The playing field resides in the x,z-plane, with the x-axis being the horizontal axis and the z-axis being the vertical axis. Various parameters can be set: - The dimension is a vector, that defines the width and height of the playing field. The default is (200, 120). - The balltemplate is a template that is applied to the @ref orxonox::PongBall "PongBall", it can be used to attach different things to it, e.g. its @ref orxonox::Model "Model". See below for a usage example. - The battemplate is a template that is applied to the @ref orxonox::PongBall "PongBat", it can be used to attach different things to it, e.g. its @ref orxonox::Model "Model". See below for a usage example. - The ballspeed is the speed with which the @ref orxonox::PongBall "PongBall" moves. The default is 100. - The ballaccfactor is the acceleration factor for the @ref orxonox::PongBall "PongBall". The default is 1.0. - The batspeed is the speed with which the @ref orxonox::PongBat "PongBats" move. The default is 60. - The batlength is the length of the @ref orxonox::PongBat "PongBats" as the percentage of the height of the playing field. The default is 0.25. An example in XML of the PongCenterpoint would be: First the needed templates: The template for the @ref orxonox::PongBall "PongBall". @code @endcode As can be seen, a sphere is attached as the @ref orxonox::Model "Model" for the @ref orxonox::PongBall "PongBall", and also an @ref orxonox::EventListener "EventListener" that triggers a @ref orxonox::ParticleSpawner "ParticleSpawner", whenever the ball hits the boundaries is attached. Additionally the template for the @ref orxonox::PongBat "PongBat". @code @endcode As can be seen, there are actually two templates. The first template is needed to set the camera for the @ref orxonox::PongBat "PongBat". The second template ist the actual template for the @ref orxonox::PongBat "PongBat", the template for the camera position is added and a @ref orxonox::Model "Model" for the @ref orxonox::PongBat "PongBat" is attached. Finally the PongCenterpoint is created. @code @endcode All parameters are specified. And also two @ref orxonox::Model "Models" (for the upper and lower boundary) are attached. For a more elaborate example, have a look at the pong.oxw level file. @author Fabian 'x3n' Landau @ingroup Pong */ class _PongExport PongCenterpoint : public StaticEntity { public: PongCenterpoint(Context* context); //!< Constructor.
