I'm working on a game that is a constant side scroller. I move the the viewpoint and sprite like this



Jump



I want to use the impulse function because it makes the character jump look smooth and not choppy. The problem is when I try to use impulse function the setspriteX interferes with it.



Has anyone run into this issue? Other thoughts on moving the character with the screen and using impulse?

You cannot add impulse if you are constantly setting the position manually. You need to either set the player velocity in x and add impulse in y , then set the view offset based on the sprite position OR set everything manually and don't use physics.

Setting the sprite position always messes with dynamic physics sprites I'm afraid. Hope that helps!


this.mess = abs(sin(times#))

Thanks bax. That partly helps. Sometimes the player will run into objects that will make her stop but I want the screen to keep movin (think mario get gettin pinched by the screen). So is there a way to convert change in x to velocity? Ill on the code later
