`for the ripples, I thought once the line would reach its end point which in this case would be 100 on the screen, I could do an equation with sin and cos to make ripples, but I don't really know how that would go as the maths are what I have to study the most. Ironically, they interest me the most too. So i'm not sure if it would be cos(100)/2, I don't know I need the syntax to calculate it.
