Is there a way to limit the max height of the Physics 2D bounce?

[JitteryGamer]

At the moment, the player can sit on the mushroom and bounce higher and higher until they hit the ceiling of the game. Is there a way to prevent this?

Hi,

You could clamp the player’s velocity like this:

float maxSpeed = 2f;

void ClampVelocity()
{
    if (myRigidbody.velocity.sqrMagnitude > (maxSpeed * maxSpeed))
    {
        Vector3 velocity = myRigidbody.velocity;
        Vector3 newVelocity = velocity.normalized * maxSpeed;
        myRigidbody.velocity = newVelocity;
    }
}

Of course, you have to call the ClampVelocity method somewhere. I’m leaving this challenge for you.

Did this help?
