Non-physics based movement

[StOneDOes]

If I disable physics on my player controller (by GetEntity()->SetPhysicsMode( PHYSICS_DISABLED ) ), is there a way that I can now use SetPosition() on it to move it around for something like climbing a ladder? Because the SetPosition() function seems to have no effecf after disabling physics.

Should this work? I'm pretty sure I'm not doing anything else that is grounding the player controller, given that jumping works just fine when the physics are enabled.

Try to do GetEntity()->Sync() after using SetPosition()

Unfortunately this did not help. Do you think there could be a bug in this?

idk, it used to work:

	player:SetPhysicsMode(PHYSICS_DISABLED)
            player:SetPosition(newPosition)
            player:Sync()
            player:SetPhysicsMode(PHYSICS_PLAYER)

I gave that a go as well, but still couldn't get it working. I'll keep at it and see if I can figure something out. Might report it as a bug.

Ok this is just my own mistake. Simply disabling physics on the entity is all that needs to be done. My camera is not being correctly updated here.

Thanks for your help.
