Papi Jump Type App

Getting Started Newbie Questions
#1

Hay everyone,

I just joined the Corona community, and I am just learning. I did most of the tutorials on
http://techority.com/2011/01/12/corona-for-newbies-part-1/

and they were great! Any new user should try them. Special thanks to their writer Peach!

AnyWays… I am making an basically a copy of Papi Jump, and I have a few questions.

  1. I have a ball bouncing on a bar, and I want the ball to bounce the same height every time. Currently it bounces a little higher each time, anyone know how to fix this?

  2. If any of you have ever played Papi Jump or Doodle Jump etc. you know, that there is an endless amount of bricks to jump on, i have a screen that can go high up, but I don’t know how to make more bricks on them.

  3. How do I test the app on my iPod? I am a free user, currently. Is this even possible?

Thanks in advance to any help! [import]uid: 86879 topic_id: 14498 reply_id: 314498[/import]

  1. you need to play with the bounce and friction parameters when you create the physics objects. Maybe add linear damping too.

  2. you’re going to need to add new bricks to an array and spawn them in random places as the balls y coordinates move higher.

  3. I think it’s possible if you’re an apple developer I don’t know.
