However, now neither gravity nor hit detection work and only the standing animation plays, movment animations do not play.

I missed a set of lines to be removed: * lines 179 through 214 (not to be replaced) * line 167 and line 173 (to be replaced later by setting the animation sets) Other things that should be removed: * lines 62 through 69 (jumping and falling deal with vertical movement) * lines 73 through 78 or lines 88 through 113 (one or the other -- both add horizontal movement by direction of key pressing) No key should be checked more than once in your code. I count 3 times where you check the "right" key in your original code and 4 times in your badly revised code. Please start back with original code remove and replace appropriate codes and post the entire class for review and further changes to be made. Prayerfully, it will at least compile at that point.

Correct, animations are incomplete at this point -- we will get to that. As far as gravity and hit detection, let's hold off on those changes as yet -- stay with original codes for that until animating is done. One thing at a time is always best.

Yes. The code you put in the onGround method is the entire vertical movement code (should replace jump, fall, onGround and any other methods, dealing with vertical movement). You can put that code in a method called moveVertically and call it from the act method. But, like I already said, we can deal with that later.

Yes. Remove lines 11, 32, 45, 75, 78, 85 through 93, 111 through 119 and lines 146 through 185. Change the name of your onGround method (line 121) to moveVertically and add the following line to your act method:
?

moveVertically();

Jumping should work properly now, correct? Bopping head? and landing?

2018/12/27

#
Am no, when i try to jump i teleport under the platform, however i asume that is because ive added +30 to this line: setLocation(getX(), actor.getY()-vDir*(actor.getImage().getHeight()+getImage().getHeight())/2+30); I did that so i am not on top of the platform but a little inside and in front of it to give it this somewhat 3 Dimensinal feeling. Is there a way to keep that or would i have to change it back?

Remove the '+30'. Maybe you can draw the top part of the platform on the background image so it is not part of an actor to intersect with.

Well i have a scrolling background as well so i dont think that would work that well. I guess i can remove it for now but i would like to keep it. Also ramps, these would also be a goal of mine but for now i just want to get the game working.

Why not? It should scroll along with the platform (unless you are trying to add a 3D effect with the background also).

I was thinking about adding parallax yes however i will probably not considering i am not able to that much. either way, what do i have to do to get the colison and animations done, afterall i have still a couple more animations i want to do. So what do i have to do now? Also are there other ways to work around the problem with the plattforms? As you could probably asume im trying to create a game like megaman x or gunvolt.
There are more replies on the next page.
