Smooth Jump Effect

[TuskiniiMan]

Hello, I need help! I need a smooth jump effect... I have this animations :

• Jump Initialization
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Jump
  • Actions
    • Unit - Add Crow Form to Jumper
    • Unit - Remove Crow Form from Jumper
    • Animation - Change Jumper flying height to 380.00 at 250.00
    • Trigger - Turn on Moving in Air <gen>
    • Wait 0.75 seconds
    • Animation - Change Jumper flying height to 0.00 at 400.00

• Moving in Air
  • Events
    • Time - Every 0.05 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 8, do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Unit - Move Jumper instantly to ((Position of Jumper) offset by 5.00 towards (Facing of Jumper) degrees), facing (Facing of Jumper) degrees
    • Wait 0.25 seconds
    • Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)

Now, I don't know... how to make the jump a smooth one

 

[Idance]

Things that will smooth your jump:

-Reducing periodic time (to 0:01 for example)
-Reducing the "towards" (3 for example)

Try both of 'em. But reducing towards reduces also the jump height, otherwise reducing periodic time increases your jump speed.

Well, for the first... One thing that can (At least after a small amount of time) cause 'lag' is that this trigger alone will leak about 160 times each second...

You need to read up on how to prevent and remove leaks

0.03125, not 0.1 xD

If you want to learn to remove memory leaks, read this tutorial.

0.03125, not 0.1 xD

0.03, not 0.03125. You can't use 0.03125 in GUI

You can.

• 20000/3125

I think..

 

[Nherwyziant]

You can.

• 20000/3125

I think..

Actually, it's 100/3125, and it's still not allowed in GUI, it will result 0.0300

• Time - Every (100.00 / 3125.00) seconds of game time <<0.0300 AW

Don't use waits for time-precise triggers. Use timers.

 

[Xbing]

you mean waits are not time precise and can be delayed?

 

[canons200]

wait ignore lag and pause game, the better choice is to use timer.

 

[SineCosine]

We need structs =/

 

[Crazy_Dead]

We need structs =/

We could just use something with an Z behind it. I know that.

 

[SineCosine]

Wha-- ?
I meant that we need structs to make jumps smooth and nice looking.

 

[Bogrim]

you mean waits are not time precise and can be delayed?

Waits are almost always 0.10 to 0.30 seconds off, about 0.27 seconds in average. There is an in-depth explanation if you search the forum.

Countdown timers follow the game precisely. When you need different triggers to work together at the same time, use timers for perfect coordination.
