    I was doing my own FPS controller without any guidance and everything was alright but some weird camera jitter so I decided to check how everyone was tackling the camera. I never thought of having it outside the hierarchy of the player. Now I have 0 problems amazing idea!

    for anyone struggling with the player sticking to walls; Make a Physic Material with little to no dynamic friction (I used a value of 0.1 with Friction Combine at Minimum) and assign it to the player's Collider. You can experiment with different friction values to find what works best for your game

      @@mlgjman1837 how do you mean? If you set the Friction Combine to minimum it will use the smaller value of the 2 colliding objects, so it should be enough to just apply it to the player directly.
      Unless you are talking about some other problem.

    Your methods are so simple! I've ran into multiple problems with syncing the camera with an object that has a character controller before. Similarly, I had to do mental gymnastics just to figure out how to move the player based on the camera's perspective. Having an object whose only function is to keep track of orientation saves a lot of mental work and is definitely a game changer. I need to think like that more! Glad to have found this tutorial. Great stuff man!

    for those of you who are on Unity 6 and having problems with "rb.drag", it is depreciated and replaced with "rb.linearDamping". it works the exact same though, no extra lines or anything. "rb.velocity" was also replaced by "rb.linearVelocity".

    if yall can't jump you can put "readyToJump = true;" in Start() or just when you create the variable initialise it to true ("bool readyToJump = true;").
    if ur jumps are huge and fall slowly, i found that increasing the rigidbody's mass in Unity helped, I liked 1.6 but tweak it for yourself. also tweak the jumpForce, i'm at 10.

    This tutorial was great but one small problem. I couldn't get the capsule to jump until I compared my script side by side with your script and noticed that in the video you do not say to add the following line to Start()
    readyToJump = true;
    You might consider updating your description so people know. I spent awhile trying to figure it out comparing everything I did from the video before I gave up and looked at your script.
    edit: this was a year ago, still getting thanks to this day. never expected to get this much support, thank you all for the 1k likes. means alot. good luck on your movement systems everyone!

    if you have a problem with the ground check then just add an empty game object at the bottom of the player then write this:
    grounded = Physics.CheckSphere(groundCheck.position, groundDistance, whatIsGround);
    with these as variables:
    public Transform groundCheck;
    public float groundDistance = 0.4f;
    public LayerMask whatIsGround;
    bool grounded;
    i got this from brackey's fps tutorial btw and it seems to work nicely with this script.

    If you are still having trouble with "penguin sliding" after adding drag double check the position of your capsule in your player holder, if like me you moved the capsule at some point to align things it moves the starting point of the raycast with it, so make sure your capsule has 0,0,0 for position.
    For me my capsule was 0,2,0 and as such my raycast was starting lower then my player. I found this out by starting the game, then hitting esc to free my mouse then change to scene view, I then selected my player holder and unchecked "use gravity" to allow me to drag my player holder up while looking at 'Drag' in the Rigidbody and after my player was hovering ~1 unit in the air my Drag jumped from 0 to 5 which is what my GroundDrag was set to at the time

    Second, I couldnt jump.
    Tried to check if i was grounded and played with the variables for awhile, but I had some issues finding out if i was grounded and the consol log was really confusing so i used this code in the Update() section :
    Debug.Log(grounded);
    if (Input.GetKey(jumpKey))
    Debug.Log(jumpKey);
    it helped me confirm real time if i was grounded or not so i could alter the varibles until i was actually grounded, and if the game was registering me pressing space bar.
    However i was unable to jump because I initially did not have "readyToJump" set to true.
    I fixed this adding this code to Start() section
    ResetJump();

      you need to extend your raycast length check. if your ground is -0.7 below your character then it wont pass. playerHeight * 0.5f means it is checking a ray length of 0.7 which may not include the -0.7 you are at. Try increasing it by changin it playerHeight * 0.5f + 0.3f for a total of 0.8f length to intersect the floor

    If anyone is having trouble with having really floaty jumps where you fall really slowly, here's how to fix it:
    Go to Edit -> Project settings -> Physics -> Gravity Y and change this Y value to something even smaller (for me -29.43 works pretty well, which is 3*(-9.81) so three times the normal gravity)

