My actor can't move on moving platform (elevator)...

WTDeveloper

Hey GS Community,

I have a big problem.
In my game I have an moving platform like an elevator up and down.
When my actor jump on the platform, I can't move the actor with my control buttons.
What's wrong??
It would be great, if anyone could help me.

Thanks

The platform are with the correct atributtes?
You have to make a relation between the two actor, your player and the platform player with the correct ground property.
Apologize about my english.

Yes everything is fine,but i can only move my actor when the platform stop moving

mrpacogp

If you want, i can test your app, sometimes we miss anything easy, i have that issue alot of times.
maybe its a little date grong
maybe you need to edit some property when the player is moving up and down, for gravity i think...

I have the same problem now

GLGAMES

you probably have some constrains running when character collides elevator then constrain character to elevator platform or something? that's why it's not moving anywhere else.

mrpacogp

For me its working at this time, but i have to use constrain for linear motion x to 0, because when collides with my actor it moves to x,y direction, and i want only Y direction

SlickZero

Are you using interpolate for the platform movement? The main actor will not move correctly if it is on it, and the platform is in the middle of an interpolation. You'll need to use the move behavior within rules.

Hm... i have to test more that, thank for the tip SlickZero.
