"Zero Gravity" collisions

I posted this on another forum (to no avail) so I thought I might get better luck here on GameML (sorry I've neglected this forum so much!). There's some new announcements regarding GBS games, which you can find here

Here's the original topic:

I'm building a sidescrolling game that is a lot like a regular platformer, except there's no gravity. Instead the player has a jet pack that keeps them suspended in the air. I have very little experience with collisions in general, but all the tutorials and examples I've seen involve gravity, so I haven't been able to learn much that would apply to my game I've set up a mock-up of how the game is coded, I managed to work out flat vertical and horizontal surfaces, but ramps, curved surfaces, and stand-alone blocks elude me (which is all set up in the mock up). The main problem is that the character just stick s to everything, how can I get the collisions to be nice and smooth? Can anyone point me in the direction of an example I could work from, or maybe try out coding some of this stuff?

Here's a screenshot of the game I'm working on, titled: Endgame.


Here's the mock-up file, which is just a simplified version of the movement system in Endgame. If you're able to get the ramps and other surfaces to work... you're awesome.

And here's what I have so far for Endgame, if you're interested

Thanks to all who reply!

Real good game GBS, althouth you maqy want to find some ay of quitting the game the game properly, I had had to restart my computer.

Just a heads up, I'll be deleting all posts tommorow morning to give the site a fresh start, so you'll may need to repost this, ok?

Oh okay I should of mentioned to look at the "info" button (which has all the cheats and terms and stuff) I assigned the "Q" button to quit the game

now ya tell me!.... keep up the good work!
