void collision (void)
{
// ball movement (Yes?)
x1 += xVect1;
y1 += yVect1;
x2 += xVect2;
y2 += yVect2;
// test for collision
if (distance > radius1 + radius2)
{
return;
}
// if we get here, the balls have collided,
// so we do the collision calculations
xVelocity = xVect2 - xVect1;
yVelocity = yVect2 - yVect1;
// Normalize
Normal (x1 - x2, y1 - y2, normal);
approach = DotProd(normal[0], normal[1], xVelocity, yVelocity);
// calculate velocity change
xNewVect = normal[0] * approach;
yNewVect = normal[1] * approach;
// change velocities
xVect1 += xNewVect;
yVect1 += yNewVect;
xVect2 -= xNewVect;
yVect2 -= yNewVect;

Convert from C into C#?
Author
Apologies.. this was in a thread i already made but thought it would get more views out here in a new thread.
I'm developing an Air Hockey game in C# and i'm trying to simulate a collision between two ellipses.. the paddle which the user is controlling with the mouse (e.X, e.Y) and also a puck which should move it the paddle collides with it. I have the collision detection working correctly.
I think i got an example using vectors on how to simulate a collision between these two ellipses.
Also, i understand how to get the velocity of the puck? It's specified already in my source code (x_vel, y_vel) how would i get the velocity of the paddle the user is moving with the mouse?
The source code i found is unfortunately in C.. can anyone convert this to C# as can't find ways to implement DotProd or Normal in C#.
Many thanks in advance.

isnt that same with c#?
i have done some homeworks of the school (easy ones) in c#, and it seems to me the same
maybe the only thing to change would be this:
void collision (void)
to
public void collision()
and when you callthe 2 methods (dotproduct and normal) , well just create an instance of the class.
class c
{
// something first
c instance = new instance();
instance.normal(xxxxx);
intance.dotproduct(xxxx);
// something then...
}

Use static functions.
An excellent way would also be to implement a vector class (since vectors can be easily represented by objects), although I'm almost sure there's a 2D vector C# class laying around somewhere.
class Whatever { public static double DotProduct( double a, double b, double c, double d ) { return a*c + b*d; }}// later...double x = Whatever::DotProduct( foo, bar, baz, foobar );An excellent way would also be to implement a vector class (since vectors can be easily represented by objects), although I'm almost sure there's a 2D vector C# class laying around somewhere.
To answer your other question, in your simplistic simulation the velocity of an object is the distance it moves between two updates. To find the velocity of the paddle, substract its previous position from the current position.

Thank you all for the helpful suggestions and tips.
Will give it a go and report back to ye here with how i did.
Cheers again!

Make that Whatever.DotProduct( foo, bar, baz, foobar );. In C# they changed the namespace scope specification punctuator from '::' to '.'. Sometimes I make the opposite mistake when I write in C++. [wink]
How's the development of the C# compiler going for Linux? I've stayed away from C# because I want to be as "platform-independant" as possible... and it seems I can stick with that with either Java or C++ (haven't learned Java enough yet, so C++ it is!).
