I'm using the code below to move a Ball to determined point. But, the ball are "teleporting" to there, how can i roll the ball until the point ?
void Update(){
if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0) && EventSystem.current.currentSelectedGameObject != ButtonDiminuir && EventSystem.current.currentSelectedGameObject != ButtonAumentar &&
EventSystem.current.currentSelectedGameObject != BarraForca) {
transform.position = Vector3.Lerp(transform.position, new Vector3(transform.position.x, transform.position.y, -9.0424f), 2 * Time.deltaTime);
Anim.Play("Kick_Up");
}
}
You can do it like this using Vector3.Lerp :
Vector3 startPosition;
Vector3 endPosition;
var speed = 10.0;
transform.position = Vector3.Lerp(startPosition, endPosition, speed * Time.deltaTime);
or using Vector3.MoveTowards
// The step size is equal to speed times frame time.
float step = speed * Time.deltaTime;
// Move our position a step closer to the target.
transform.position = Vector3.MoveTowards(transform.position, target.position, step);
If you want to roll the ball, use AddForce() instead transform.position.
First, add Rigidbody and Sphere Collider to your ball game object.
Then try this code:
public Vector3 targetPoint;
public float forceAmount;
...
void Update()
{
Vector3 force = ((targetPoint - transform.position).normalized * forceAmount * Time.smoothDeltaTime);
GetComponent<Rigidbody>().AddForce(force);
}
Also, if you want to ball stops immediately when arrive to target point, you can set GetComponent<Rigidbody>().velocity to 0 when targetPoint - transform.position = 0
I hope it helps you.

How to limit my ai movement to move only on the z axis. Ive already tried freezing the rotation and position on it's rigidbody but instead when i jump my ai also goes up with me on it's position and slightly rotates towards me.
private void Update()
{
StopFollowing();
Vector3 relativePos = target.position - transform.position;
Quaternion rotation = Quaternion.LookRotation(relativePos);
Quaternion current = transform.localRotation;
transform.localRotation = Quaternion.Slerp(current, rotation, Time.deltaTime
* LookSpeed);
}
// Update is called once per frame
void followPlayer()
{
Vector3 pos = Vector3.MoveTowards(transform.position, target.position, speed * Time.deltaTime);
rig.MovePosition(pos);
;
}
Freezing the rigidbody will only affect physics (using AddForce or rb.velocity)
You are using MoveTowards (basically teleporting it ignoring physics)
But you can limit it to Z-Axis manually:
void followPlayer()
{
Vector3 targetPos = target.position; // copy target Position
targetPos.x = transform.position.x; // keep x
targetPos.y = transform.position.y; // keep y
Vector3 pos = Vector3.MoveTowards(transform.position, targetPos, speed * Time.deltaTime); // now only considers z-difference
rig.MovePosition(pos);
}
You basically modify the target Position to be equal on the x and y axis, so that the MoveTowards only uses Z effectively.
I am using a Cinemachine state driver to transition between my 8 directional cameras orbiting my player. Right now my player script is set to a basic isometric character controller:
Player.cs
public float speed = 5f;
Vector3 forward;
Vector3 right;
// Start is called before the first frame update
void Start()
{
forward = Camera.main.transform.forward;
forward.y = 0;
forward = Vector3.Normalize(forward);
right = Quaternion.Euler(new Vector3(0, 90, 0)) * forward;
}
// Update is called once per frame
void Update()
{
if (Input.anyKey)
{
Move();
}
}
void Move ()
{
Vector3 direction = new Vector3(Input.GetAxis("Horizontal"), 0, Input.GetAxis("Vertical"));
Vector3 rightMovement = right * speed * Time.deltaTime * Input.GetAxis("Horizontal");
Vector3 upMovement = forward * speed * Time.deltaTime * Input.GetAxis("Vertical");
Vector3 heading = Vector3.Normalize(rightMovement + upMovement);
transform.forward += heading;
transform.position += rightMovement;
transform.position += upMovement;
}
I want the players move direction to reflect the direction of the camera. For example, using W (from WASD) will always move the player up. Could I edit the script to pick up the direction of each of my virtual cameras and add that to my player controller or is there a better way?
