Bouncing object goes through active object

Hey guys, i have a bouncing object that goes through my active object and wall before Sparckman did a workaround for it. Whenever you drag the active object and press against the bouncing object on a wall, the bouncing object goes through the active object.

Is there any fix for this?

Here is the file.

Direction: Just drag the green active object against the yellow bouncing object near a wall.

The fix would be some custom eventing.
(I would guess what Sparckman did)

Using some physics on it might react a little more automatic then the non-physics based movements.
I would try that if you don't want to use the method Sparckman sent you.

I've tried doing something similar to what Sparks did with setting the directions but it doesn't work with an active object. the bouncing object still goes through the active object.

Hi, which example of Sparckman did you use?

The mfa that i have attached in the original post.

You could limit the drag area in the properties.

Thanks for the reply! I will give that a try.

Hello ineke, I tried to limit the drag area but that doesn't really help what I am trying to do. I don't want to limit the drag area, I want to be able to drag the active anywhere i want while also pushing up against the bouncing object.

Try to use the physics engine instead

Sorry gamer123 I really don't understand what you mean.

here is another solution, it seems to work better

application_5_sparck.mfa

Still can't seem to get it to work. What I'm trying to do is hit the bouncing object with the active object by dragging the active towards the bouncing object and hitting it. when i do that, the active object goes thru the bouncing object. is this just something that can't be done in fusion?

Use the physics engine instead. This requires complex collision checking that is probably beyond your knowledge at the moment. The physics engine is simple to use and handles what you want perfectly since it has checks that force the object out of something that it is overlapping.

I will give that a try.

I don't know what you're trying to make but would a hack like this be close to what you're after? You could probably elaborate on it to make it smoother

Ultimate Walrus thank you for sharing. It solved my problem with bouncing ball.

Thanks man, that worked!
