Hi,

I'm having constantly problems to make a player script with good behavior when it comes to gravity and climbing stairs.

A simple ego perspective player script without any gravity:
Code:
function control_player()
{
   while(my.skill1 > 0)
   {
       VECTOR move_dist;
       move_dist.x = (key_w - key_s) * 15 * time_step;
       move_dist.y = (key_a - key_d) * 15 * time_step;
       move_dist.z = 0;
       
       c_move(my, move_dist, NULL, GLIDE + IGNORE_PASSABLE);

       my.pan -= MOUSE_SENSIBILITY * mouse_force.x * time_step;

       vec_set(camera.x, my.x);
       camera.z += EYE_HIGHT;
       camera.pan = my.pan;
       camera.tilt += MOUSE_SENSIBILITY * mouse_force.y * time_step;

       wait(1);
   }
}


Now I wanted to know how you are implementing a good gravity system that allows to walk on stairs? I know that there are many ways how this can be done and I know that there are many threads about this topic but I didn't managed to get a good result with any of the informations I got.

I don't want to use PhysX and I don't want to write my own collision system. All I want to use is c_move() and c_trace(). Additionally the code shouldn't be too complex (it's not important that the result is 100% perfect).

Thanks for sharing your experiences laugh
