But I found that I can’t disable friction nor change my mass to the value I want (without geting changed by the volume). In 4 I would have full control of movements with collision. I found AddActorLocalOffset, it do almost right, but it stops completely on collision, so the character can’t move on slopes. So how can I move it with collision detection? In 3, if I added charactermovement I would go back to 2. To change CharacterMovementComponent behaviour need some quite good undertanding on how it works by reading the source code.

In my past experience developing games, I would do number 4 and create all the movement on a physical object, but in ue4 this does not seen to be the best aproach.įor ue4 I think number 1 or 2 to be the best options, but 1 is everything premade, so to implement jump height control I found myself getting into number 2.

I can see several ways to achieving this:ġ- Start from side scroller template and add code on top of the template characterĢ- Override CharacterMovementComponent and change its behaviourģ- Start from an empty pawn the do all the movement from scratchĤ- Start from an empty pawn with physics and apply forces can control the height of the jump (the longer the button press, the higher the jump).I’m new to UE4 and I find myself struggling to implement a Megaman X style movement for my character.
