from C# to Javascript

[shollwedel]

I’m learning to use Unity for a college course, and I’ve making a pong game by following a tutorial and then changing it. The thing is we’re learning in Javascript and the code from the tutorial is in C#.
Could anyone help me out either with changing the code to work in Javascript, or adding a variable so that I can change the speed of the ball?

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class Ball : MonoBehaviour {

// Use this for initialization
void Start () {
// set start direction
rigidbody.velocity = Vector3.right;
}

// Update is called once per frame
void Update () {
// keep the speed of 1
rigidbody.velocity = rigidbody.velocity.normalized;
}

void OnCollisionEnter(Collision collision) {
if (collision.collider.name == “BorderLeft”)
{
// ToDo: right player scores a point
}
else if (collision.collider.name == “BorderRight”)
{
// ToDo: left player scroes a point
}
else if (collision.collider.name == “BorderTop”)
{
// change vertical direction
rigidbody.velocity = new Vector3(rigidbody.velocity.x,
rigidbody.velocity.y,
rigidbody.velocity.z * -1.0f);
}
else if (collision.collider.name == “BorderBottom”)
{
// change vertical direction
rigidbody.velocity = new Vector3(rigidbody.velocity.x,
rigidbody.velocity.y,
rigidbody.velocity.z * -1.0f);
}
else if (collision.collider.name == “RacketLeft”)
{
// change horizontal direction
rigidbody.velocity = new Vector3(rigidbody.velocity.x * -1.0f,
rigidbody.velocity.y,
rigidbody.velocity.z);
}
else if (collision.collider.name == “RacketRight”)
{
// change horizontal direction
rigidbody.velocity = new Vector3(rigidbody.velocity.x * -1.0f,
rigidbody.velocity.y,
rigidbody.velocity.z);
}
}
}

javascript isn’t that different.
for a variable you use var:type name;
in c# type name;
void Start(){
}
function Start(){
}
rigidbody.velocity = Vector3.right;
javascript would be the same.

void Update(){
}
function Update(){
}

Add a little at a time and read the error message.
