Continuous jump - i.e. not stopping mid-jump

[oobanoob]

Dear all,

If a player has the platform behaviour/type, is there a way you can make him jump naturally, i.e. finish the jump whether or not the jump key is released half way through.

I'm thinking more Jet Set Willy than Mario if that makes sense to anyone?

Many thanks

I dont really understand, does your character drop when u release the keyboard key? Anyway this is really hard since we dont know what movement you are using etc. Best way is to attach your mfa and someone might look at it.

Not sure about the built in movements since they tend to approximate the MARIO style of jumping. This sounds like a case where you want to make your own movement code from scratch.

And to clarify, you mean like Ghosts n Goblins, where pressing jump guarantees the player makes a full jump? Unlike MARIO where your jump height and distance are based on how long you hold a button?