To solve this problem you have to change the movement of the keys according to the angle of the camera. This is done as follows with transform.TransformDirection. When the movement is synchronized with the direction of the camera, it causes the W key to press the character towards the ground, because the angle in front of the camera is inside the ground. To solve the problem, we set y to zero and then normalize the axis.
public float speed = 10f;
void Update()
{
var moveInput = new Vector3(Input.GetAxis("Horizontal"), 0f , Input.GetAxis("Vertical"));
moveInput = Camera.main.transform.TransformDirection(moveInput);
moveInput.y = 0;
moveInput = moveInput.normalized;
transform.position += moveInput * Time.deltaTime * speed;
}
I'm working on a 2D project in Unity.
The character controller is physics based, so I use rigidbody to move the player. Everything is working fine except when I try to apply a high speed movement to the character, like a dash.
This is how the code looks like.
I just check if the player is dashing, so I increase the Vector2 movement in a certain amount.
private void DashMovement() {
if (isDashing) {
movement.x *= dashFactor;
}
}
I'm also calculating the ground angle, so I set the movement vector to follow the ground inclination.
private void OnSlopeMovement() {
if (isGrounded && !isJumping) {
float moveDistance = Mathf.Abs(movement.x);
float horizontalOnSlope = Mathf.Cos(groundAngle * Mathf.Deg2Rad) * moveDistance * Mathf.Sign(movement.x);
float verticalOnSlope = Mathf.Sin(groundAngle * Mathf.Deg2Rad) * moveDistance;
if (horizontalOnSlope != 0)
movement.x = horizontalOnSlope;
if (isGrounded && verticalOnSlope != 0)
movement.y = verticalOnSlope;
}
SetMaxFallVelocity();
}
So I set the rigidbody velocity for making it move.
private void Move() {
movement.x *= Time.fixedDeltaTime;
if(isGrounded && !isJumping) movement.y *= Time.fixedDeltaTime;
Vector3 targetVelocity = new Vector2(movement.x, movement.y);
PlayerController.rb2d.velocity = Vector3.SmoothDamp(PlayerController.rb2d.velocity, targetVelocity, ref velocity, movementSmoothing);
}
The problem appears when I apply a speed high enough. I understand this issue is because of physics.
I think the ray that checks the ground and is used to calculate the groundAngle doesn't work fast enough to keep track of that movement, so I can not keep the player fixed on the ground.
I would like to find a solution without making the player kinematic, or stopping the dash on slopes.
This is how it looks ingame.
And this is how the rigidbody movement remain right over the ground, following the slopes angle.
EDIT:
This is how I get the ground angle:
private void GroundAngle() {
Vector2 rayOrigin = feetCollider.bounds.center;
rayOrigin.y += 0.1f;
Vector2 rayDirection = (Input.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal") == 0) ? Vector2.right : new Vector2(Input.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal"), 0);
int groundCollisions = Physics2D.RaycastNonAlloc(rayOrigin, Vector2.down, groundResults, Mathf.Infinity, groundMask);
if (groundCollisions > 0) {
groundAngle = Vector2.Angle(groundResults[0].normal, rayDirection) - 90f;
//Debug.DrawRay(rayOrigin, Vector2.down, Color.green);
if (groundAngle > 0 && !isDashing) {
rayOrigin.x += Input.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal") * .125f;
Physics2D.RaycastNonAlloc(rayOrigin, Vector2.down, groundResults, Mathf.Infinity, groundMask);
groundAngle = Vector2.Angle(groundResults[0].normal, rayDirection) - 90f;
//Debug.DrawRay(rayOrigin, Vector2.down, Color.blue);
}
}
}
Thanks to #Ruzhim for the help. I just post a first "solution" for the problem.
