Admittedly, I did not accomplish much this week. I successfully implemented changing the ball&#8217;s direction, relative to where it hits the paddle, however, I did not succeed in getting the angle to change when the ball hits the paddle&#8217;s edge. Furthermore, my attempts to change the angle of the ball messed with the switching of the direction. I guess I need more encapsulation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;m headed to Colorado this weekend for a concert so again, probably not going to get much work done this weekend. My work on the game mechanics is so removed from my teammates&#8217; work, though, that my ability to get the angle to change shouldn&#8217;t affect my teammates abilities to make progress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other than that, no news to report. I&#8217;m excited about the concert, it&#8217;s Sublime so it should be a good time. I&#8217;m hoping to get some hiking in while I&#8217;m there. I haven&#8217;t done much hiking in months and I haven&#8217;t seen the snow for several years I believe. I miss it. I&#8217;ll have an excuse to pull out my microspikes. Hoping to unwind and get some solid exercise in. Once I get back, it will almost be time to demonstrate the project. The halfway mark! It&#8217;s a fun project, but I&#8217;m glad I&#8217;m letting my teammates do more of the work now, as I do enjoy my free time and I also need time away from school and work. Once I&#8217;m done with school, I want to take a big trip. I still don&#8217;t know where.
