collision properties for platform jump objects

Mainman002

Is there a way to use the (export var jump_object = '') method on ground blocks to choose what object your character can jump on? In the same subject could that be used for Solid / Fall through objects?

Yes you can use node object as export variables.But than you only can apply one object as the object where the character can jump on.You may should use [b]node groups[/b] than you can calculate the collision only for nodes in this group.another approach would be to check out collision layers. I never worked with them (so I cant give you detailed instructions) but I know they can solve the problem

ok cool I will look into those methods. coming from blender the way the collisions worked for my prototype was like having cubes around my player that would detect if a property existed like Solid, Jump, and stuff like that. . . that way no matter what object you added it would mainly be the collision object that handled how the player acted with it. . . my problem right now was following a tutorial that was very simple. . . I can't move rigid body (ball like objects) because I setup a no move ray around my player that was detecting everything you collide with (I created a problem to fix a problem) Lol tutorial link:

I wanted to do sth. similar too. So maybe I will create a simple template for you than you can have a look how I would do it. (I try to comment almost every line of code so It sould be aeasy to understand).Than you can recreate this template on your own and work on it to make it a full game.(I can start on it in one week)
