Rather than applying a discontinuous force to push it down, I recommend just directly computing the jump speed required to reach the desired jump height. Standard equations of projectile motion would do the trick.i want to be able to Control a jump by it's height not by the speed of the jump
Even with a large pushdown, the character should not get stuck in the floor. It uses continuous collision detection and the rest of the penetration should be resolved by regular collision response.#Edit: Also how can i avoid my character going through the floor? I know my idea will make him probably go down, even further down, i was thinking is there anyway to avoid that?, and if not, how could i make something like u do with the StepManager and just make him teleport to the appropiate height so he is not stuck on the floor??
Yeah about that the problem is that in mid air there is a slight second where he feels like he is floating in midair i want him to come down the moment he gets there, also i want the jump to be really fast.Norbo wrote:Rather than applying a discontinuous force to push it down, I recommend just directly computing the jump speed required to reach the desired jump height.

He doesn't get stuck but he does stay there for a second before recovering from the fall.Norbo wrote:Even with a large pushdown, the character should not get stuck in the floor.

Increasing the effective gravity will make jumps faster in general. If you don't want higher gravity for other objects, an extra acceleration could be applied to the character body specifically by adding (0, -extraAcceleration * dt, 0) LinearVelocity each update.Yeah about that the problem is that in mid air there is a slight second where he feels like he is floating in midair i want him to come down the moment he gets there, also i want the jump to be really fast.
Does 'stay there for a second' imply you cannot control the character? If so, that doesn't sound normal. There might be some configuration issue (scale, perhaps) or geometry issue. If you can reproduce the behavior in the latest BEPUphysicsDemos for me to look at, it could help.He doesn't get stuck but he does stay there for a second before recovering from the fall.
