Jump after falling off platform

[badchad024]

I was having problems with double jumping but figured out how to use the canjump variable and fixed it. Now im having a problem with anytime i run off the edge of a platform i can still jump. I have made it to where when collision with platform canjump=1; and when i press space canjump=0; maybe im doing something wrong please help!

Really what you want to do is to set your jump variable to 0 if you fall off the edge. The problem becomes trying to figure out when you are falling. But since you want to have double jump it isn't as easy as just seeing if the actor is falling. I usually use a different method which in the end makes it more convenient for this, but you can think about it this way. I'm going to assume you have been setting your jump variable to two to allow double jump. This means if you are falling when the jump variable is still two, then that means you fell from a platform (so you should set jump to zero). But if you are falling and jump is equal to one, that means you jumped to get there. Here's a way to determine if the actor is falling.
player -> Draw Actor -> Script Editor

Code: Select all

if(yvelocity>3) // you can change 3 to make it suit your game better
{
    // falling (you want to set jump to 0 if and only if jump is equal to 2
}

if(yvelocity>3) // you can change 3 to make it suit your game better

1 is the number that suites me best
