walking speed sometimes changes, as does jump height?

[PooAs]

i recently changed my framerate from 30 to 60
because of bullet missing enemy..etc
...
now when the actor is walking every 3 seconds or so he speeds up then slows down
and on top of that when he jumps he jumps higher and faster so ifyou keep jumping you will eventually jump past the screen and die. lol
help?

here is my actor script..

Code: Select all

char*key=GetKeyState();
int spd = 5;
yvelocity += gravity;
if(damage > 100)DestroyActor("Event Actor");
if(wt > 0)wt--;
else
if(key[KEY_LEFT] == 1 && key[KEY_RIGHT] == 0)
{
    if(j == 0 && xvelocity > -spd)xvelocity--;
    if(j == 1)x -= spd;
    if(ld == 1)
    {
        ld = 0;
        af = 1;
    }
    if(af == 1)
    {
        ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "RANDAL- pistols left walk 1", FORWARD);
        af = 0;
    }
}
if(key[KEY_LEFT] == 0 && key[KEY_RIGHT] == 1)
{
    if(j == 0 && xvelocity < spd)xvelocity++;
    if(j == 1)x += spd;
    if(ld == 0)
    {
        ld = 1;
        af = 1;
    }
    if(af == 1)
    {
        ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "RANDAL- pistols right walk 1", FORWARD);
        af = 0;
    }
}
if(key[KEY_LEFT] == 0 && key[KEY_RIGHT] == 0)
{
    af = 1;
    if(ld == 0)ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "RANDAL pistol left", FORWARD);
    else ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "RANDAL pistol right", FORWARD);
}
if(key[KEY_LEFT] == 1 && key[KEY_RIGHT] == 1)
{
    af = 1;
    if(ld == 0)ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "RANDAL pistol left", FORWARD);
    else ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "RANDAL pistol right", FORWARD);
}
if(j == 1 && key[KEY_z] == 1)
{
    if(key[KEY_LEFT] == 1)xvelocity = -spd;
    if(key[KEY_RIGHT] == 1)xvelocity = spd;
    yvelocity = -(gravity * 13);
    j = 0;
 
}

and when i turn motion compensation off the jump thing stops but eveerything is slow
even on 120 fps

Lol you don't need 120 frames. Your first problem, i think, is that you are using a physical response with the ground/platform, right? Physical response affects xvelocity. On the key>keyright, use "x+=4;" instead of xvelocity.
Solid x values like that won't be affected by the physical response.

And the second thing....sounds like you're moonjumping. Use a variable 'canjump'. Enable it when he collides with ground, disable it when jump button is pressed. And on jump button

Code: Select all

if (canjump == 1){yvelocity -= whatever;}

(with jumping, you do want to use yvelocity instead of y-=n.)

[PooAs]

how would i add that to my script^^
lol
as all the moving atributes are in the script above

To make your bullet dont miss your enemy you can use directional_velocity
DST right, physical response which use calculated will affects xvelocity, try to use specify

[PooAs]

thats bee-ant!
ok the first part worked

directional_velocity = 18;
but
directional_velocity = -18;
stuffs up it like creates the actor and it just shakes heaps???
...
also i didnt get the second half of your comment lol
thanks
pooAs

No...your directional_velocity direction depend on your angle. For example if you wanna make your bullet move to the right, use this code

Code: Select all

angle=0;
directional_velocity=18;

If you wanna make your bullet move to the left, use this code

Code: Select all

angle=180;
directional_velocity=18;

To move up angle=90; ,down angle=270; and so on...
Here's what I mean with use specify

[PooAs]

thanks heaps bee-ant
you really are a god among men in this world of game-editor lol
thanks again
