I've only just started the coding and this problem is making it quite difficult to continue with. The game is simple, get a ball to the top of th screen as fast as possible using a rotating rod. The rod: ____________________ I_________X_________I The X is the point at which the rod rotates around a full 360 degrees. The rod can only move vertically but it is possible to move in both directions on this axis. Atop of this rod sits a Ball. I have used the PMO to control the ball movement and it works well.... to a degree. As soon as the angle of the rod gets above 30 or 40 degrees and is then rotated in the other direction the ball falls through rod and off screen. How can i get round this issue? I do have an example available if no one is able to understand. n/a

It might be worth posting an example, but something like this is always likely to be glitchy if you code the physics yourself IMO. n/a
