last_hit_by_player = False instance-attribute

speed = Vec2(0, 0) instance-attribute

__init__(left: float, top: float, width: float, height: float)

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default

width	float	Circle diameter.	required
height	float	Circle diameter.	required

flip_x() -> None

Invert horizontal velocity.

flip_y() -> None

Invert vertical velocity.

is_going_down() -> bool

Returns True if vertical velocity is downwards in y-down space.

is_going_up() -> bool

Returns True if vertical velocity is upwards in y-down space.

render_to(window_height: float) -> None

Draw as a filled circle using Arcade (convert y-down center to y-up).

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
window_height	float	Current window height, used to flip y-axis for Arcade.	required

set_speed(value: Vec2) -> None

Assign a new 2D speed vector to the ball.
