Dead when falling from a platform
« on: June 26, 2014, 06:40:46 AM »
Hi!
I try to figure out how to kill the player when it's falling from a platform.
I try to compare speed, so when the speed is to high, the player die. And it's working.
The only problem is that it can also die if I jump.

So what I try do do, is following:

-When the player is falling, doesn't matter how high it is, the player is dead
-I can jump without any damage to the player, even if the player speed is to high

Exactly the same as the old classic Commodore 64 game Jumpman



Any ideas how to to this?
