need help with magnet pulling

[hyperhopper]

when i run, jump froward, pk fire backwards, and down b, i get pushed a little, but if i do the same thing, but instead of pk firing backwards, do it in the direction im running, the downb doesnt do anything....


also, why does the magnet pull me farther when i did a wavebounced pk fire rather than a regular pk fire...

"hyperventilates"

PK-fire produces an effect known as recoil. This gives Lucas an effective airspeed that temporarily is much higher than his normal maximum. Because Psi-magnet conserves momentum during its warm-up, you have a massive boost, known as a "Magnet pull". Using PsiM normally and you don't have the momentum to power a magnet pull.


the video I'm making is about this sort of thing.

I think that's supposed to happen. It only works if you DI in the opposite direction, but you have to start with a little foward or backward momentum.

^^ half-wrong.


I just want everyone to know: whenever a thread like this is made, I drown a sack of kittens. Yeah, its on your conscience now

This should ALSO be in the Q&A thread. Ugh... this is your second time today... just visit it okay???

but why does wavebounced pkfire give psim more power than regular pkfire


MUA HA HA HA HA! MUA HA HA HA HA

I LOVE ALL ANIMALS, EXCEPT I HATE CATS!!!! NOW THERE ARE LESS OF THOSE HORRID CREATURES!

wavebounced pk fires give 2 recoil effects in the same direction, where pk fire usually has 2 recoil effects in opposite directions as far as I can tell.

Also, Q&A thread please. I promise we answer questions there.

ok i will, i just had some bad experiences with some other Q+A threads in another board

 

[Levitas]

awesome! I promise we're nice here.

PK-fire ONLY has backwards recoil.

wavebounced fire takes the normal forward momentum and the recoil of a turnaround PKF and inverts it, so that all the motion is backwards, because of the b-reversal.

Levitas probably gets that, for those who don't:

You move forward: Forward momentum. +
You pkf backwards (turnaround pkf): backwards recoil backwards: recoil momentum forwards =

Large forward boost, > b-reverse: backwards (recoil and normal forward motion) =

Wavebounce PKF, a large boost backwards.

OH I GET IT NOW..

duh how did i not get that before?"
