Gravity and Jumps in Scratch

Unknown05212

Hii! I am a new scratcher(not that new, but still). I've been trying to use gravity and jumps in my projects recently. Anyone know how to make my sprite stop falling after landing on an object and also stop pausing midair?

when green flag clicked
forever
if <touching [ floor] ?> then 
if <not <key [ space] pressed?>> then
set [ velocity] to [0]
else
repeat (10)
change [ velocity] by (1)
end
end
else
change [ velocity] by (-1)
end
end

when green flag clicked
forever
change y by (velocity)
end

Hope this helps!

Note: It might be a little buggy but it should work good enough. Feel free to refine the jumping part of it as that is the buggiest.

You shoudl prbaly just look it up, but i would recomend something like this

change y by (YV)
if <touching [Floor] ?> then
change y by ((0) - (YV)
set [YV] to ((0) - (YV))
end

and forever change YV by like -0.1

Same wroks for XV

YV=Y velocicyty
XV=X Veoeltiy

i recommend you to watch griffpatch's platformer tutorials

or you could try something like this to prevent the sprite from looking like it's gliding up:

define ResolveCollision this is run without screen refresh
repeat until <not <touching [ground v] ?>>
change y by (1)
end

change [ awesomeness] by (1)

Hi, I need help figuring out how to make gravity compatible for this jumping script:

when green flag clicked
set [jump height v] to [13]
forever
if <key [up arrow v] pressed?> then 
set [jump velocity v] to (jump height)
repeat until <(jump velocity) = [0]> 
change y by (jump velocity) 
change [jump velocity v] by (-1) 
end 
repeat until <(jump velocity) = (join [-] (jump height))>
change [jump velocity v] by (-1) 
change y by (jump velocity)
end
