Looking to get proper player kickback when taking damage. I've got the flash to work properly. I just want the player to pop up in the air about 20-30 pixels. Thought I had a good solution until I got hit by an enemy bullet near a ceiling and it pushed me through, ignoring the collision.

Code. That highlighted bit is what is wrong. I know it's wrong. What can I replace it with?

You have got teleported into the ground which is solid

One solution could be:

You could disable player input for a short duration of time and make your character jump.

Even set jump strength/gravity to different from the standard one you use otherwise.

Borgi Having the player jump (maybe .5 of the actual jump strength) is a solution I'm considering. Thought I'd post to see if there were any other/better solutions. Thanks!

You could add physics behavior to the character. Disable it on start of layout. Then when the projectile hits, enable and apply force towards position
