Modify gravitation

by Henrik Mauler · in Torque Game Engine · 03/03/2005 (3:01 am) · 4 replies

Is it possible to modify the gravitation in the game? I want the whole world to be turned by 90 degrees, the player would be pulled towards the wall instead of towards the floor and the horizon would be vertical instead of horizontal. How can I modify the gravitation in such a manner?

Perhaps you could create all your models sideways instead?

I believe there is a gravity changing mod somewhere in resources, and coupled with the advanced camera mod, you might be able to get what you are looking for.

Nate's probably got the right idea. It would be the easiest way to go about it, unless you plan on having terrain in there (though that wouldn't really make much sense to me). Build a house, rotate the whole thing, decorations and all, 90 degrees, and place accordingly. Bam! Sideways gravity.

It's kind of hackish, but you could also make a really big PhysicalZone, set the gravityMod to 0, and put in an appliedForce that pushes everything in the direction you want your gravity to go.
