I have a parameter that adjusts the depth (thickness) of each horizontal plate. This is a very forgiving parameter, and can be adjusted from almost nothing to a whooole lot (it has worked at 1' and at 75', and many points in between).
As can be seen here, it works nicely stepping from 60' down to 15':
The freak out happens when it tries to jump from 60' directly to 15':
Note that the floor_to_floor parameter in this is the same as it was in the previous screenshot... if it's not too small to read, that is...
Why would it freak out when jumping from 60' to 15' when it's perfectly fine jumping from 60' to 30' to 15'??
P.S. After further experimentation, it seems that it doesn't like making a jump of more than about 40'. It'll make the jump from 75' to 40', but not from 75' to 35'. Also, the number of red floors shown when it fails is directly proportional to the amount of change in the parameter. That is, changing from 75' to 35' causes 3 floors to fail, but a 75'-25' jump causes 9 floors to fail...
