thank you very much. i have had a hard time figuring out how to give each platform its own position, this turtorial helped with that!

[dzmitrypadrig]

I'm having a blast with this series.

[storablespore]

You are such a big help. Can you do a platformer guide for abilities? Like a dash or wall climb mechanic?

[Logikiel]

Absolutely amazing guide Chris. Keep making more!

You're a goddamn savior sir, I was going through multiple videos and most of them were either outdated or too complicated for me to understand. Since I want to copy script from others as little as possible, and rather only use code I can write myself, I'm glad I found a solution that is simple and worked perfectly!

[aaronwise]

thanks to your videos and Godot I am now slightly less scared of code

Please tell me how to connect the down and jump buttons so that he jumps?

[ВадимПостников-ъз]

thanks bro, helped the character jump off the platform

Just found your channel today....great stuff.More for Godot 4 and Aseprite ;) (maybe Tilemapping with Tiled/LDtk and import in Godot4)

[Frazer]

how do i change the direction of the one way collision

[knerf]

do you have tips for making this work from a top-down setting?

[BiskitSlippers]

How would you make the distance the platform moves dynamic? For example, what if you have different distances that you need a platform to move - how could you add this?

[Northwatch]

Anyone know how to get my Player to move with the Platform instead of falling off? Also very useful video, thanks

[pescadorCardoso]

Is it possible to add platforms and other maps elements in runtime?

[velebreaksbones]

Great video really helpful and easy to understand! Good job sir! Just one quick q: for some reason the platform animation works perfectly in the AnimationPlayer but when I'm trying to load the game the platform doesn't appeat at all. Any clue on what did I miss?

[darius]

Thank you for the tutorial. I did everything as you said but for some reason when I turn on the one way collision feature on the platform, my character goes right through it and doesn't collide with it at all. What can be the issue? Could you, please, give some advice? Thank you.

Edit: I don't know what it was but when I made a new scene it all worked well.

[notcardi]

is there any way to make one way platforms with a tilemap?

[trunkss]

I have a problem... my platform spawns at the origin and not where I placed it in the world.
