FPS count and Jump ability

[grkwasniewski]

One thing bothers me, and I didn't find an answer to that. If I have an FPS count around 60, Jump Ability works as it should. But when the FPS jumps to around 200 / 300, the Player can move very fast, but the Jump is nonexistent. It's very short. Why is this thing tied to FPS value?

Does this occur with the motor's update location set to "Update" or "Fixed Update". If it is set to "Update", it is recommended to limit the framerate. https://opsive.com/support/documentation/ultimate-character-controller/character/

Yes, you are right. When I set Update Location to "Fixed update," it works ok. And I can see a note about limiting FPS in the editor. My bad. Thank you.

Can you tell in short why this works this way?
