It’s been a month since this guide has been posted - when are you gonna add the other parts? I can’t wait for it to be finished!
Edit - Can you edit it anymore? You only had thirty days to edit it.

Geometry dash? That’s possible…?

Personally only geometry dash I would do would be DLD geometry dash when that comes out… but if your doing that… goodluck

You were trip before (or trop).
@Txme_Lxss it’s actually much easier then you think (besides the animation)

thank you to the nice comments! i decided to finish this guide after all, here i will continue the ball and team mechanics.

ball

First, add a ball, It doesn’t matter what color. Give it these settings


Doing this will allow the ball to be knocked around infinitely.

Now, add a trigger that cant be activated by player movement. now head into blocks, where we will make a standard randomizer. I wont go too much into depth on how to do this, just copy what my blocks look like.

Now, add 2 sentries on each side of the ball. Set them to deactivated on game start. Make sure they have max aim, yet low fire rate. (it doesn’t matter what weapon you give them)

Now, make a relay, wire the relay to the trigger so that when game starts, trigger. You can have a short trigger delay if you’d like.

Now, make each sentry activate to its own channel. (ex: the sentry on the left will activate when channel 1 is chosen.)

make it so the front barrier and the two paddles infront of the player spawnpad deactivate when their own channel is chosen. (the right paddle barrier would disappear when right channel is chose.)

We’re basically making it so that the sentry will shoot at the player. You could also add barriers on all other sides of the spawn pad that deactivate later.

Now, add a ball zone directly infront of the paddles.

Make it so that when ball enters the zone, the barriers that we previously deactivated, will activate. If you add barriers all around the player you can deactivate those too. Also make it so that both of the sentries will deactivate.

And there you go! thats the ball mechanics done! You just have to repeat the same steps but for the opposite side.
