The Reverse Gravity mechanic allows the character to flip their gravity direction. This in combination with the Reverse Gravity Fields can make for some interesting level design!

Customization
Properties
-
-
- Flip – The input to trigger gravity flipping.
- Switchable Midair – Whether the player can switch gravity in midair.
- Velocity Retention – What fraction of the vertical velocity is retained after flipping. A higher value will feel floatier.
-
Events
-
-
- FlipRequested – Fires when the user presses the flip button
- Flipped<int> – Fires when the player flips (by using an input or gravity field) and passes a 1 or -1 depending on the direction they flipped to

Caveats/Bugs
- If any offset is given to a follow camera with the reverse gravity enabled, the offset may jump when flipping, as the offset is being flipped to respect the character’s new state. This is intentional, but a camera tweening behavior is being worked on to make smoother.