According to Ruzhim advises, I've used him code this way.
private void SetPositionAfterTick() {
if (isDashMovement) {
Vector2 currentPosition = new Vector2(transform.position.x, transform.position.y);
currentPosition.y = feetCollider.bounds.min.y;
Vector2 feetPosAfterTick = currentPosition + PlayerController.rb2d.velocity * Time.deltaTime;
float maxFloorCheckDist = .1f;
RaycastHit2D groundCheckAfterTick = Physics2D.Raycast(feetPosAfterTick + Vector2.up * maxFloorCheckDist, Vector2.down, maxFloorCheckDist * 5f);
if (groundCheckAfterTick) {
Vector2 wantedFeetPosAfterTick = groundCheckAfterTick.point;
if (wantedFeetPosAfterTick != feetPosAfterTick) {
//PlayerController.rb2d.transform.position = (wantedFeetPosAfterTick + new Vector2(0f, feetCollider.bounds.min.y - PlayerController.rb2d.position.y));
PlayerController.rb2d.velocity = Vector2.zero;
}
}
}
}
This is how it looks like.
This is good enough to continue polishing that mechanic. I still need to set the position in some way. The rigidbody's position calculation is not working as it
is raised right now, as the condition (wantedFeetPosAfterTick != feetPosAfterTick) is always true, so the character goes throw the floor and fall.
As you can see, I also need to control the down slopes movement, as it uses the slopes movement sometimes, and dash straight forward others.
This is how asker Rubzero implemented the below code to work for them:
private void SetPositionAfterTick() {
if (isDashMovement) {
Vector2 currentPosition = new Vector2(transform.position.x, transform.position.y);
currentPosition.y = feetCollider.bounds.min.y;
Vector2 feetPosAfterTick = currentPosition + PlayerController.rb2d.velocity * Time.deltaTime;
float maxFloorCheckDist = .1f;
RaycastHit2D groundCheckAfterTick = Physics2D.Raycast(feetPosAfterTick + Vector2.up * maxFloorCheckDist,
Vector2.down, maxFloorCheckDist * 5f);
if (groundCheckAfterTick) {
Vector2 wantedFeetPosAfterTick = groundCheckAfterTick.point;
if (wantedFeetPosAfterTick != feetPosAfterTick) {
//PlayerController.rb2d.transform.position = (wantedFeetPosAfterTick + new Vector2(0f, feetCollider.bounds.min.y -
PlayerController.rb2d.position.y));
PlayerController.rb2d.velocity = Vector2.zero;
}
}
}
}
This is how it looks like.

I agree with AresCaelum; using physics to do slope movement is pretty much the opposite of what you want to be doing if you don't want to preserve momentum when you're done going up/down the slope. Specifically, your problem is here:
float moveDistance = Mathf.Abs(movement.x);
float horizontalOnSlope = Mathf.Cos(groundAngle * Mathf.Deg2Rad) * moveDistance * Mathf.Sign(movement.x);
float verticalOnSlope = Mathf.Sin(groundAngle * Mathf.Deg2Rad) * moveDistance;
This is a problem because the more the player moves horizontally in a frame, the more they will move vertically based on the slope of the ramp they are on. However, this assumption doesn't hold if they should only be traveling up the ramp during only part of the movement during the frame. So, you need a way to handle that situation.
One solution is to use a raycast from where the player would be then if it's above the floor, alter the vertical velocity so that it would place them at that floor's position instead.
First, determine if slope movement has occurred in a physics frame...
private bool slopeMovementOccurred = false;
void FixedUpdate() {
slopeMovementOccurred = false;
// ...
}
private void OnSlopeMovement() {
if (isGrounded && !isJumping) {
slopeMovementOccurred = true;
// ...
}
SetMaxFallVelocity();
}
... and if it has, determine where the player is going to be after the physics update. Then do a physics2d raycast from above that position (by some amount) downward (double the previous amount) to find where the player's position should be, and then change the rb2d.velocity such that it will place the player exactly at the height they should be at.
Assuming you can calculate some kind of Vector2 feetOffset that has the local position of the player's feet:
void FixedUpdate() {
// ...
