Flipping object on collision

Questions
#1

I want to flip my game object once it collides with a wall but am not sure on the syntax for that when using rotation and quarternions. I want to flip the objects rotation using get and set rotations but im not sure what to write. Any ideas?

If you want to flip in the x direction you could try something like

go.set_rotation(vmath.quat_rotation_y(180.0))

#3

There’s also

sprite.set_hflip()

and

sprite.set_vflip()

maybe you’d like it more?

We have a Sprite flipping example in our Example collection.

Here’s a codepad showing how to rotate on the y-axis.

Remember that collision shapes will not rotate automatically. You need to flip them too! Use physics.set_hflip() and physics.set_vflip().
