Okay, to make this easy I'm going to just make a little drawing on how I want it to be able to bounce:
(This is the path I want it to go in. The right line is a wall
____ \ |
/ \ ___\|
___/ \__/ |
So basically, I need it to have gravity, and to be able to bounce off any surface and rebound at a random angle.

I think it was

when green flag clicked
forever
    
if <touching sprite   > then
    
end

    
end

end

wait, no… it was

when green flag clicked
forever
    
if on edge, bounce
end

yep it was.

well, no… it was for a pong game.

(too bad :()

I Don't Really Know How To, But Try This…If You Mean Something Different, Please Tell Me

Gravity:

forever
if <not <<touching [Path v] ?> or <touching color [#ff0088] ?>>> then
change y by (-1)
end
end

Jumping:

if <<<touching [Path v] ?> or <touching color [#ff0088] ?>> and <key [Up v] pressed?>> then
repeat ()
change y by (1)
end
end

Ya, That Is For Those Pong Games Or Whatever Everybody Calls It

Oh, And About Bouncing, I Know 0% Of It XD

Yeah, I'm not looking for things like pong. Think like you just threw a ball at the ground, then it bounced up and hit a wall, and so on.

I MEAN BOUNCING OFF NOT JUMPING OR GRAVITY

Hey Hey Hey, Calm Down Dude, Im Not Talking to You, But If Your Helping That Guy Or Something, Then You Could Just Tell Me Nicely Instead Of Telling Me Madly…

I Think I Understand What You Mean, Do You Mean You Want The Player To Bounce When It Touches The Path Or Something?
Or Do You Want It To Bounce Like A Ball When Hitting The Ground After Falling?
Oooor Do You Want To Make A Platformer But You Didn't Knew How?
Sorry If Those Are Like Nothing To Do With Your Main Question
Anyways, Could You Please Explain What You Really Want?

Tryin To Be Nice Here…

Okay, wait.
What I'm trying to do is make a grenade physics thing for a collaborative project ( https://scratch.mit.edu/studios/2046511/ )
and so what I want is for it to be able to bounce off of walls and the floor after being thrown, for example. And yes, it's for a platformer. Just imagine a ball being thrown at the floor, then bouncing up and hitting a wall, and then bouncing back to you and stuff. I'm basically looking for a way for a physics
script(s) that makes things bounce when they hit other surfaces.

Oh, I See what You Mean
How About This?
For Moving Vertical

if <touching [Ground v] ?> then
point in direction ((0) - (direction))
end

For Moving Horizontal

if <touching [Wall v] ?> then
point in direction ((180) - (direction))
end

To Make It Actually Jump Off, Your Gonna Have To Figure That Out Yourself, Cuz Im Not Sure How To…
Maybe Like This?

if <touching [Ground v] ?> then
point in direction ((0) - (direction))
repeat ()
move () steps
end
end

Hmm… It's not quite what I'm looking for, because I need to incorporate gravity and velocity. I'll try to modify it, though.

Check the scripts on the hammer brother hammer in my scrolling bad guy placement examples. That hammer has velocity and gravity. You could probably add the koopa bouncing scripts for the floor but have it continually bounce less as it slows down. Then work out something similar for the bouncing off the wall or edge.

and about gravity… I know 0% XD

the gravity is pretty simple but i can see it being confusing. just make a variable to remind you that it changes your Y coordinate, leyts called Yy. so we have Yy and lets say if not touching color black then it changes Yy by -1 or whatever gravity strengh you want. and then make a script that makes the sprite change by Yy. so “forever change Y by Yy” so then when it DOES touch the color black then it sets Yy to zero to represent you have touched something. so then when you arent touching a color or something then what it does is it makes the gravity stronger to show you have been falling faster and accelerating. so when you want to jump just make a script that changes Yy by however much you want your character to jump.

I'm not looking for a jumping script, a BOUNCING script. Like when you throw a ball?

Are you trying to implement real-world physics into your bouncing thing? or just like a simple bounce script with very low gravity because real-world physics might be inefficient

I just want to know, How do you get the Player to bounce off the Ground?
