2.5D jumping code

[YouGroove]

Well i don't use character controller on player as i want only X/Y axes for 2.5D game.

 

I got some jumping code where i use AddForce on Y , and detect when Velocity go down from highter jump point reach in Y.

Than i detect when Velocity passes > 0 when character is beginning the first boucing , then i use SetPosition to cancel physics on character.and have it stay on floor instead of bounce.

 

 

function Script:Movement()

if self.jumping == 0 then
   pos = self.entity:GetPosition()

   Xplus=(App.window:KeyDown(Key.S) and 1 or 0)
   Xmoins=(App.window:KeyDown(Key.Q) and 1 or 0)
   playerx = (Xplus- Xmoins) * Time:GetSpeed() * self.moveSpeed

   if Xplus >0 then
       self.orient = 1
   end
   if Xmoins >0 then
       self.orient = -1
   end
   pos.x = pos.x + playerx

end


   jump=(App.window:KeyDown(Key.X) and 1 or 0)
   if self.jumping == 0 then
       if jump == 1 then
           self.jumping = 1
           self.entity:AddForce ( 0, 200, 0 , true )
       end
   end

if self.jumping == 1 then
       vel=self.entity:GetVelocity(true)
       if vel.y<0 then
       --    self.entity:AddForce ( 0, -50, 0 , true )
           self.jumping = 2
       end

end

if self.jumping == 2 then
       vel=self.entity:GetVelocity(true)
       if vel.y > 0 then
       --    self.entity:AddForce ( 0, -50, 0 , true )
           self.jumping = 0
           pos= self.entity:GetPosition()
           self.entity:SetPosition(pos)
       end  
end


   self.entity:PhysicsSetRotation( 0, 90*self.orient, 0 )

   -- move the controller in the rotation of the player
if self.jumping == 0 then
   self.entity:PhysicsSetPosition(pos.x,pos.y,self.zdepth,0.5)
end

end

 

The problem is that keeping pressed jump sometimes you can continuously jump ?

 

Just guess if someone have a working 2.5D lua code ?

to check if you stay on ground

Thanks, but Airborne is when you jump using character controller and is jumping feature.

I use simple physics so can't simply work.

ok then it should possible to ask for a linear velocity to the bottom (if player falls down)

 

if there is one you should disable the jump.

 

 

like:

 

is my player falling? yes -> disable jump

is my player falling? no -> enable jump

 

 

other solution:

 

if player have a collision with an entity with the key "ground" enable jump. if not disable jump.

THanks, bu it is some logic i followed, but i got strange stuuf happening, and trying debug crashed ?

Perhaps i'll try the key "groud", the problem is that i will need to attach script to each BSP ground, so it just complicated more the workflow

But seems the more secure way to do it for now.
