[Open Assets] Classic-Based Physics Changes 1.2 / ++ 1.4

Could air drag and faster acceleration in the air be incorporated? Aside from that, it's almost perfect.

Probably a hot take but I'm not really a fan of the vanilla game physics. Might just be because I'm a heathen that plays on controller but the changes made by this mod make the game feel so much nicer to control especially when you combine it with other movement mods like Air Acceleration, a momentum mod, ect. Overall, great mod I much more enjoy the tighter feeling physics this mod introduces.

I don't know if you'll still touch this, but I do have to say, spectacular work! I pretty much use this mod 99% of the time I play the game, but there are still issues with it.

A few paths in some of the levels are broken from vanilla, namely in ACZ. In Act 2 for Sonic, there's a cave section after a half pipe and springs are supposed to launch you through the cave and Sonic will instead bonk his head on one of the wooden beams which isn't supposed to happen. Int the same act towards the end in the huge "underground" cliffside area, A red spring is supposed to allow Sonic to take a shortcut by landing on one of the large rock structures that leads to a secret, but it's impossible to reach.
Another thing is Amy's shortcut using the tornado in Act 1 is uncrossable.

I wish I didn't have these nitpicks, but things kept breaking as I used the mod. It's unfortunate cause the mod is REALLY good and I'm going to keep on using it.

Yeah, the springs are boosted to account for the increased gravity but its hard to make the springs work for all of the level design in SRB2, the solution also seems pretty hacky right now. In DSZ2 an underwater red spring acts differently based on if you walk into it or if you land on top of it and i just cant figure out why.
I think im stuck atm

You say their jump heights have been increased to match the increased gravity, but it doesn't feel like that... it feels like the gravity has been increased and the jump heights were not tweaked at all.

TL;DR: Having more gravity is GREAT, but you need to add more height to the jump.

Could you show me a gif or video of what you’re experiencing? Thank you.

I like these physics and I feel srb2 needs it. Running through feels so much more fluid, minus some modded levels not being possible.

an absolutely wonderful mod!! i've always found the max running speed and acceleration to be way higher than it should be, the game feels *SO* much better to play with this!!

Really nice physics change mod. Probably my favorite way to play this game now and swapping off of it to vanilla really make you feel how floaty everything is. Great work!

I actually like the feel of this but can you add better air control, After jumping you have little control to correct your position cause you fall so fast.

Your prayers have already been answered, but the build is in-dev for fine tuning. It will be a seperate build because it controls differently than just the higher gravity and jump heights.
