Jetpack script help

Hey,

I’ve been trying to add a jetpack style script to my character controller (first person).

I’ve taken a couple of the scripts from these forums, but when I use them, all trackers point up as if it’s working, but I actually stay grounded.

Unsure of what I’m doing wrong, as it’s essentially just the basic fps controller.

Can anyone help? (I’m applying it to the controller, not the graphics, if anyone wants to ask)

The lerpz platformer tutorial contains a working jetpack if you are interested.

Yup, did that one. I may be wrong, but does that not come bundled in a larger controller? I didn’t fancy going through a character controller I couldn’t understand to find it…

Well, no offense… but… that’s kind of what you’re going to have to do at one point or another. There are only so many easy work arounds. You’re eventually going to have to take a script that has what you want in it and completely dissect it till you can figure out exactly what’s going on and how it does what you want. You could always just try to completely come up with the solution on your own using your natural inventiveness, however, that doesn’t seem to be working quite well for you or you wouldn’t have posted this. That’s when you gotta rip a script apart. It’s what we all do.

You should really fully understand lerpz before you go make an RPG. It has just about everything you might need to know in it.

I did the lerpz thing quite a few times, and I understand what it tries to teach, but I think there could be a lot more, looking at the script.

Right now I’;m not working on my RPG, I’m working on a simpler project with a friend, which just happens to involve jetpack control. I’ve written it all (including flying enemy ai, annoyingly…) except this last bit, and I’ve not been able to do it so far, so I thought I’d ask.

Can anyone at least point to which script I should be looking out for (I’m redownloading the lerpz thing, I’ll see if I can actually work through one of the controllers this time…)
