This code should put a couple of break out blocks in the middle of your level. It's pretty basic so you may want to play around with it... (Put more blocks in the level, make the blocks smaller etc.)

I won't do it for you but I will tell you one fact that'll help you. You know exactly where the ball is at all times.

Think about my last statement for a bit before you open the first clue... these are like infocom invisiclues.

"You know exactly where the ball is at all times."

Clue #1:

+ Code Snippet

What part of your code keeps the ball coordinates?

Clue #2:

+ Code Snippet

Once you know the variables that store the ball coordinates... which one do you want to use for player 2?

Clue #3:

+ Code Snippet

When you position player 2 at the end of the code instead of using "player2pos#" use "ballz#" instead.

Clue #4:

+ Code Snippet

position object 2,-5,0,ballz#

Well you just make an object appear and start to move towards the paddle opposite the ball direction. Check for collision of that object with the paddles... once that powerup object hits a players paddle change the ball size.

I would create the object when a powerup is found... not create it and hide it.

If I show you in code you'll have the answer and you won't figure it out yourself. You know where the blocks are... all you have to do is take the coordinates from the block that's removed, create the powerup object, and move it towards the last player to hit the ball. Check for collision just like you check the collision with the ball to the player (only use the object number of the powerup instead of the ball) and once collision happens change the size of the ball.

In a word... no.

That line doesn't make sense. You don't want to change "ballz#"... and Darkbasic isn't going to make "ballz#" equal a 3D object. Also if your wanting to create a new object you don't want to use the object number of the ball (object number 3 already exists) or try to position an object that doesn't exist (object number 6).

It's almost as if you just want code and not even attempt to learn to code by yourself. Did you write that pong code or did you copy it from somewhere?
