Max Speed X and Max Speed Y

ToastKitten

Let's say you have a character that uses the linear velocity function to move. If you want that character to jump at his full height with max speed enabled, he cannot be moving to the left or right at all. With the X and Y max speed options, you could be going however fast to the left or right and still jump to your highest point.

not a bad idea but your example actually does not have to do with max speed. Using change velocity and move do not allow two movements at the same time. You need to use acceleration. Here's what I would do:

RULE - when keyboard right is pressed
-----Rule - when linear.velocity.X is < 300
---------accelerate 2000 0 to scene

RULE - when keyboard left is pressed
-----Rule - when linear.velocity.X is < 300
---------accelerate 2000 1800 to scene

Change the 300 to what you like. This method feels like move (because of the high acceleration it will quickly get to 300 and then stay at that speed). The key is to play with DRAG and FRICTION.
