Ramps & Jumps?

SteelCloverGames

Trying to create a ramp/jump. Are there any examples of how to get this to work?

I am new and searched a bit but could not find anything on how when a vehicle hits the ramp you can make it go up the incline and catch some air.

Can anyone help me?

Thanks!

you might try to make a flat object and then rotate it to form a jump. Then drive your vehicle up that ramp, the physics should work. You could even make the speed increase when touching the ramp to get an extra boost.

Thanks for the info. What do you mean by make a flat object? Do I need to give that object collision for the vehicle to go off the ramp?

also with the default physics will I need to add gravity to make the vehicle come back down?

Still trying to get the hang of all this and learn so hope you don't mind all my questions.

Thanks!

Ok I want to make my actor go up a ramp but the problem is, when I set a collision for my actor and the ramp and set rotation to 40, my actor goes up the ramp and keeps flying after it and speeds away. How do I make my actor go and down slope naturally?

You guys need to simulate Gravity. The best way to do this is to add an accelerate down behavior relative to the scene into each actor you want to be affected by gravity.
