I know I can trigger the normal jump with $Player/Body.request_jump() but I don't really know how to do the second double-jump. Anyone have any experience here?
The standard implementation of jump in the PlayerBody does not support double-jump. It was written to try and emulate physically real behavior.
You may need to hack the function to take a second "allow-if-not-on-ground" argument defaulted to false, but with the ability for you to manually call to trigger a second in-air jump.
You may wish to put in a feature-request into the Godot-XR-Tools github ticket system.
Not sure what build you're in, but for the latest and greatest of the moment, G 4.2.2 and XR Tools 4.3.3,
within the player_body.gd: request_jump() call, line 347;
## Request a jump
func request_jump(skip_jump_velocity := false):
# Skip if not on ground
if !on_ground: <--------
return
is the what stops the jumping so change the if statement into the one below
and you'll need to create a var jump_counter : int = 0
The int may help save some headaches , and the = 0 is needed.
if jump_counter < 2:
jump_counter += 1
else:
return
On line 352; this pops up and may lead to issues if in air,
if abs(ground_relative.dot(ground_vector)) > 0.01:
To reset the counter, we go into line 616, in
func _update_ground_information(delta: float):
on line 631, after the
if !ground_collision:
near_ground = false
on_ground = false
ground_vector = up_gravity
ground_angle = 0.0
ground_node = null
ground_physics = null
_previous_ground_node = null
return
statement, you can add the
jump_counter = 0
to reset everything back to normal.
sorry for the messy text but I'm still getting the coffee flowing in me
