Coding pinball flippers

[frosty eagle]

i need help coding a pinball mechanic in my game. i tried alot of different methods but it doesnt work.

[lofty plinth]

Can you tell us more about it @frosty eagle ?

[frosty eagle]

i tried using tweens but that cause issues with collision.

heres the code for the left flipper

local input = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")

local flipper = game.Workspace.PINBALLFLIPPER1:WaitForChild("thing")
local motor = flipper.HingeConstraint
-- Settings
local tweeninfo = TweenInfo.new(0.1, Enum.EasingStyle.Quart, Enum.EasingDirection.Out)

-- Settings
local restAngle = 0
local flipAngle = -45 -- Adjust this based on your flipper's orientation

-- Store the original position and the "flipped" position

input.InputBegan:Connect(function(key, processed)

if processed then return end
if key.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.Q then
    motor.TargetAngle = flipAngle
    print(motor.TargetAngle)    
    --flipDown:Cancel() -- Stop moving down if we are pressing up
    --flipUp:Play()
    --if flipper.CFrame == flippedCFrame then
    --    flipper.CFrame = originalCFrame
    --end
end

end)

input.InputEnded:Connect(function(key, processed)
--if processed then return end

if key.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.Q then
    motor.TargetAngle = restAngle    
    print(motor.TargetAngle)    
end

end)

maybe just a for loop

or uh

use roblox physics

oh god

basicly

put a hinge on the spot where it turns

and give it velocity

and i wish you luck

[frosty eagle]

That's what I did

Some of the stuff is commented out btw

Because they were from my last attempts

[lofty plinth]

and what happened

did roblox physics bug the f out?

[frosty eagle]

I found out that collision doesn't work with tweens which was surprising

im trying out the HingeConstraint now
