So, I want to make it so when my character touches a hazard like spikes, they’ll get thrown the OPPOSITE direction they were headed towards them.
How would I check for this?
By the way, this is a sidescroller, so I’d have to check the Y velocity.
Help is appreciated.
Have you tried the Add Radial Impulse node? You can feed it the HitLocation of your EventHit.
I think you could check player velocity by GetVelocity and on collision use VInterp To to set new actor location
This is easy. Take your hit normal, (the face direction of the surface hit) and multiply that by a negative float value that feeds into add impulse node, and apply that impulse to your character.
Opps, forgot to connect it to the damage, but it doesn’t make a difference. It’s still only throwing the character from one direction.
Gahhhhh, I attached it to Hit Location by mistake, works perfectly now. Thanks!
No problem, you are welcom.
