Front suspension

Hi, sorry for the noob questions but I have recently bought a second hand mtb to get back into it and found that even though I could jump a few months ago I seem to now be going all over the shore, something just doesn't feel right when taking off.. I have checked my bike and noticed that the PSI in my front shocks was at 0..... I was wondering if this would cause me to feel like the bike is not hitting a straight line when taking off normal sized jumps....

what is your weight? not that it gives a good guide.
what is a better option is to see how much sag you get in normal riding position (you want about 20%) and add or take air away.

When you say sag do you mean how much it compresses when just riding on a flat??
something like that, look here
