How do I fix wall sticking?

So I'm developing a platformer-style game and I implemented wall jumping. The issue is, you don't stick to the walls.

I solved this, I changed the player's max fall speed when next to a right or left wall, and change it back when away from the wall.

The issue is, only one direction, either left or right, works.

But if I disable the working one, the other now suddenly works.

Only one can work at a time and this is very frustrating.

I have been struggling with this for months and always just putting it away to do later, but I've finally had enough of not finding an answer online.

All the thanks.

Can you send a .c3p of your problem?

Smooth and consistent wall jumping with the platform behaviour requires quite a bit of tweaking to get right. I use timers which set states which control behaviours but obviously each game will require different implementations. Post your project file so we can help narrow it down for you.

Here are some events from one implementation I did. It might not be suitable for your game but hopefully will help. I can't easily provide a .c3p for this project sorry.

The file as requested. TestLevel2 is the actual testing level, TestLevel1 has been abandoned so don't worry about it.

The game itself is very very VERY early in development and I'm still working on finishing most of the mechanics.

You have a lot of conflicting events, or events that should be nested as sub events.

One example is Event #32 - If player has wall to right - set max fall speed to 0

You then have Event #36 - On W pressed If player has wall to right - Set max fall speed to 150.

That is a conflict, the engine is being told to do two different things for the same condition.

Have a read of these pages in the manual: construct.net/en/make-games/manuals/construct-3/project-primitives/events

construct.net/en/make-games/manuals/construct-3/project-primitives/events/sub-events

and then have a look at the structure of the events in my example above.

That should give you what you need with some trial and error to get the structure right.
