While programming the controls for my game ,i got stuck on a collision problem which is pestering me for some times!!! Please help!
How can i keep my character walking on the ground of my level(created in a modelling package,so it is not a terrain)??!!When the height of the ground is the same everywhere,there`s no problem since i can position the character on it(Like PositionEntity character,0,fixedheightofcharacterabovegroud,0) and everything will work ok. But when it comes to varying gound levels,like climbing stairs or crossing bridges,then it gets messy. I tried this after some tries but it didn`t work(This code is ONLY only for lowering the character`s heigt):
y#=character current height
Entitytype character,1
Entitytype level,2
If Not(Entitycollided character,2) then Positionentity character 0,y#-.1,0
I first thought that it would test to see if the character is touching the ground and then reduce it`s height until it does but unfortunately it isn`t working. My character is half in the ground when i use this but when i walk DOWN the stairs. My characters height about the ground is reduced to that of the stairs but my character still half stuck in the ground. Please help!!!!!!
