<h2>floatCharacter</h2>
<HR>
<H3>Syntax:</H3>
<P>
<pre class="syntax">floatCharacter (<i>thisCharacter, distance</i>);</pre>
</P>
<H3>Purpose:</H3>
<P>
Changes how far from ground level <i>thisCharacter</i> is floating. The value <i>distance</i> is measured in pixels in the animation frame used by the character, rather than screen pixels. Positive values move a character down the screen; negative values raise a character above ground level.
</P>
<H3>Return value:</H3>
<P>
TRUE if <i>thisCharacter</i> is an object type which is currently represented on the screen as a character, otherwise FALSE (i.e. TRUE if the call to the function was a success).
</P>
