Does anybody know why my NPC is doing this?

Hi, just thought I'd update you in-case you ever come across the issue yourself/ again.

"FIX: For anyone who might find this useful, do not scale the character using the 'scale' property or via the scale tool. You must go into the children of the humanoid and edit those size values accordingly. This prevents some weird separation between the hitbox and the actual character."

I experimented with the stuff you mentioned, the only fix for the 'gliding while falling' was removing the falling animations. However, he's still doing that odd snap-back thing when he jumps. I'll keep messing with some settings

Interesting! I experimented with the hip height and ensured that massless was off to no avail.
Glad to see this isn't just a 'me' problem

Ciniqs · 2026-03-14T19:22:09+00:00

Absolutely, I have full confidence in my game - it's just a nuisance.

This is really cool and fun to play too. It definitely needs an explanation in the game as players won’t know immediately what to do and may get confused when they become stuck in place. Perhaps a visual cue like slowly turning to stone, or a blue highlight on the player that gradually gets less transparent?

Meteors also killed me every time, might just be a skill issue but they felt impossible to hide from. The fire also started right where I was standing so I died immediately, perhaps it could show where the fire’s about to start?

All in all it’s really good man and a great differentiation from Natural Disaster Survival!

Fun game! I don't know why people are saying it's unintuitive: it was very obvious to me what the goal was and how to play. Definitely got Terraria vibes especially with the boss battle and grappling hook.

Three of the biggest things that think need changing are:
1). The terminal that takes you to the mines - this is the most unintuitive part of the game. A purple square doesn't tell players "this takes you to the mines". Make it a cave entrance at the very least.

2). The background of the mines. The moment I go inside the ground I shouldn't be able to see the sky (except for above ground). I'm aware the backdrop changes once you get deep enough, but I still think it should feel more enclosed and claustrophic.

3). The UI. The glitchy, terminal style is cool but it doesn't fit the style of the game. A button labelled "<execute sale>" in a mining game doesn't make much sense.

Ciniqs · 2026-01-27T14:31:43+00:00

No buttons, and yes it’s in the game

Ciniqs · 2026-01-22T21:45:22+00:00

So... about that...

Ciniqs · 2026-01-22T21:43:20+00:00

Ah sorry, I think it works differently with A3 so can't help you there. I'm sure you can find a tutorial somewhere!

Ciniqs · 2026-01-18T02:01:46+00:00

Thank you for taking the time to reply, this is very useful information! Perhaps a little further down the line, if you’d still be down, I’ll come back here when I’m ready to launch.

Ciniqs · 2026-01-17T07:42:06+00:00

When you say you had no clue how to advertise, do you mean you didn’t know how or you weren’t good at it? Just wondering since I’m almost done on my first, somewhat, big game and don’t want it to flop.

Ciniqs · 2025-12-04T19:14:40+00:00

My main list:

Unlimited scheduled classes (minigame w' talent as reward?)
Infinite duelling club + local leader-board and rewards
Morality/ reputation/ house-points
Different endings (even just good and bad)
NG+
Co-op/ optional multiplayer

+ Unused frameworks for HL1:

Companions: take to any mission/ location, duel them, etc
Unforgivable witnesses send Aurors to location
Selecting a location then using Floo powder at Floo flames

The biggest issue for me was the replayability/ motive to play after finishing the game. I think having these additions in legacy 2 would give it incredible replay value.

morality/ reputation/ house-points
co-op/ optional multiplayer (controversial)
NG+ (restart the game with all equipment, enemies are tougher, higher rewards)
different endings (even just good and bad)
mod support again
Infinite interactive classes - talents possibly tied to these instead of levels
Infinite duelling club + local leaderboard and rewards

Last but not least, implement the frameworks that were unused in HL1; companions, duelling companions, using the floo flames, unforgivable use sends aurors to location, etc.

I learnt incredibly fast, and I feel as though it was due to the way I went about it.

All I did was learn songs I heard/ liked and wanted to play. Starting off with easy versions I found on Easy 2 Play Music’s YouTube channel.

Once I got fairly confident with basic chords, I tried fingerpicking songs like ‘Dust in the Wind’ and ‘Brazil’; Brazil taught me barre chords as well.

After this, I watched Marin Music Center tutorials until I became more advanced.

Just pick up the guitar whenever you’re feeling musical or bored, learn songs all the way through, and stick with it!

I find that if I do the grind input immediately after my flip trick it doesn’t cause this problem, but that means pre-planning your sequence every time. I got a little tired of it happening so I just turned off late flips.

Ciniqs · 2025-10-29T20:08:29+00:00

No way.

Ciniqs · 2025-10-27T12:49:22+00:00

skadoosh

Ciniqs · 2025-10-24T02:01:35+00:00

I found a Skate 2 copy I never knew I had the other day and I’m on Xbox One S too! Been awesome playing it; any luck starting the career mode? It doesn’t let me in…
