Coding a bridge in mmf.

[Flare]

I have finally coded the bridge in the 360 engine but it doesn't run smooth the character jumps kinda when walking on it, does any one have any suggestions?

First off, tails sprite, ownage.

Secondly, I saw a bridge tutorial like that one the old clickteam forums. I'll see if I can nab it. Also, it might help to post your code.

Ok, well I have a active object for each bridge part.

If the character is on an part of the bridge it lowers until it touches a sensor and the rest of the bridge parts have this formula

For bridge part 2:

Y= ( Y( "Bridge 1" ) / 2 ) + ( Y( "Bridge 3" ) / 2 )

I think I got it working If I I make sure the sensor isn't two low so the bridge doesn't stretch too much, but I am wondering If I can be made smoother

Hmm.. did you try using smaller parts? The Tutorial I mentioned worked rather well. I'll see if I can cook up something.

I bet I know your problem. Right now you probably have the bridge set to change position at no specific rate, just relative to your player. Add a bit of delay in there (i'd say 00"02 ~ 00"07) to make the bridge feel a little more realistic, and it'll probably fix that jump problem too.
