Re: [Audyssey] MOTA Beta 22 Released
Hi, No. Analog jumping is a core part of the game. If I got rid of the analog jumping it would make jumping traps way too easy as well as give you less control over weather you want to do a hop, short jump, or a very long jump. Besides that, analog jumping is very common in mainstream games, and by adding analog jumping I'm in effect creating something on par with mainstream games. It is a standard feature that far too many VI audio game developers ignore, but I am trying to introduce to the audio games community. As far as difficulty that's different for everyone. I personally don't think analog jumping is too hard but just takes practice. Of course, I've been playing mainstream games with analog jumping for most of my life so I'm quite familiar with the concept. It might take you some time to adapt to it. The thing to keep in mind here is that its quite useful once you get the hang of it.

Re: [Audyssey] MOTA Beta 22 Released
Hi, I was trying mota beta 21 the other day, and I couldn't figure out how this analog jumping worked. For example, you said that the longer you hold down the keys the farther you jump? Well when I push down control then push down the right arrow, she jumps and lands within about half a second or less, so I don't see how I can control this. And whether I hold it for a long time or a short time, she always seems to land on the other edge of whatever I was jumping over. Hope someone can help, -Michael. -- From: Thomas Ward thomasward1...@gmail.com Sent: Tuesday, August 16, 2011 8:06 AM To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Subject: Re: [Audyssey] MOTA Beta 22 Released Hi, No. Analog jumping is a core part of the game.

Re: [Audyssey] MOTA Beta 22 Released
Michael, Keep in mind there is a maximum distance Angela can jump. She doesn't jump forever. Once she reaches the maximum distance she will land regardless of how long you hold the jump buttons or keys down. Obviously, I had to set the max distance to something reasonable which is about the length of a standard pit or trap. However, if you let go of the keys earlier than before she lands she won't jump the full distance. Hope that makes sense. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] MOTA Beta 22 Released
You won't actually hear a difference in the amount of time between jumping and landing. What I tend to do, and it seems to guarantee (or at least the closest thing to that as possible) that I land where I want to, is to press and hold the jump keys for the direction I want to jump in, only releasing them once I hear Angela land. And because of the new jump code there's no chance of overjumping once you land and possibly landing in the next trap.

Re: [Audyssey] MOTA Beta 22 Released
Hi Thomas, So there is a penalty for releasing the jump keys early. Death. What about a penalty for releasing them too late? I imagine she would be tired or injured after a too long of a jump.

Hi Phil, Sure. No problem.

Re: [Audyssey] MOTA Beta 22 Released
Hi Dark, Oh, I think you'll like beta 22. Beta 21 and beta 22 was based largely on the beta 18 stable code and of course expands and updates beta 18. So I think what we have now is very very stable and functional to play. Now, at least I can get on with the business of writing the rest of the game as well as I can safely release the first beta of MOTA 3D since it will be based on the updated/debugged G3D Engine for Windows.
