Stop ball going super slow challenge

[UpBlupPup]

So I gave the “stop the ball from going super slow” challenge a go and would like to share the result. Took me more time then I thought but it works pretty good for me. The ball has a constant velocity now with random tweaking the direction.

In ball.cs:

private void OnCollisionEnter2D(Collision2D collision)
    {
        if(hasStarted)
        {
            AudioClip clip = ballSounds[Random.Range(0, ballSounds.Length)];
            myAudioSource.PlayOneShot(clip);
            TweakVelocity();
        }
    }

private void TweakVelocity()
{
    var totalPush = xPush + yPush;
    var xIsNegative = false;
    var yIsNegative = false;

    // Get the current velocity
    Vector2 myVelocity = myRigidbody2D.velocity;
    Debug.Log($"Velo CURRENT : {myVelocity} = {Mathf.Abs(myVelocity.x) + Mathf.Abs(myVelocity.y)}");

    // Change negative velocity to positive
    if(myVelocity.x < 0)
    {
        xIsNegative = true;
        myVelocity.x *= -1;
    }
    if(myVelocity.y < 0)
    {
        yIsNegative = true;
        myVelocity.y *= -1;
    }

    // Tweak velocity using a Random number from range
    Vector2 velocityTweak = new Vector2(Random.Range(0f, randomFactor),
                                        Random.Range(0f, randomFactor));

    myVelocity += velocityTweak;
    Debug.Log($"Velo TWEAK : {velocityTweak}");

    // Adjust velocity so it stays the same as the initial push
    var velocityAdjustment = totalPush / (myVelocity.x + myVelocity.y);
    myVelocity.x *= velocityAdjustment;
    myVelocity.y *= velocityAdjustment;
    Debug.Log($"Velo ADJUSTMENT : {velocityAdjustment}");

    // Change back velocity that was negative
    if(xIsNegative)
    {
        myVelocity.x *= -1;
    }

    if(yIsNegative)
    {
        myVelocity.y *= -1;
    }

    Debug.Log($"Velo NEW : {myVelocity} = {Mathf.Abs(myVelocity.x) + Mathf.Abs(myVelocity.y)}");

    // Set the new velocity 
    myRigidbody2D.velocity = myVelocity;
    Debug.Log("-------------------------------");
}
