Ball Image Scripting

[Lizard]

I have a global ball and decal image set in VPX with the overwrite ball image option. What i want to do on some tables is script a different ball and decal.

The table i am trying on at the moment is 32assassins latest flipper football update to change to the soccer ball. I can manage to change the ball image

with .BallImage = “ball” but can’t find any info on how to change the decal image by script. Had a look at the command reference text file but couldn’t

find a solution. Can the ball decal be changed via the script?

Cheers

Might be a different way to do it, but this is how I did it in Black Hole and it worked.  When I create the ball I assign it a name, then later you can assign an image and a decal to that ball.

Set cBall1 = Kicker1.CreateSizedBallWithMass(BallRadius, BallMass)

cBall1.Image = “Chrome_Ball_29”
cBall1.FrontDecal = “BlackHole_Ball1”

uncle willy has multiple code examples on how to change the ball image  on his seawitch table.

when the ball is created and kicked out

bsTrough.BallImage = “ballDark”

 

ball image is changed by triggers

‘Ball image triggers

Sub tdl_Hit():ActiveBall.Image = “ball”:End Sub

Sub tld_Hit():ActiveBall.Image = “ballDark”:End Sub

 

 

see a table you like help me find the resources so that I can finish it
