Trying to code a lift...Need Help

This is the same error when standing still and the door will go through you.

You can detect that the player is on the platform using a trigger or something and then move the characters position up. Use a kinematic body for the platform.

Im not on the dev PC atm, but this is something we have wanted to build for some time.

Some games, don't even allow you to move around in the elevator as it moves as the Y position of the characters are coded to give the correct feel. Look at the original mass effect.

However, we still need to apply a force in the character when something presses against it to move it out of the way instead of going through it.

I have done just this before in several engines, the principle of using a sliding door open/close script usually does the trick with the platform been the door and moves xx in the Y direction.

I have also had issues in the past with elevating platforms and the physics... if your stood on the platform and it moves then you should move with it due to the physics been applied to the platform moves with it (not tested this with skyline yet).

The sliding door script usually works like

It seems like the rigid body physics is not following the platform when it moves? maybe? maybe not?

Yea I believe this is the same as the doors m8

Think a dev should look at this because if you apply physics to an object it should move with said object.

Say a scene where a car comes down the street and hits the player, this should not be over complicated with having to code the ridged body move as well, with every bump in the terrain (road) would have to be coded as well, maybe a off switch for the ridged body to follow or not? just in case someone requires it not to follow in the future?

yeah, will take a look this week. We will be fixing all the forum bugs appearing from the past 2 releases that still stand, then w will release a new patch on top Think i will make a topic on this

The characters can be moved by doors and elevators. The doors are quite smooth, but the elevators make the characters shake as you move up, little strange to look at, but its better than falling through the floor.

This will be apart of the next release.
