ground detection not working UNITY3D

[slender ravine]

always apply gravity, even if the player is on the ground

[modest quest]

the gravity is a acceleration force

[modest quest]

if i were to always apply gravity, the player would fall faster and faster regardles of thes fact that he is standing on the ground

[slender ravine]

get the remaining velocity after moving and set the velocity to that. if you're on the ground, it will be 0.

[modest quest]

its 4 am what

[modest quest]

.

[slender ravine]

actually no, it doesn't seem to do that

i guess just use a rigidbody and add forces manually

[modest quest]

i just learned the basics of the character controller 😭

and i found a thing that was bothering me

[slender ravine]

i never seen anyone actually use it for that

[modest quest]

😭

[slender ravine]

also, i don't use unity, so maybe i'm just being dumb

[modest quest]

thanks for the help you were VEEEEEEERY helpful

[slender ravine]

sorry

[modest quest]

yea

ground detection not working UNITY3D

looked it up again and it looks like the leftover velocity is set automatically

so you should always be applying gravity

not all of the code is shown but from what i see it looks like currentGravity is remembered across updates

don't do that, just add to velocity

// The class
private Vector3 velocity = Vector3.zero;

// ...

Vector2 moveDir = new Vector2(Input.GetAxis("Horizontal"), Input.GetAxis("Vertical"));

velocity.x = moveDir.x;
velocity.z = moveDir.z;

velocity.y += -9.81f * Time.deltaTime;

characterController.move(velocity * Time.deltaTime);

actually no, you do have to set the y velocity to 0 when grounded

[modest quest]

yeah...

[slender ravine]

you need a rigidbody if you want to slide off

[modest quest]

i don't, thats the point

are there any better solutions to fix the isGrounded properity WITHOUT using rigidbody?

[slender ravine]

that is grounded, it’s just that charactercontroller won’t do sliding, only your movement from code

[modest quest]

i don't use the isGrounded anywhere else

[slender ravine]

charactercontroller only moves in one direction and stops when there is a collision. it doesn't slide.
