So my player models collision only works correctly if there 5 units in the air.

If my players are directly on the floor they can not move.

Here is the basic set up I have for collision

I'm guessing there is a collision box that is probably 5 units to big.

it may be the models positioning locator is set lower than the model itself and you need to reexport your model or set pivot point elsewhere in code

Well I did that and still have the same problem. This I can fool the players by the camera position but during animated in game movies I can't fool anyone.

I'm not setting them with anything as the collision code works. I'm not sure what to set them to as they are dynamic. Always moving.

pretty sure its the pivot point but the type of collision may have an effect

do you have any of the games packs so you could examine both the models and code

from memory i think the pivot should be at the bottom of the model

sorry my hands are cactus or ide go through my stuff that solved it

Ok, I figured it all out but now cant climb stairs.

I will explain

So When we collect the old position first the y must match the new y and also match the raycast amount in order to be directly on the floor.

Here is a good example

This took me a whole day to figure out.

Now how to figure out a way to climb the stairs.

you do realise if you use character controllers all of that is taken care of https://www.appgamekit.com/documentation/Reference/3DPhysics.htm

lol

I just tried a character controller and my frames went way down, like to 20 to 30 frames with no cap

I will just stick with my code that runs at a perfect 60 frames with perfect collision.

Just need to figure out a slope

I hate experiments like this because it takes away from real work to my application.

But I fully implicated the character controller and here is the results.

Many times with each load my player model would load out side of the level.

Every once in a while the frames will drop to almost nothing until I moved the character controller.

When I rotate my doors the character controller can not pass through the door as it still was recording the collision somehow. Many problems that I'm sure have work arounds but to much for me to keep track of.

I think what I can do is add some kind of slope model to the stairs and make it invisible.

Other than that stairs are not a good idea in appgamekit.

stairs are quite possible as you can see in one of my incomplete projects
the escalators are really just stairs

Did you use regular collision like I am? Or a character controller? Either way I decided just to fool the players and have them 10 units in the air. It works well and the camera is close enough to look like there on the floor.

By the way, that looks like a fun game. I would like to play it.

Thanks.

please let us know how you go with it
btw the scene was setup up in blender using a modified version of blinks scene splitter
the new scene splitter has two types of path finding one is perimeter based and the other
invisible blocks used as path points. this is all dependant on how they are named in
blender before the scene is exported and there is code that imports/exports it

it started as a kinda elevator action crossed with a microsoft building full of zombies nowonder win 10 is bad lol

Well I do know people love repetitive zombie games.

One game came to mind when watching the video.

That was plants versus zombies. Now if you could make this like that somehow with zombies versus papper or something similar that would be great.

I will look at the code today, I just got home.

Ok so I looked and noticed that the position was different in your code and the size of the models are sized for everything.

So I lowered my player models before export and now there perfectly on the floor and go up the stairs perfect with perfect collision.

I guess appgamekit does not have the same position setup as other programs.

It is 15 units down in fragmotion and it works great.
