Re: Diagonal Gravity

What do you mean?

Basically, if the arrows are like this:

then up will go up and down will go down.

But if is like this:
(/ is diagonal arrow going up and right)
  /|
  /|
  /|
  /|
1. Would you be able to counter the force pushing on you by moving by going downwards?

And if it is like this:

   _
   /|

2. Would you be able to jump from it, and how many diagonal lengths long would it go with no-grav? (basically asking if this is actually going to be both the strength of up+right or both weakened so the strength of the arrow is the same as the others.

Finally, look at this:
   _
   /|_
   / /|_
     / /|_
       / /|
Doesn't arrows like this seem weird without diagonal blocks?

Overall saying that this is a very new aspect (if it were to be implemented) in the game.

no, why double speed? Its just pointing diagonally.

If you had both a down and left acceleration of 1 (what you were suggesting), you'd end up with a diagonal acceleration of 1.414... so you'd end up going almost 50% faster than in normal gravity

Not that this would be hard to solve, they were just picking at a small mistake you made

Would there be slope blocks and diagonal boosts, gravity and more that come with it too?

If there were diagonal arrows, it would probably make sense (like I said in this previous post) to add diagonal boosts and diagonal gravity too, then begs the question of diagonal blocks, one-ways and more.

TL;DR
I was too lazy to make actual diagrams.

holding up would make you go up whilst holding down would make you down. Goin in gravity doesnt rotate your cobtrols.

It could also work so that if you are touching a wall or corner you simply wont jump. I could see these being useful for minis and the sort.

They meant what controls would you be allowed to press, not what controls would do what (you can't press up while in downwards gravity, would you be able to press it in diagonally down gravity?)

here my idea you would be able to press up in diagonal down but you will go a lot slower as you will b epulle down too not a speed of 1 because of 1²+1²=2 and sqrt 2= ~1.41 EDIT what i mena is ~0.7 speed oges downward while youe holding up still wins with ~0.3 would be more if speed effect ofc and or gravity effects

thanks hg for making this much better and ty for my avatar aswell