StickToSlopeLanding();
}
void StickToSlopeLanding() {
if (slopeMovementOccurred) {
Vector2 curVelocity = PlayerController.rb2d.velocity;
Vector2 feetPosAfterTick = PlayerController.transform.position
+ PlayerController.feetOffset
+ curVelocity * Time.deltaTime;
float maxFloorCheckDist = 1.0f;
// determine where the player should "land" after this frame
RaycastHit2D groundCheckAfterTick = Physics2D.Raycast(
feetPosAfterTick + Vector2.up * maxFloorCheckDist,
-Vector2.up, maxFloorCheckDist * 2f);
if (groundCheckAfterTick.collider != null) {
Vector2 wantedFeetPosAfterTick = groundCheckAfterTick.point;
// if basic physics won't take them to landing position
if (wantedFeetPosAfterTick != feetPosAfterTick) {
Vector2 wantedVelocity = curVelocity
+ Vector2.up
* ((wantedFeetPosAfterTick.y - feetPosAfterTick.y)
/ Time.deltaTime);
// adjust velocity so that physics will take them to landing position
PlayerController.rb2d.velocity = wantedVelocity;
// optionally, set a flag so that next frame
// it knows the player should be grounded
}
}
}
}
Hopefully this gets you towards a solution that will work.
Note: you may need to also move the rigidbody so that it doesn't try to clip through the corner at the top of the ramp, and you can determine where to put the rigidbody using another raycast, setting the velocity from that point to be horizontal:
void StickToSlopeLanding() {
if (slopeMovementOccurred) {
Vector2 curVelocity = PlayerController.rb2d.velocity;
Vector2 feetPosAfterTick = PlayerController.transform.position
+ PlayerController.feetOffset
+ curVelocity * Time.deltaTime;
float maxFloorCheckDist = 1.0f;
// determine where the player should "land" after this frame
RaycastHit2D groundCheckAfterTick = Physics2D.Raycast(
feetPosAfterTick + Vector2.up * maxFloorCheckDist,
-Vector2.up, maxFloorCheckDist * 2f);
if (groundCheckAfterTick.collider != null) {
Vector2 wantedFeetPosAfterTick = groundCheckAfterTick.point;
// if basic physics won't take them to landing position
if (wantedFeetPosAfterTick != feetPosAfterTick) {
// look for corner of ramp+landing.
// Offsets ensure we don't raycast from inside/above it
float floorCheckOffsetHeight = 0.01f;
float floorCheckOffsetWidth = 0.5f;
RaycastHit2D rampCornerCheck = Physics2D.Raycast(
wantedFeetPosAfterTick
- floorCheckOffsetHeight * Vector2.up
- floorCheckOffsetWidth * Mathf.Sign(movement.x) * Vector2.right,
Mathf.Sign(movement.x) * Vector2.right);
if (rampCornerCheck.collider != null) {
// put feet at x=corner position
Vector2 cornerPos = Vector2(rampCornerCheck.point.x,
wantedFeetPosAfterTick.y);
PlayerController.rb2d.position = cornerPos
- PlayerController.feetOffset;
// adjust velocity so that physics will take them from corner
// to landing position
Vector2 wantedVelocity = (wantedFeetPosAfterTick - cornerPos)
/ Time.deltaTime;
PlayerController.rb2d.velocity = wantedVelocity;
// optionally, set a flag so that next frame
// it knows the player should be grounded
}
}
}
}
}
Guys I am making an endless runner game which will be controlled with body position.
I'm trying to move character left or right (x-axis) with my body position by using Kinect sensor. The character is free to move forward (z-axis) with Time.deltaTime. The character has CharacterController and script attached. The code is below for movement:
CharacterController controller;
KinectManager kinectManager;
float speed = 5.0f
Vector3 moveDir;
void Update()
{
moveDir = Vector3.zero;
moveDir.z = speed;
moveDir.x = kinectManager.instance.BodyPosition * speed;
//controller.Move(moveDir * Time.deltaTime);
controller.Move(new Vector3 (moveDir.x, 0, moveDir.z * Time.deltaTime));
}
This statement controller.Move(moveDir * Time.deltaTime); keeps moving character to the left or right because x position is being incremented with Time.deltaTime so I wanted to restrict that and I changed that to controller.Move(new Vector3 (moveDir.x, 0, moveDir.z * Time.deltaTime));.
