Hi!!
I’m trying to achieve the clasical megaman jump movement… jump and fall animation…
there is a way to check if player isFalling() on EventGraph, that is good, but i cant find a way to check if player is jumping but not falling to make the animation change…
On ThirdPerson Template … on EventGraph there is a bool variable named IsInAir? , but it takes its value from IsFalling(), so i need to split it apart:
Jump → IsOnAir must be true… but IsFalling() must return false…
Fall → IsOnAir must be true… and IsFalling() must return true to…
In my case i need to declare 2 bools : IsJumping and IsFalling
I can figure out the ways i could try:
-
detect when jump button is pressed, if so, set IsJumping to true, that only for jumping… (falling is not a problem since IsFalling() native BP function is ok…)
-
check somehow the force or upward velocity of my character and manage it with range floats.
-
any other…?
Well, thanks…
Update:
IsFalling() function has nothing to do with its name… so IsFalling() returns if character is on air… not just falling… i figured out a way to calculate the time jump takes and then play the fall animation…
