Gravity: Directions

[legocacher]

Is it possible to make the gravity on an object be a direction other than down? Like say you have this super cool action hero dude who can walk on ceilings. How would you make it so he could do that?

What movement are you using? Cutom/Inbuilt, ect?

sorry, MMF2 is what i meant by game.

Well then no. You can't change the gravity with that movement. Best hopes is either custom movement or PMO. There are a few examples that come with the Platform Movement Object to get you started. For agrvity all you would have to do is change it. I can't remember if it works sideways though...

[legocacher]

What is custom movement? And what is PMO?

Custom movement means you set the movement to Static and then manually code a movement by setting the object's position in the events. This allows much more freedom and the ability to fix the bugs that the default movements have.

PMO = Platform Movement Object.

Oh ok...sounds hard...might work tho...thanks!

It will be somewhat easier with the Platform Movement Object.

The platform movement object doesn't support any other gravity except down, however the platform widget made by nifflas does. I suggest you check it out. To change the gravity you just change the x and y gravity variables of the player. Here is the link.