Now whats happening is the character is stuck at the same position. I can move left or right with body position but cannot move forward. What am I missing here?
Please help.
Indentifying issues
First try to watch you axis carefully that where is your gameobject y axis because you are assigning 0 value to it . The below code will help you find the issue and resolve it .
Solution
void Update()
{
if (controller.isGrounded)
{
// We are grounded, so recalculate
// move direction directly from axes
moveDirection = new Vector3(Input.GetAxis("Horizontal"), 0.0f, Input.GetAxis("Vertical"));
moveDirection = transform.TransformDirection(moveDirection);
moveDirection = moveDirection * speed;
if (Input.GetButton("Jump"))
{
moveDirection.y = jumpSpeed;
}
}
// Apply gravity
moveDirection.y = moveDirection.y - (gravity * Time.deltaTime);
// Move the controller
controller.Move(moveDirection * Time.deltaTime);
}
I have colliders where i can turn to the sides and i want camera to rotate as a player turn to the side. I'm using Mathf.LerpAngle for that, but when I press the key for turn to side, camera is rotating in loop. How can I make rotation stop?
The problem is that everytime I turn player should go -90 degrees to the left +90 to the right and there will be more turns so i can't use functions for setting rotation.
I was already trying to make it stop by that if statement with (lAngle > 90f)
float lAngle = Mathf.LerpAngle(minAngle, lMaxAngle, Time.deltaTime);
float rAngle = Mathf.LerpAngle(minAngle, rMaxAngle, Time.deltaTime);
Quaternion leftRotation = Quaternion.Euler(new Vector3 (0, lAngle, 0));
Quaternion rightRotation = Quaternion.Euler(new Vector3 (0, rAngle, 0));
transform.position = player.transform.position + offSet;
transform.LookAt (player.transform);
if (Input.GetKeyDown (KeyCode.LeftArrow) && GameObject.Find("Player").GetComponent<PlayerMovement>().turn) {
turnLeft = true;
} else if (Input.GetKeyDown (KeyCode.RightArrow) && GameObject.Find("Player").GetComponent<PlayerMovement>().turn) {
turnRight = true;
}
if(turnLeft) {
offSet = leftRotation * offSet;
transform.position = player.transform.position + offSet;
transform.LookAt (player.transform);
if (lAngle > 90f)
turnLeft = false;
}
if(turnRight) {
offSet = rightRotation * offSet;
transform.position = player.transform.position + offSet;
transform.LookAt (player.transform);
if (rAngle < -90f)
turnRight = false;
}
An alternative would be to use Quaternion.RotateTowards, as this allows rotations to negative values without the GameObject infinitely rotating (as it can't approach a negative value). Below you can see I'm storing the initial value of the GameObject's rotation, as a Vector3, before modifying this value whenever A or D keys are pressed. The rotation of the transform is then set to the result of Quaternion.RotateTowards.
public class FixedRotate : MonoBehaviour
{
[SerializeField]
private float m_rotationAngle;
[SerializeField]
private float m_rotationSpeed;
private Vector3 m_targetRotation;
public void Start()
{
m_targetRotation = transform.eulerAngles;
}
public void Update()
{
//Left
if(Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.A))
m_targetRotation.y -= m_rotationAngle;
//Right
if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.D))
m_targetRotation.y += m_rotationAngle;
transform.rotation = Quaternion.RotateTowards(transform.rotation, Quaternion.Euler(m_targetRotation), m_rotationSpeed);
}
}
The unfortunate thing about this approach is that you can't specify the amount of time a rotation takes, only the incremental value of which the object will rotate by. An alternative approach would be to use Mathf.Clamp to add Time.deltaTime / rotationTime to the existing y rotation of the GameObject and stop once it's reached +/- 90. Hope this helps.
