Hey guys,

So, I created a game in which the graphics were made entirely separate from the scripts. All of the basic scripts were created inside of a test environment. They work in that area.
Now, however, when I have applied the scripts to the larger level (which has roughly 400 objects), there are certain areas that nonsensically just don't work. I'm thinking it has something  to do with the amount objects inside of the level. If it is necessary to  split the area up into different levels, then it is fine to do so.
Although, is there something I should be doing differently as far as object properties/code?

    if (isKeyPressed('UP')) then
        offset = offset < 3 and offset + 0.2 or offset
        setBehaviorVariable(camera, 1, 'offset', {0, 7, 2 + offset})
    end
   
    if (isKeyPressed('DOWN')) then
        offset = offset > -3 and offset - 0.2 or offset
        setBehaviorVariable(camera, 1, 'offset', {0, 7, 2 + offset})
    end

this area used to work fine, but for some reason it hates the down key now. When I press the down key, Maratis freezes, returns errors of certain objects not existing (as a result of it freezing), and forces me to exit the program.
I can even comment out the up key section entirely and it simply just hates the down key

Another area:
    if (isKeyPressed('SPACE')) then
        if (coll > 1) then
            addCentralForce(player, {0, 0, 20})
            changeAnimation(playerMesh, 2)
        end
    end

this makes the program not be able to present any kind of recognition to pressing keys and freezes, but i can still hit esc.
the game throws the error for the line if(coll >1)then

Hey,

In my game I have many walls with one sided normals that are only projecting the texture on the inside of the room. When my camera collides with the walls it just goes through them and it can see through the wall from the other side since the texture isn't being projected on the outside of the wall. I have seen in most games, like minecraft, that when the third person camera collides with an object, it zooms in on the player to avoid the collision. How should I go about doing this?

Thanks in advanced

So, you'll see in the video, i am trying to make an area where you have to jump across islands floating in lava to get across, and every other island is sinking in and out so you have to time it right so it doesn't take you into the lava with it. However, i enabled physics and set the shape of the islands to triangle-mesh but the area recognized as the island stays as the first frame, even when the island has moved down. How can i make it so the shape moves with the object? I can't really explain it well but you'll see in the video, once the island moves down, the character just floats there.

P.s this is just a test environment so pay no attention to anything else around the lava. And yes, i did just drop my environment into thespecialops's tutorial project for quick tests.

If i were to use the displacement modifier in blender with a displacement map image that i put in my maps folder, Would The displacement effect work in maratis?
