| Apr 3, 2011 at 4:50 | comment | added | Tesserex | @Blecki - That may or may not work for me - my system is customizable, so it would be a pretty generic change. Anyway, I'm still interested if anyone knows the "correct" game loop ordering. | |
| Apr 3, 2011 at 4:48 | comment | added | Blecki | The way I solved the problem of 'falling after a platform' was to not transition into the falling-state until the player has been out of contact with the floor for at least two frames. The player falls; but the animations don't change so the player doesn't notice. This also handles walking down slopes pretty well. | |

(if they move together like one entity, why not program them to be one entity or at least bind them in some fashion?) | |
