Title: Player jumping: Add force 2d player jumping
Post by: Zersion on January 12, 2018, 01:00:33 AM

Hello everyone.

I am using add force 2d for one of my characters to jump. But whenever I press the button, the player technically teleported to the middle of the air, instead of gliding to a higher y position smoothly. I have done several experiments with force in add force 2d, mass and gravity in rigidbody 2d, and I found out that no matter what they are the character still only teleports instead of "jumping". Is this just a glitch? Or I should be able to fix this by adjusting some settings?

Hi,
You have probably some wrong settings.
Can you show your fsms/states/actions (images/or video)

You can also maybe check this tutorial to get you stated :

Hi.
On rigidbody set 'Gravity scale to 1
and on the 'Add Force' action, set the y value to about 200.

Then adjust slowly the value to your needs.
