Bounce in opposite direction with collision

Phaniel

How do I make an actor move in the opposite direction with the collision? I don't want to use the restitution option. How do i do it? I want it to bounce of with only the enemy not anything else.

I need to know as soon as possible!

Thanks!

Use the collide behavior & put some restitution on the other actor.

Phaniel

Here is how i want it. I have a main player. There is also an enemy. If the main player touches the enemy, it will bounce in the opposite direction with the collision. If the main player touches the ground, nothing happens. The main player only bounces off the enemy.

RedlerTech

right, so then make the ground have 0 restitution & you should be fine.

I did, but it still didn't work. I also put gravity(down) in the game. Is that why it doesn't work?

RedlerTech

nope, gravity shouldn't have an effect. In fact, gravity should fix your problem (a little) by creating less of a bounce.

joust use a collide rule

when player overlap / collide with actor
Collide

But have no rule for colliding with the ground.

You can also try changing the restitution of the ground to 0.

RedlerTech

you need to collide with the ground, if not it won't be a ground?

Phaniel

I changed the restitution of the main player to 1 and the restitution of the ground to 0. It still didn't work. Am I doing something wrong?

Is there a way that the main player can sense which side it is on the enemy?

check out t-shirt booths video tutorial "one way walls".

Sorry, but I can't seem to find the tutorial on "one way walls." Could you please give me the link?

Thanks so much!

Nevermind, I found it! Thanks so much!
