Howdy Gs developers, lightbulb here, by using the "mega template" from POM's now i have the double jump feature for my platformer game, however i want to be able to do the jump of wall, i've already searched on the forums, but i haven't found a that useful template, is there any out there, otherwise is anybody willing to give me a detailed explanation on how to achieve this,

THANKS A LOT

    nice, however i wanted it when pressend e.g spacebar jump automatically to the opposite side, while practically on middle air and colliding with wall, trying to figure it right now, but without any luck :(

    I've been working on a platformer too, lately, and the wall jump was a much bigger problem than I'd expected. If you want to be able to jump off the walls outwards, I'd make that behavior separate from your normal jumping behavior. Also, you'll have to be careful making sure your actor doesn't jump off the walls when on the floor also touching a wall, unless that's what you want.

    Overall, when the actor's touching the wall, but not the floor, move at a 45° or so angle outward from the wall. You'll probably want to be able to jump off of walls forever, so make sure the normal jumping setting doesn't turn off that ability after 1 or 2 jumps.

    I feel like that's about it. In mine, I made the walls separate actors altogether than the floors, but it's all a matter of preference. If you make them part of the same actor, however, it will take a lot more math, which is, in addition to tedious, often times very bad for performance.

    Start by making a perfectly vertical wall jump figured out, then work on adding the jump out, then tweak it, then bug fix.
