How to make a Trampoline

Introduction

This tutorial is intended to show how to build a trampoline.

Setup

Let's begin by adding one brick. Now, you'll want to look in your properties, and if you don't have the properties window, then select View->Properties.

Script

• Select the brick.
• Insert > Object > Script.
• Copy and Paste the following into the script object:

local v = 200
function onTouched(part) -- when the brick gets touched
	if part.Parent ~= nil then -- if it's human
		local h = part.Parent:findFirstChild("Humanoid") 
			if h~=nil then 
				
h.Parent.Torso.Velocity=Vector3.new(0,v,0) -- shoot your humanoid in the air at v speed
wait(0.5) -- wait this long						
			end
	end
end
script.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouched)

This script was taken right from the trampoline model. If you want to change how fast you go, chang the variable V. The problem with this is that if you make your entire trampoline with this script, the trampoline will bounce equally high in the middle as on the outer edge. This isn't representative of real life. So, what you can do is make the trampoline bricks in the middle bounce a little higher (the 'sweet spot') than on the outer edges to make it a little more realistic.

Alternative methods

• Insert > Object > Part
• Move the newly created brick where you want it to be.
• Anchor this brick. (This is important).
• Select this brick.
• In the Properties window, click the "+" next to Velocity.
• Change the "y" Value between 0-300. NOTE:If it goes over 500 your body might disappear.
• Test your map. When you walk on top of the brick, you will shoot into the air.
