So I think I finally got something I'm happy to put in a video. Will need to go over everything but the plan is to start scripting tomorrow unless a big issue crops up. Chopping back to basics so I'm cutting the stuff that handles bigger collision masks and ultra high move speeds etc as they're not necessary or super relevant. I want this video clean and focused.
There's situations this won't handle but they can all be dealt with through either writing extra code to deal with them or more practically through level design. For example, you don't want to end slopes half way or allow the player to approach them from below. It also only handles slopes you can walk ON, not sloped ceilings, etc.
Ultimately the more cases you want, the more work you'll have to do and it isn't practical or helpful for me to do a 20 hour course on covering all situations. (Nor would that be good for my mental health :p)
Stay tuned!
