The question: can we build something on the table?
- Yes, but armadillo should touch the table itself.

Is it OK if the ball does not touch one side before being batted over to the other side (except for the serve, of course)?
- It's ok, but don't forget to touch table sides in this order: Right, Left, R, L, R, L... and so on. Once for each side.

So we can't put the dillo in a cage and use a rocket to fly it around, but can we use rockets for other things? Can I have a rocket power a wheel?

You can 'end the level' without the net breaking :P

eg: if you double bounce, or the armadillo goes out, etc....


PS: Thanks for your answers ioncorpse! I though that you could serve again if you got 1 fault :oops: :oops: :oops:

- YES. Just do not attach anything to dillo.

- Yes, you are. But don't forget to complete the level then.

I think there is some confusion here. ioncorpse, do you mean that we need to reach the "Level completed" screen? In that case, I guess we need to break the net, right, dudio?

YES, you have to reach the "Level completed" screen. I already said it before. But after you break the net you can't receive any more score points.

I didn't say that it would be easy:) Thats why this competition will be over only next tuesday...

Sorry, I got confused by this too. Thanks for clearing it up!

It's really easy to finish the level w/o breaking the clothe
Seemed easier than breaking it too

"Is it OK if the ball does not touch one side before being batted over to the other side (except for the serve, of course)?"
"It's ok"

So that means that after point 1, I no longer have to touch the ground?

look at TableTenis_Play.jpg, judging by that you have to continue hitting the ground, otherwise thats not a propper game, not that i care since ive got a solution at the moment.

To get points you have to hit the table, I am sure. What I was wondering was if it is OK to hit a volley. I am not sure about the answer though. :wink:

volley - the return of the ball before it hits the ground

So you know you have to hit the table, but you don't know if you could return the ball w/o hitting the table? How does that make any sense...

You did, but then you said volleys were fine, which you didn't mean. :| Lame

Well, it could be OK to do that, but you wouldn't get any points...
