This is basic. If you do it this way then you can't have slopes or curves with your terrain. I know its hitTest (true) but what about its head or side. It also places the registration point to one selected spot so if you stand just over halfway on and off the platform you will fall through it. Thats not very good.

As I said its okey for a very basic game but I'd like to see a few full levels using this.

Sorry if thats too harsh. The techniques used in this are however usful in certain situations and the jumping is coded nicely.
Oh and I didn't like the fact the code was all in one little box with small print. I had to copy it and paste it in a document just to read it which made me think that other ppl might just copy and paste your code rather then reading it and learning it themselves. If you know the code it makes it a lot easier later don't you agree.

Again its okey if its a basic side scrolling game. I might make a tutorial when I free up some time.

Just read up on my old notes to see how I figured this one out. Basically look up info about xMin, xMax and yMin,yMax. If you basically do the same thing and use multiple hitTests then it works a treat.

Sorry about before. That was basically right. It just needs a few small tweaks and some extra stuff.
