Hi. i made an object that moves up to down and it has all the collisions set but when i jump on it if it is going up I have to jump to stay on or I will fall through. While it goes down though it is fine. Can someone please help me figure it out. I can post the code down if you want. Thanks for the help.

God help me, Please.

So My player jumps on a moving step. The step moves up and down automatically. If I'm on the step going down it works ok but if it goes up my player is stuck in the same spot and the step moves right through him.

God help me, Please.

The moving step is an elevator. But when the elevator goes up my person falls through. I want to know how to fix that. I want my person to move with the y position of the elevator. And yes I tried

Even that didn't work. I'm guessing that some code in my game is countering this code. Any Help? Thanks.

God help me, Please.

I would suggest that you increase the Y position of your character until there are no more collisions. That will be a bit jerky, but might let you get on with other things while you decide what to do about elevators.

Sparky's has a couple of options - I'm sure the advanced collision stuff, like automatic response position would help out or take care of it for you. One option I would probably try though is working out the exact Y height where the player is standing, from the top of the players head to below their feet. That way, you can just set the Y position to suit that collision - like move the elevator then work out the height of the floor, with an intersection check. That might keep it smooth and accurate, but it depends a great deal on how your handling collisions.

Exactly how should I do that? Should i print my objects position on screen?
