Jump Node

This movement node launches a dynamic asset in a specified direction. See also Making Characters Jump.

This node requires the asset’s physics to be set to Dynamic.

Option Description
Name Type a custom name for this node, if needed.
Jump Force
  • Enter a numeric positive value in the Y axis field to change the jump height of the asset.
  • Enter a numeric value in the X and Z axis fields to launch the asset in a specified direction.
  • To make the Jump Force not affect a direction, delete the value in the axis fields until it displays none.
  • Range values
    • Enter a value in any of the range fields on the right to make the asset pick a random axis value.
    • The range value is both added and subtracted to create a minimum and maximum of possible outcomes.
    • For example, if you enter a value of 100 in the Y axis field and 50 in its range value field, a value between 50 and 150 will be selected during gameplay.

The Reset input will reset the amount of times this asset has jumped.
