So I am just trying to make my game character, which is a texture ( ball
), to jump up in the air and then return back down to the position that it started at when the screen is pressed. I was just wondering if someone could give me a code example or help me to do this with my current code which is below. I have basically just drawn the background and the ball texture and positioned the ball where I want it to start the jump. The ball texture is what I want to make jump straight up.
public class MyGdxGame extends ApplicationAdapter {
SpriteBatch batch;
Texture background;
Texture ball;
@Override
public void create () {
batch = new SpriteBatch();
background = new Texture("gamebackground.png");
ball = new Texture("ball2.png");
ball.setFilter(Texture.TextureFilter.Nearest, Texture.TextureFilter.Nearest);
}
@Override
public void render () {
batch.begin();
float scaleFactor = 2.0f;
batch.draw(background, 0, 0, Gdx.graphics.getWidth(), Gdx.graphics.getHeight());
batch.draw(ball, 80, 145, ball.getWidth() * scaleFactor, ball.getHeight() * scaleFactor);
batch.end();
}
@Override
public void dispose () {}
}
There are a million ways to do this.
Here's a simple (and not very flexible way). Create a Ball class that has variables for x and y position, velocity, and acceleration. Then give it an update method for applying the acceleration and velocity to the position:
public class Ball {
public static final float GRAVITY = -100; // size depends on your world scale
public static final float BOUNCE_DAMPENING = 0.6f;
public final Vector2 position = new Vector2();
public final Vector2 velocity = new Vector2();
public final Vector2 acceleration = new Vector2(0, GRAVITY);
public void update (){
float dt = Gdx.graphics.getDeltaTime();
velocity.add(acceleration.x * dt, acceleration.y * dt));
position.add(velocity.x * dt, velocity.y * dt);
if (position.y <= 0){ // hit ground, so bounce
position.y = -position.y * BOUNCE_DAMPENING;
velocity.y = -velocity.y * BOUNCE_DAMPENING;
}
}
}
This is a very rudimentary way of handling physics. It would be more sophisticated to use Box2D, but the above is fine if you're just learning.
Now, you need to create a ball instance and use it to track your ball position. Use the Ball object's position when drawing it. And you can react to taps to apply a velocity.
public class MyGdxGame extends ApplicationAdapter {
SpriteBatch batch;
Texture background;
Texture ballTexture;
Ball ball;
@Override
public void create () {
batch = new SpriteBatch();
background = new Texture("gamebackground.png");
ballTexture = new Texture("ball2.png");
ballTexture.setFilter(Texture.TextureFilter.Nearest, Texture.TextureFilter.Nearest);
ball = new Ball();
}
@Override
public void render () {
Gdx.gl.glClear(GL20.GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT); // don't forget to clear screen
if (Gdx.input.justTouched())
ball.velocity.y += 100;
ball.update();
batch.begin();
float scaleFactor = 2.0f;
batch.draw(background, 0, 0, Gdx.graphics.getWidth(), Gdx.graphics.getHeight());
batch.draw(ballTexture, ball.position.x, ball.position.y, ballTexture.getWidth() * scaleFactor, ballTexture.getHeight() * scaleFactor);
batch.end();
}
@Override
public void dispose () {
batch.dispose();
background.dispose();
ballTexture.dispose();
}
}
You also need to read up on pixel units vs. world units and how to solve the scale problem with Viewports. See https://xoppa.github.io/blog/pixels/ and https://github.com/libgdx/libgdx/wiki/Viewports
