walls D:

i glitched into a wall i have the screen shoot... so far my only suggestion is a detection code that pushes you out of walls i was doing so well for a change

I'm sure the Devs handled most instances of this happening in an update. In any case, you should report any bugs you find in the latest Bug Thread. The current one is here:​

Personally I think they need to just look at the jetpack code a little closer. If I remember game-maker, they're probably modifying the gravity of the character, or the downward force that is always being applied. What they need to do is make all the collisions you ahve when not on a rope, apply when you are on a rope. So you can't go through the walls and such.

 

I'm surprised that there even is collision detection for walls, a happy surprise.

 

Game maker has a trial version, if you want, then You can have the basic idea. But as far as I know the collision detection works like this, Basically you have the object, when the object comes in contact with another object, (specified in the code) you can tell it what to do. In this case it would be push the object [player] in the oposite direction of object [wall] but it doesn't do that for ropes, that I'm aware, hence all the glitches with people climbing into walls

 

I use Game Maker fluently, I understand how it works. I meant to say "I would be surprised if they even used collision detection for walls, a happy surprise." That's because most Game Maker games tend to check if there's a block ahead of the object before moving forward, preventing any collision in the first place.

 

But then still what do you mean, Excavater9? Checking for a collision with a wall or checking with a collision with a solid block - what's the difference you'd be happy about?
