In Response To: Possible Forgequack (*AHEM* pete_the_duck) (drdoctor)

: Regarding Ricochet. I downloaded the gametype but have yet to get the
: champions bundle. (waiting to see if my one singular haiku wins.)

: Anyway. I was messing around in forge and I noticed that if you place a
: gravity volume the ball will bounce right off. Is this true for other ball
: gametypes? On top of that. If you are inside the gravity volume and throw
: it, it will immediately move away from the center of the volume. This
: could be useful in ricochet arenas like the one I'm building where the two
: types of goals are in separate locations. You could place a gravity volume
: in the endzone and and it would allow it to bounce right off without
: impeding the player or projectiles. It could cause less confusion than
: having someone throw a ball into an endzone and seeing it just lay
: there... scoreless.

: I also noticed it can force the ball against an object. Perhaps people could
: use this to make inverted tracks for crazy Rube Goldberg machines.

Yes objectives bounce off them. It's how I made an invisible dome on Impact to hold the Oddball the map:
