Cannot make my char climb.

Cannot think of how my char can grapple on platforms if falling and climb up then. This is a real pain in a... head.

Something like this?

Fall against the ledge corner while pushing towards the wall to grab it. Press Jjump to hop up onto the wall. Press Down while you're clinging to the ledge to drop straight down.

If you need comments on it I can do that, but it's pretty simple so you should be able to figure it out. Also, it's just a very basic example. It will need some polishing up, and obviously you'd have to do the appropriate sprites for it.

Hehe, thanks Deadeye! I feel a bit stupid after that!

One question though... Player is not fixed while hanging. How can I fix the player when he grabs on a surface?

Thanks Deadeye, that's a really cool example!

Seems like we think same way, Thomas!

Hey deadeye i've done something equal to yours in my game but the problem i have is with moving platforms , how can i make catching and hanging on a vertically\horizontal moving platform ?

I don't know what you mean by "not fixed." Could you elaborate?

You could give your player a PV that holds the platform's UID. Then update the player's position manually each tick relative to the platform's position. If the platform moves two pixels, set the player's position to position + 2, etc.

HAh that would work thx for the tip

Deadeye, I mean char falls a lil bit through the plat after grappling.
