Climbing a ladder

[pavel329]

I am making an older donkey kong game.
like the one where mario is called jumpman.


I have the levels set up and everythng is great.
But idk how to make it where when mario pushes up while next to or on the ladder.He actually goes up.

So how do i make him go up the ladder?

Like This...I Think

Create A Variable Called Ladder
Mario -> Key Down (Up) -> Script Editor

Code: Select all

If(Ladder == 1)
{
      y = y - 5;
}

Mario -> Collision (Ladder) -> Script Editor

Code: Select all

Ladder = 1;

Mario -> Collision Finish (Ladder) -> Script Editor

Code: Select all

Ladder = 0;

I Hope This Helps

I Just Like To Take The Easy Way Around Things, I Know Theres A Way Complicated Way To Do The Same Thing

[pavel329]

Lol same here.


Oh and do you know how to make it where i have to push up first to make him climb it?

I don't think the key down function would work here.


Is it something like collision state or that kinda thing?

I Don't Know How To Use Collision State Things hmm Ill Sleep Over It

lol no i didn't mean I HAD to use them.
I was just wondering how to make it where i have to push up to go up the ladder.Not just if i collide i magically fly up the ladder.
