How to change gravity when hitting different actors?

poopdecksweeper

Does anyone know how to change gravity in different areas of a scene when hitting different actors?

The game is a water game and I want to change the actor to have no gravity in water, but when the actor jumps out of water then you change his gravity to bring him back in the water.

Any help?

youll want to use a accelerate behavior in the down direction to act as gravity

Create a boolean called gravOff set it to false

Have your accelerate down behavior in a rule when attribute gravOff = false

then whenever you want to turn gravity off, change attribute gravOff to true, then change it back to false when you want it to take effect again

So for the water example you gave you would have a rule like so:

When actor overlaps or collides with water
-change attribute gravOff to true
Otherwise
-change attribute gravOff to false

I did that, but then I am using the control template that was included with the creator and I need to have the gravity override the controller. I don't know which attribute to mess with when dealing with the controller.
