RoboRecall Locomotion Mod

Locomotion Mod V6 Relase

IMPORTANT CONTROL CHANGES PLEASE SEE BELOW : 

- A button opens menu
- B is Jump (hold to charge)
- Y is Slow Mo (now changed to 10 seconds)
- When in loco mode you can change between r stick turn or teleport by clicking right stick
- Left thumb stick is click to sprint, you do not need to hold you will sprint until stamina reduced
- ESC will return to Hub for end of level bug

ON ROOFTOP LEVELS YOU HAVE TO TELEPORT BETWEEN ROOFS, IF YOU FALL IT WILL CAUSE THE PLAYER TO GET STUCK

ChangeLog :

Menu system overhaul

You can now do the following in the menu

- Select Onward motion where your left hand decides direction of travel
- Head turning where you go in the direction you are looking
- Superhot mode on and off
- Teleport only puts the game back to teleporting only but leaves the 360deg fix and also the slow mo button active.
- Walk speeds, now has an extra speed

Known Issues and coming soon

- Some times you will not take damage, I have found the cause and it will be fixed in next version, SOME THINGS YOU WILL TAKE DAMAGE ON
- You cannot ride the Big robots, we should have this done by next version
- Next version will have players movement stopped when bot blocks teleporting
- Left handed option in next version

Hopefully everyone will find this new button layout better.

V5 coming soon, with little adjustments and more options. 


I haven't tried V4 yet, but the way onward handles walking/sprinting is pretty great. Press left joystick around to move, double tap the button in to run until you let go of the stick, then you walk again.


With V4 the more you press the left stick upwards the faster you go 🙂



Yeah, I think that is not necessarily the best design. Too much speed, too fast and highly variable leads to sim-sickness quickly as its more difficult for you to anticipate your rate of motion.
The toggle for the walk/sprint speed is a huge thing Onward nails in making it one of the best full motion games that has no major sim sickness problems.


Sorry i described not too good, the forward motion is 75% up and its walk speed past 75% its sprint. 


Yeah, you described it correctly. I'll have to try it out but that is exactly the kind of interaction mechanism I think leads to higher chances of sim-sickness. Its pretty hard to rapidly move the joystick in different directions at not-100%, so its pretty easy to do by accident. Movements that happen by accident in VR make it more difficult to anticipate motion which increases the chance of sim-sickness. Having an intuitive toggle makes it pretty hard to do on accident.

I would make the same arguement for variable (based on the joystick location) smooth turning vs snap turning. If you accidentally move and hold the right joystick slightly and start turning slowly and if you aren't totally aware of it you will quickly get disoriented from not anticipating that movement. 

Snap turning becomes the solution to this because the movement is done quickly and does not repeat, you have to return the joystick to center and press it again to turn it again. Very predictable and unlikely to cause disorientation.

The feedback i have been given is it works well, with that being said if people would prefer a toggle button for sprint then of course i will add it 🙂

I don't wanna be annoying, but could you please please try out Onward and attempt to recreate it's unique way of handling touchpad/touchstick movement for your mod ?

Hi sure in the next update we will make it more like the movement in Onward 🙂

You not annoying 🙂 without feedback we cannot make this into a great locomotion mod

I like this mod, very nice featureset, but I would prefer the movement style of Doom3/Arizona Sunshine, where you choose your walking direction by the direction you hold your left controller. Always walking in the direction the HMD is oriented gets me motion sick 😞

In the latest version if you click the X button the right stick turns into turn and the direction is not affected by the HMD, i am preparing a Proper document on what does what as soon as i release V5

tonsta31 you're doing a fantastic job.
Now this calls for custom Scoreboards and Achievements so we can really lenghten game's life.
Is something like that even possible?

Amazing dedication! so many updates! 😉 Advice: the movement with the stick is binded to the direction that you last teleported to. this makes the game completely unplayable when you are not facing forward, making it impossible to turn with your body. I suggest using arizona sunshine and onwards model, that is proven to work amazingly. It binds the movement to the relative position of the controller that has the stick on it. try to believe.
