Gravity increasing

I think I found a bug!

Here is what I'm trying to do:

Keyboard | S is down > Player | Set Platform Gravity to -20

System | Else              > Player | Set Platform Gravity to 1500

Here is the thing, when I hold down the "S" key it does what it expected to do. The problem happens when I let it go the "S" key and press it again before the player land on the floor.

If I press it again before the player land on the floor, the Gravity increases 20 per time pressed.

Is it a bug or I'm not using the right logic?

Have you tried..

Main Event Every Tick

Sub Event 1 S is Down - Set Platform Gravity to -20

Sub Event 2 Else - Set Platform Gravity to 1500

The same problem happened. If I press the "S" key again, the gravity keep increasing. It's not supposed to do that.

What about using the "While" event?

Sorry I'm just throwing out ideas, I don't have access to C2 at the moment so I can't try it out myself.

Please see how to report bugs, this report is missing your .capx file.

I had something like this... I resolved it by having the two different choices in their own groups, and when one is active the other is deactivated and vice versa.

I'm still waiting for the correct answer about this bug

I don't think it's really a bug - when changing the gravity angle the player's fall speed is kept the same. So if you switch from strong gravity down, when the player is falling fast, to weak gravity upwards, the player is still falling fast but upwards.

Perhaps combine it with a 'set speed' action to control the speed when changing the gravity direction.
