Manipulating projectile direction after hitting something? (preitty picturee)

[Piston1337]

I am wondering if this is possible:
(Something i drew up in 5 seconds lol)

Throw a ball at a slanted wall, come back and tell me if it worked the way you wanted it to work.

[Piston1337]

You shouldnt post if youre not going to be helpful, I need a script that can do this black magic.

[Piston1337]

Sorry for double post ._.

You need to be much more specific, what EXACTLY are you trying to do?
Make ALL projectiles bounce AND change how they bounce? Make only certain kinds of projectiles bounce differently?

[Xalos]

So basically you want a sonar wave projectile.

He wants a projectile that deflects back to the person/brick firing it.

Yea, didn't you look at his wonderful diagram?

I was also looking for a way to reflect projectiles from a player without damage

No, not all projectiles. Just a special projectile like the logic gate projectile (Projectile_bit) they used on the logic gate servers.

Yeah I suppose

Correct!

Those took me hours to make :C

5 seconds

what

OT: I think you'd have to use ProjectileDatablockHere::onColision(%this,%IDontKnow,%IfThereAre,%AnyMoreArguments) and do some math to get a velocity vector for the projectile, then set the velocity of the projectile, blah blah blah.

[Treynolds416]

The math in question is very easy: vectorScale(%originalVector,-1);

[Piston1337]

The math in question is very easy: vectorScale(%originalVector,-1);

is that it?

[Chrono]

Yeah pretty much.

[Piston1337]

how would i apply that in something like... for example the gun bullet projectile. Can someone make a full script for this?
