Did you try just setting an animation block for when you are still and when you are going up and down?

Also if you did do an animation block would that mess it up? I haven’t used that extension before and I honestly didn’t know it existed lol.

Well I kinda just got rid of the animations for now, I feel like arcade character animations are WAY easier and better to use than the normal animations.

If it would still help then you should do it because if you can’t sort this out it might take a little longer but it would still give you a functional game.
