Make my bots jump

How do I make my bots jump?

I have tried %obj.jump(); and that didn't do anything... As well as %obj.trigger[2] = true;

    Try this:

    %obj.setImageTrigger(2,false)

    That didn't work... Neither did setting it to true.

    i called it on the player as well, and it didnt do anything.. I tried from the console as well, usign the numbered ObjectId and it didnt work.

    %obj.setImageTrigger(2,1);
    This worked for me, hope this helps.

    Edit: you need to have something mounted on the 2nd image slot if you want them to jump i think.

    I just skipped the image trigger junk and directly applied an impulse to the bots.

    There is a function Player.applyImpulse...

    Call player.dump(); and you will find it in there.
