How you doing Rocket?

[Rocket Punk 476]

432911

Well, waiting for some help for a game engine I'm currently programming. You?

[DasCapschen 7,766]

432912

You're programming your own game engine?

Cool, what you need help with? Maybe I can help

Well, I'm making my engine on Unreal Engine, just using it as a base for the graphics and a notch for the physics, but I can't find a way to make a pegasus fly when pressing the jump button while in mid-air.

Hey Katie welcome to CtaM

yes I know it's Caps

Yes it's an 'o' sounds but it's more "Scandinavian"

Ah alright.

well you should be able to check if you character touches the floor after pressing jump.

UE4 automatically performs floor-checks each tick (if you use the Character class and didn't all write it yourself), so you can query if you're touching the floor.

If you are, perform the jump function, else call the fly function.

https://docs.unrealengine.com/latest/INT/API/Runtime/Engine/GameFramework/ACharacter/index.html

if you do write it yourself, you should be able to trace downward by half your characters height and then check if you collided with something (make sure to ignore your character while tracing!)

if you did collide with something, it's probably floor. to be more sure that it is floor, only trace for world static.

You're welcome, sounds like you know quite a bit of coding/programming stuff, you should speak to Das Capschen, I'm surprised he's not about
