Ok, after seeing someone make a pong game. I had to make my own. So I pretty much got a player vs player mode and I am working on the point system*. But when I think about it, I don't know how I could coude a player vs cpu. Plus, I don't want to make the cpu amazingly good. I would want it to lose sometimes. Maybe I could have the CPU's box to follow the ball on the y axis at the same speed. But that would make him never miss. Please, need some help and tips.

*For the point system. I plan on the user inputting how many sets and points per sets he wants for the pong match. So when someone runs out of points, they lose the set.

Well for a simple makeshift method
Make it so each slider can only move at a certan speed.
Get the y axis and write a few if statements

This way the cpu and the player have a fair chance at hitting or missing the ball

Just an idea havent messed with this stuff in a while and just getting back into it my self lemme know how it turns out
