Thanks for the support, I'm trying to get my hed around it all my self... sometimes i get lucky sometimes i can't get anything right... :(

Correct... I just want the character to jump to the closest option. In example... ---Example 1---- (start) x x x o o x o o (max jump length*) *8 tiles *x = can't pass *o = passable ground. (*each represent a tile) If the Example 1 The player is jumping to the right, because the 4th tile is available to land on then it should land there instead of the 8th tile because that's the max jump length. The only time a player should jump 8 tiles is when a situation like this comes up as shown in Example 2. ---Example 2---- (start) x x x x x x x o (finish) If also possible can it be defined within that code that the minimum jump length is 2 tiles? So that the character isn't jumping one tile at a time?

No, sorry. I'll try and explain it like this... Say if a player needs to jump 4 Tiles and the Jump_Distance = 8 Instead of jumping all 8 Tiles He should only Jump 4 because that's where the closest land place is.

It was due to an anti-lag script... When the event walked outside the Buffer Area it would stop to save resources

Not sure why you posted that

Hello all, Below is a code for a jumping script. It works great however I just want to be able to change one little thing... If a player can Jump the distance (In my example 6 tiles) but can do it 4 or 3 because that's where the closes landing point is, then I'd like my character to be able to do that, instead of jumping the full 6 squares. I've looked though a number of Jumping Scripts and did a pretty wide google search and found nothing...

I'm having an annoying issue that I am sure comes with a simple answer. Why is it that when I set an event to walk to somewhere off screen it will wait until i can see it before it goes further? I'm trying to set up a race with an event but as soon as the event goes off screen it stops moving... Please Help!
