Jump (Beginner Question)

by Carlos Beltran · in Torque 3D Professional · 02/28/2011 (12:59 pm) · 2 replies

hi,

I am developing a multiplayer game which is not a fps, In my server code I have this 
%client.camera.setOrbitObject($SpawnObject, mDegToRad(50) @ " 0 0", 0, 20, 20);
so the camera is always following the player.

I am not going to use the mouse, so I have my binds and I replaced the binds that it had. I also use commands to server for movement. But what I am trying to do is a command to server that makes my player to jump. I do not know how to do it. If someone can help me I would be very grateful.

Thanks in advance and sorry for my english.

The player jumping is handled through the movement binds. Look for the spacebar bind in default.bind.cs and you'll see:
moveMap.bind( keyboard, space, jump );

and that jump function just does:

function jump(%val)
{
$mvTriggerCount2++;
}

Hence, trigger2 is the jump button...

Hi Bryan, Thanks for your reply. I tried to do that and it did not worked. What I am doing now is this:

%player.applyImpulse( %player.getPosition(), "0 0 1000" );

Is this ok?

I put This code in the player.cs file, in the server folder.
