velocity and comands problem

[cyber reaper]

ok , ill keep that one short , i have a ball element which is start to rotate and move from on side of the screen , i want to make a script which will check its X position and if it will get to 200 make it stop ... i was trying for a several hours.. havent got to anything but a headec

this is the scrip i was trying

ball = element("ball")

switch (ball.x){
case 200 :
ball.velocity.x = 0
ball.acceleration.x = 0
break;

default :
ball = element("ball")
break;
}

Case is better suited when you have many options.

Better an If

code:

---

if (ball.x>=200){

 ball.velocity.x=0

 ball.acceleration.x=0

}

---

you need

ball=element("ball")

in your starting script
