I'm also curious as to how you would come about programming a character to swim underwater and, like in Mario games, hit jump to swim upwards and out of the water. n/a

Does that make sense? Visit www.voltic.com.au - you probably won't regret it! ~Gradually getting less bad at making games~

Does that make sense? Hello there Jake! To answer your question, yes it kind of doe. I could try to implement the code you described, though an example file always helps out and makes the coding easier to understand. Thanks for the help! n/a

This way if you successfully create your rising water you can continue to use the same code. EDIT: Try this (no rising water code but the jumping out of the water principle works) http://mfa.aquadasoft.com/view/1388323041-Underwater EDIT 2: This time I have implemented a crude rising water system (VERY crude might I add): http://mfa.aquadasoft.com/view/1388323333-Underwater-rising Edited by lembi2001 n/a
