I need some help figuring out how to get my sprite to jump. I've looked around the forum and have found some sample code to make your sprite jump but most of the code is for DB, DBPro or FPS, and i haven't been able to find one for dark GDK. I did read one about looping and increasing frame until it reaches a predetermined height and then just do the reverse to get it to come down but I'm still not clear on how to do that.

here is what i was trying to do but it doesn't really work

when it reaches max height it freezes and i'm not sure how to make it come back down.

You should make a global variable and the set the variable to some value when it reaches the max height. Then you check if the variable have that value and if so, make the player fall down. Like this:

also, what if i want the sprite to jump forward or backwards, could i just offset the sprite by some angle variable (180 - 360 for left to right & the reverse for right to left):



something to that affect. any suggestions?

To make the game more realistic use real gravity equations. A constant rise and fall seems dull.

Gravity class:



Jumping:



Falling:
