Running down walls

[Dark Mystic]

I was wondering, if you wanted a character (lets say Sonic) to run down a wall (like SA2B City Escape end of the level or SatSR beginning), would a SOC be able to work that out? Like when you hit the end of a horizontal path he can go down vertically (though of course if you were to jump off, you would fall off by that point).

Yes,make Knuckles climbing frames walking frames.

I don't think an SOC would be able to pull that off, unfortunately.

Well...looks like I'm gonna have to find another way to do what I'm trying to do...

If the whole level consists of running down this wall it works. You just have to build the whole level so that it looks like you're falling. With wind sectors you can simulate gravity.

I made a small sketch to give an example :

Morph beat me to it. But the whole level doesn't need to be that way. You can make two seprate parts of your level. One with wind, one without. And use teleporters to go between them.

For example, pretend this is your level:

]WINDY! :P

[a] represents your level. and [c] are two segments with their own seperate thok barriers and such. See how they're seperated, and not touching?

Also, there might be a situation where you'll need to make flat (floor texture) versions of wall textures.
