And that platforming thing I'll fix right now, and email.

One problem with doing it this way is that this jump engine can't handle small blocks clumped together (as in just randomly throwing shapes together with the square tool). The getBounds jump engine can handle small blocks.

None the less, it's a good engine for people new to flash.

I don't really see that problem, but I guess that's just with the graphics on my end. Oh well, no use criticising the different methods, as both have their pros and cons. I was just bored one night and started coding and an hour later I got what you see.

Yea, they're both useful. Yours can scale up circles and triangles, and mine can detect smaller blocks. These are both really good aspects of our engines.

I dunno if you fixed this or not, but when I'm scrolling I go through a platform if it's standing vertically. How can I fix this?

You're gonna have to IM about that one. You need to tell me step by step what happens.

I figured out a way to get the jumping engine to scale objects...

It's pretty simple really...

I e-mailed you the working .fla. Now the code has comments on it.

Hey Rystic if you have a .fla of the engine I can post it on my website if you like... Email it to me and I'll put your logo in and slap the thing up for you. I put a front page post with the base engine code on my site but an FLA would be alot better.

Thanks.
Jack.

The problem is that your block is to skinny make it have more height and
your character shouldnt go through.

Yea. Also, I finished that engine that let's you jump smaller jumps if you don't hold down space. I'll mail that.

Hey Rystik I was wondering if you know some script for enemies or walls
that would work with this script.

OK! I have posted this engine on my website for download... you can pick it up in the downloads section of http://www.jacksmack.com

Here is a more direct link if you don't care about helping me by looking at a few ads on the way...
More direct link

Hope this helps some people.
Jack.

P.S. rystic if you send me any updated engines I will post those as well... just F.Y.I.

Depends on what you want exactly.

well i was thinking of enemies that would shoot lasers, jump,and walk around. My character attacks with a sword so im thinking when my character attacks them they would die.

Ohh I almost forgot your side scrolling code is not working for me and I use flash mx 2004.

Fuck,when I post the block script into the MC it just pops up with all these fucking errors.HELP ME

Just thought that i would help keep this topic alive.

WOW ! THANKS ! this is so easy and so great ! tHx !!!!!!!

Sorry I haven't been posting. I was banned from the forums for about seven days by Shrapnel. Never again will I post in any other forum....

Anyway, if you want me to make enemies, you'll need to send the graphics, first (unless you want little circles shooting squares). Then I'll do the code. IM with MSN messenger and give me the graphics.

As for the side scrolling, well, it's hard to help because I can't open the files you send me (I use MX). Instead, I'll send you the working file I have.

Ahhh, yes. It feels great to be back..

Sure. I realize now that I should've included code for enemies, collectables, health, etc... Most people can't just make a game with the engine. They need the stuff, too.

CooL !!!! when will you send the AS here ??

your my hero ! ;-)

You are an awesome actionscripter. I really admire people like you Rystic. Maybe one day we can make a game together if you want

Whoa nice code,i am virtually useless with codes
