I have a simple class that creates a frame with some balls in it that bounce off the sides. For some reason the balls bounce fine off of the north, west, and east sides of the frame but go slightly past the south side before bouncing off of it. I take the size of the ball into account when setting the boundaries and this works fine on the x axis but not the y.
