My joystick controlled actor goes through the floor after collision. Dont know how to fix this, please help.
I've attached the demo file if someone could take a quick look, I would really appreciate it :)

    @Socks maybe you have a solution to this one, need some brilliance :wink:

    I'm not sure what the issue is, the actor 'player' didn't go through the floor (the lower 'wall' actor) when I previewed the project ?

    The Move Controller's movement was very strange, it was much better after deleting the Offset Constrain actor.

    @GreenfroggGames I agree with @Socks about the movement. That Offset Constrain actor shouldn't be necessary. You know the offset from the camera re-sizer actor, it shouldn't be necessary to have a separate offset attribute. I'll really try to get around to looking at the whole scrollable/universal issue soon.

    To fix your current problem, though, try enabling "Better collisions" in the player actor.

    @Socks It's fine when the actor rotation is at 90 or 270. But at let's say 120 degrees and moving down/left to right (or right to left) across the floor, the actor goes through a bit. @Armelline yeah that offset is wrong, forgot to change that. Better collisions didn't do anything I'm afraid :(

    Is it possible that the rotation constrain is causing the collide behavior to not work properly? Is there a a workaround the constrain rotation behavior?

    How do you want the player actor to rotate ?

    @Socks if the controlled actor was a ship, I want it to rotate so that its nose always points in the same direction as the joystick is pointed

    A ship ? As in a boat ?

    Rotate to Angle:

    Angle: game.controller rotation center -90

    Speed: 500

    Relative to Actor

    RTC and SOD = off (unchecked)

    @Socks I was thinking about a spaceship but its not important, a boat will do:) > @Socks said:

    This only works when rotating CCW, when rotating CW it starts to twitch.

    It worked fine for me.

    @Socks Mine is ok as long as I rotate the joystick slowly, when I move it faster it's like it gets stuck

  • GreenfroggGamesGreenfroggGames Member Posts: 224

    @Socks I restarted GS and now it works! Thanks
