How do I get my player to jump higher when i hold?

I want to make a infinity runner, and i want to make it so if i hold the screen the player will jump higher. I tried sustain jump, but it only works when the default controls are enabled, for my game i need them off. Any ideas?

Hey RoboticPhoenix!

The Platform behavior has an setting called "jump sustain" for the exact behavior you're looking for.

Everytime you "simulate jump" it will work, even if not using the default controls. The problem will be if you associate it to an "On" type event, since these events are performed once. You must call it from a "Is" type event.

Examples:

On key "Z" pressed | Player Simulate Jump 
            or     |
On mouse clicked   |
[/code:lvswtodr]
Will not work.

[code:lvswtodr]
Key "Z" is down | Player Simulate Jump 
         or     |
Mouse is down   |
[/code:lvswtodr]
Will work.

Hope this helps. Cheers!
