunger?

Not interested in VPX but thanks anyway!

Many years ago I worked for a company that installed and maintained pinball machines in bars and bowling alleys. I learned a lot about how they work, but not how to design a brand new game. It was a fun job.

Is this a game?

Illegal???? Why? You can say stuff like that in comments. The things that are against the rules in comments are: 1. cuss words 2. Threatening another person. 3. Calling someone hurtful names. 4. Racial slurs or jokes.

There are more but I can't think what they are right now.

That's funny. Many scenes on Algobox were made because the person was bored. Well, that's better than getting into trouble on the streets!

groovyOff will fix that.

Credit to all?????? What is that supposed to mean?

Say WHAT?

You make no sense.

That text will show if you accidentally try to post the same comment more than once. Other than that, I don't any other reason why that happened to you.

Quote: "how did you make the ball power?"

There is an invisible spring attached to the plunger handle. The length of that spring determines the ball power. I transferred that ball power number to the ball power display text box through a global variable. Very simple!

It took me a while to figure out how this logic device works, but when I finally did, I can see how clever it is. Nice job!

One suggestion is to disable the Algodoo clouds because they make no sense in a scene of this type, and they are a distraction.

No. It was intentionally made that way. He used the command groovyOn which turns on that psychedelic color swirling. groovyOff turns it off.

Just as the instructions say, you start the game by pressing "S" key.

It's very very VERY ssssslllllooooooooooowwwwww, but it gives the correct answers. Good job!

I'm not.

Cool!

Thanks guys!

PrimeChase -- I left my previous comment over two months ago. If darren lo wanted my help, he would have asked for it by now.

Thanks for your comment.

I understand digital logic, but I'm not very talented when it comes to making complex mechanical devices with Algodoo (as you are). And so when I look at the very clever mechanical devices that you have made, I am very impressed and amazed at how clever they are.

This is COOL!

Yes, the Japanese people are very creative. There is an Algodoo user from Japan whose screen name is rangycrow. His scenes are very complex mechanical devices which you might be interested in seeing. Just click on his name and you will see a list of all of his amazing scenes: rangycrow

Awesome! Thanks...

If not a joke then WHAT is it???

Realistic looking crocodile. Good job!
