Hey guys, got a bit of a problem here, if somebody could help me solve it it would be really awesome for me, because I'm pulling my hair out over it...

I have a terrain model that I made and sliced up into 16 different sections, each ten segments on a side (the terrain is the size of the grid). The problem is that, after I place them correctly in the editor and test the game, I can walk fine on the terrrain, its just that when I JUMP, depending on the speed of the player when he jumps, he will move at that speed constantly accross the terrain but will not be able to go left or right or be able to control it whatsoever.

I have tried everything to figure this out...

This is for a multiplayer game so Im not really worried about ai collision.

I have included some files in this post so you can test the map out to see my problem.

Again anything helps... I would greatly appreciate it if somebody gave me some insight on the issue...

Try divide the segments into size of 3 by 3. if you look at Cosmic Prophets country time pack. His terrain segments are divide into 3x3 units. That should yield the best results.

Okay, thanks Landman, I'll try that and see if it works. I'll touch back here on the results.

check your collisionmode in the fps/fpe and try around with it, maybe it helps, seems to depend on model and location.

You could check out this thread here, it may be helpful.

http://forum.thegamecreators.com/?m=forum_view&b=21&t=197834&p=0

However it may be going a little bit off of your topic, the idea is there.

You could disabled jump.

But this is one of the contributing factors why I stopped my game Robolegs in fpsc and changed to another engine. Check out the WIP thread. There are huge terrains with no problems at all.

we are ALL waiting for the next beta to get this bug fixed while building more and more maps.^^
jump&run on objects is a main function for the engine, so this will definitely be fixed. dont worry, just wait for the next update.
