  • h
    just for my sanity does 
    charBody.position.x
    do anything different?
  • i
    ok lemme try
  • i
    charBody.position
    doesn't exist
  • h
    okay so 
    char
    is a 
    FlxObject
    and 
    charBody
    is the body of that object? does 
    char.x
    or 
    char.velocity.x
    do anything?
  • i
    lemme check
  • i
    char.x
    doesn't do anything, tried it earlier
  • i
    when I tried writing anything to 
    char.velocity.x
    nothing happened earlier but I'll try it anyway
  • h
    I just mean to watch them the object is obviously changing it's position - you just need to figure out which variable it is that's being changed and where...
  • i
    yeah
  • i
    char
    is an FlxSprite (inherits stuff from FlxObject) 
    charBody
    is an 
    echo.Body
    that is added to objects
  • i
    yeah still nothing
  • h
    right 
    FlxSprite
    has it's own x and y values does the Body have like an 'offset' or something?
  • h
    position relative to the parent?
  • i
    Body has x & y too but that's just centered to the sprite
  • i
    the sprite follows it's body
  • h
    but it's x & y values dont' change?
  • i
    Body
    is basically a more complex hitbox that controls a little more stuff
  • i
    I guess not..
  • i
    wait so I figured something out
  • i
    I spawned sonic higher up
  • h
    okay so can you add just a red square or something to the state somewhere next to where sonic starts for comparison Just a basic 
    FlxSprite
    with 
    makeGraphic
  • i
    and he bounces towards the left corner when hitting the ground
  • i
    maybe it's sonic's body's elasticity?
  • i
    (bounciness)
  • h
    that would imply that he is colliding 'all the time' or something when you spawn him lower
  • i
    nothing happened
  • h
    ?
  • i
    I changed the elasticity
  • i
    nothing happened (the same bounce occurred)
  • h
    yeah I think it's something else
