Description

models the impacts of a bouncing object that is reflected by a vibrating surface

Class Methods

TBall.ar(in: 0.0, g: 10, damp: 0, friction: 0.01)

TBall.kr(in: 0.0, g: 10, damp: 0, friction: 0.01)

Arguments:

in	modulated surface level
g	gravity
damp	damping on impact
friction	proximity from which on attraction to surface starts

// mouse x controls switch of level
// mouse y controls gravity
