I'm starting work on a 2D Android game where the player will put their finger on a game piece and do a fling gesture to throw the piece across the gameboard.
I've gone through some Android interpolation animation tutorials and have the fling working, and the game piece (currently the only item on the board) moving almost as intended.
However, I'm utterly flumoxed as to how I would work collision detection into this, as it seems to me that the fling gesture, and the resulting movement of the piece is a complete, uninterruptable action.
Are there any existing Android resources that implement 2D ball physics whilst also allowing things to be moved by flinging? The next move in the game would only be made once all game pieces had come to rest, so it's only the initial action that requires the fling.
Failing that, could someone kindly point out some good resources that might be relevant to my question? My Google hunting has pretty much just liquified my brain.
