Turn of physics but stay moveable?

Mattcus

I have two actors, with physics, one is the player, the other is a moving platform, I need the platform to move and the player stays still and jumps from one to the next. However the player actor pushes the platform actor down. I have tried changing physics settings in both actors and I can't find any way to stop physics on an actor while still being able to move it.
Please help

Thanks in advance.

Hey @Mattcus,
Attached is a moving platform template. Feel free to use. Hopefully it helps!

Is gravity on? We will need a bit more information than this - and you should have a look for some sample projects in the forums too... they can help a lot

I have added some that came from here...

Oh sorry for not providing enough information.

Gravity for the scene is off

The player has accelerate direction: 270 and acceleration: 200
Physics:
Density: 0.1
Friction: 3
Bounciness: 0.1
Fixed Rotation: false
Movable: True

The only thing the ground has is accelerate direction: 180 acceleration: 25
Physics:
Density: 1
Friction: 3
Bounciness: 0.1
Fixed rotation: true
Movable: true

I'll have a look at some of the example projects, thanks.

Oh, I should have said this in the initial post, but i don't need the player to move with the platform, in fact I don't want that at all. I need the ground to move underneath the player.

just use the interpolate behavior.

Your density can go way above 1.

"Density refers to the heaviness of the actor. A higher value will make the object harder to move by less dense actors. A value of 0 will make an object immovable but still affect other actors in the scene. Density can be set to any real positive number. (i.e.Density>= 0)"

Another person had this problem and upping the density fixed it.

Mattcus

Ok thank you, I wasn't sure what the scale was for the density, That's fixed it thanks!

Cool, glad to hear it, give a an Awesome or Like or Insightful or Agree on that one
