Shows how much of a noob I am really, but I just discovered that SDL lets you check keystates at any time, not just when a keypress event is raised. This makes the movement code much, much<\/em> simpler. Currently attempting to let you jump, which currently conflicts horribly with the code that stops you falling through the floor… Wait a minute! I think I’ve cracked it! I just need to do a check if the vertical velocity is negative! Yay! \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n \n
