pathning checking doesnt always work propley

[emil23]

Hey with help of some people i made a jump spell, it shouldnt allow u to jump into blocked area, or aswell it shouldnt allow u to jump over things that have pathning like rock, tress, boxes etc. it seems to work fine most of time but sometimes it bugs

i have just found a bug and screenshooted it, i think guy managed to jump to where he shouldnt because pathning is really thick there, is there way to fix it in the code? i know i can make pathning bigger there but the problem is there can be more places like this and it will take long time to be aware of them all and fix it

this is how he managed to jump over blocked area, he tired hard to do this bug again, and return up there but he couldnot i think its just hard to position urself correctly.









this is the photo of pathning at this place

as i mentioned before if its possible i would like to change it globaly, by changing the code somehow, now let me post the code


Pathning checking

function IsPointWalkable takes real x, real y returns boolean
    local real X
    local real Y
    local item I = CreateItem('sehr', x, y)
    set X = GetItemX(I)
    set Y = GetItemY(I)
    call RemoveItem(I)
    return X-x <= 0.125 and Y-y <= 0.125
endfunction

ok so theres whole code (except 1 trigger that doesnt matter at jump progress because it knockbacks enemy after gim jumps)



i would like to mention 1 more issue sometimes when a lot of characters stand near rock and gimli jumps into them then he can move them behind that rock, since theres no space for him to land is it somehow possible to fix it? what i mean is

oWnMeH if u can then check out this thread, u helpped me with this ability
