First time questions

This is my first time using game editor. I've been able to figure most of it out so far. Right now I'm just trying to make a simple platform game, but I have a few questions:
1.How can you adjust the speed of actors following paths?
2.How do you stop wall climbing (being able to infinite jump on the side of walls)?

Thanks in advance!

I think that the number of frames you set the path to divided by 60 is how many seconds it takes for the actor you apply that path to to complete it. So if you want them to be slower you would increase the number of frames for your path and to go faster you would decrease the number of frames in your path.

There are several ways to fix your side jumping, one is to create a wall actor. Right now your collision with ground/wall is probably set to all sides. Add a collision event for side of wall, and put this in the script editor.

Code: Select all
double yvel = yvelocity;
PhysicalResponse(MOVE_EVENT_ACTOR_ONLY, USE_CALCULATED_MASS, 1, 1, 0, 0);
yvelocity=yvel;


This should work. If you need anything explained, or it does not work in your setup, can you post a ged, or I can make a demo.
