ive started working on a marble madness type game and i would like the ball that you are controlling to jump and ive managed to make it jump when you press space but sometimes the ball jumps a sky high and other times the ball almost doesnt jump at all. there is probably a better way tro script a jump the way i did, since im completely new to lite-c but anyways these are the lines of code concerning the jumping:

Code:
function jump()
{
	if (event_type == EVENT_FRICTION)
	{
		if (key_space)
		{
			if (!snd_playing(sound))
			{
				ball_jump.z = 60;
				sound = snd_play (impact, 100, 1);
			}
		}
	}
}

function redux()
{
	while (1)
	{
		if (ball_jump.z > 0)
		{
			ball_jump.z = - 1*time_step;
		}
	wait(-0.1);
	}
}


function main()
{
        pXent_setcollisionflag(ball, NULL, NX_NOTIFY_ON_TOUCH);
	ball.event = jump;
	redux();
        
        while (1)
        {
                pXent_addvelcentral(ball, ball_jump);
        }
}