    Ik this vid is older but following this tutorial i found 1 major flaw and was wondering if anyone had a fix for it, when you hold jump, the raycast at your feet extends slightly below the collider, so you jump before you even touch the ground, this also affects crouching on slopes if you jump while crouched on a slope you will float in the air, i tried reducing the raycast distance for ground detection but that made it impossible to use slopes cause they were too far away, considering best solution is to have a sphere below player that is not only slightly lower to the ground but also slightly larger than the width of the player collider so it could work on slopes

      might be a bit,late but in the method Update we check if whe are grounded just decreas 0.3f to like 0.1f this wil remove your problem
      you could also make a new float for example float groundDistance give it a value of 0.1f like this
      float groundDistance = 0.1f;
      in Update instead of doing 0.5f + 0.3f we are gonna do 0.5f + groundDistance
      this way you could easily assign a value in the unity inspector. i hope this helped

    HElLo Davers, If you want to make the jump a bit snappy like many oher games where it takes less time to land than to reach max height you can Add this line of code in the else if part of your MovePlayer function davers.
    The line of code is:-
    rb.AddForce(Vector3.down * landingGravityMultiplier);
    just add a public variable landing Gravity multiplier and play with it I like keeping it at 5.
    The code should now look like:-
    private void MovePlayer()
    {
    moveDirection = orientation.forward * verticalInput + orientation.right * horizontalInput;
    if (grounded)
    {
    rb.AddForce(moveDirection.normalized * moveSpeed * 10f, ForceMode.Force);
    }
    else if(!grounded)
    {
    rb.AddForce(moveDirection.normalized * moveSpeed * 10f * airMultiplier, ForceMode.Force);
    rb.AddForce(Vector3.down * landingGravityMultiplier);
    }
    }

    I fixed that with putting resetJump() in Start()
    After that i realised i could keep jumping higher and higher if i held Space
    It has to do with this code : grounded = Physics.Raycast(transform.position, Vector3.down, playerHeight * 0.5f + 0.2f, whatIsGround);
    Change the "playerHeight * xf" depending on your playerHeight both the variable and the playerObject

    It's probably something I did wrong, but I had issues with the groundcheck. Saw some fixes in the comments but didn't want to implement those. For other people having the same issue; make sure the raycast is being casted from roughly the middle of the character.
    For me, for some reason it was being casted form the bottom, which created some issues apparently. Probably something wrong with the playerheight * 0.5f + 0.2f. Still figuring out what though.
    I realized this by using the Debug.DrawRay method which is a really useful tool for debugging. I ended up adding 1.0f to the y coordinate of the origin variable from the Raycast method.
    I also had to set readytojump to true in Start() method.
    Thanks so much for this video!

    • @ljunderground
      @ljunderground 2 роки тому +2

      Thanks this was really helpful and a cool debug tool I will use in the future. I didn't add the 1.0f. Instead by seeing where the Raycast was being drawn from I could tell that both my PlayerObject and Orientation child Player objects had the wrong Y value. This was because I had a cube floor that set the Y value higher. So I reset the Y values to 0 and lowered the floor and boom working. Basically, the raycast was being drawn from the location of my Orientation object inside the Player.

    Why I am writing this? I encountered some problems that I would be glad you would help to resolve.
    1. Problem is, whenever I jump I fall very slowly. I tried everything, from writing some myself made code to searching internet.
    2. Problem is, when I fall down and hit the ground, the player (don’t know how to explain this but) bugs in for microsecond and then it goes on the ground as it should. It doesn’t bug all the way in, just to y = 0.5 (transform of my player is y = 1) and as the camera is following the position of player then it makes like a weird screen tear when where you hit the ground the view goes down for a sec and then normal.
    I would be very happy if someone who has enough knowledge and is willing to help me will actually help me.

      Maybe a bit late - but for anyone else having this problem: create a physics material and reduce it's friction to zero. Then, apply that material to your player (The capsule. You need to drag it into the "Material" slot in the capsule collider). You can add that mateiral to the ground and any other objects in your scene too. This has the added benefit of having your character no longer getting stuck to walls, and it will stop your player from losing momentum after a jump.

    This tutorial is amazing! it works really well except for one thing for me at least I keep on getting thrown into the air when I Jump. At first I used mostly my script in my game and still had the same problem so I just copied over yours to see if it had anything to do with the code and the same thing happens. gravity is set to -30. One more thing my character whenever I jump and move slightly it will keep on jumping to the direction I went in. Also the jumping seems to be randomized for some reason. Sorry for the long comment just really confused on why this is happening.

      I got the movement to work, but I don’t move in the direction I’m facing, I move where the camera is pointing in scene (even if I’m facing backwards and I hit w I’ll go backwards)?

    Hi, this tutorial helped me really much, but i have one problem: when i jump the fall is slowed. I copied your code from the link in the description and check multiple times if the presets of the movements were equal to your's, but nothing changed. Why? (P.S.: sorry for my bad english but i'm italian)
