Stop object velocity from moving horizontally
I have multiple game objects that bounce around the screen (similar to breakout). Every once in a while the objects start bouncing horizontally non-stop. Is there a way for me to detect when this happens or disable this type of movement completely?
When it collides with the edge and bounces, you can check to see if the y-velocity is close to zero, and if so, either destroy it, or just add a little random value to the y-velocity. That way it will get itself unstuck eventually.
Adding this in my Update() seems to work
if (rb.velocity.x > 0 && rb.velocity.y == 0) {
rb.velocity = new Vector2(
rb.velocity.x, speed
);
}
