After adding shadows to my model...my suspicion that he was floating was confirmed. I looked at another post here about floating models, but the only answer given was that "something should be a negative number instead".
I'm using the "Improved Player Movement" script from the wiki (
http://www.opserver.de/wiki/index.php/Improved_Player_Movement )
While I think I understand the basics of c_trace...I'm certainly no expert. This is what I'm getting:
I can move my player just fine....but he's always that high above my terrain.
Snippets of the code are
//determine player height
c_setminmax(my);
wait(1);
var feedheight = -my.min_z;
//check distance to ground
grounddist = c_trace(my.x, vector(my.x, my.y, my.z-10000), IGNORE_ME|IGNORE_PASSABLE)-feedheight;
if(grounddist > 0 || movedir.z < 0)
{
//gravity acceleration
movedir.z += fallacc*time_step;
}else
{
movedir.z = 0;
}
//apply gravity
my.z -= minv(movedir.z*time_step, grounddist);
if(grounddist-minv(movedir.z*time_step, grounddist) == 0)
{
//jump
if(key_space)
{
movedir.z = -jumpacc;
}
}
Any thoughts?
