Rigidbody Movement Interpolation

Can you screenshot how the scene looks? @analog hatch

Alt + Print Screen only captures the active window.

[analog hatch]

do you mean this?

[ancient thorn]

include the hierarchy

[analog hatch]

ah

that one is kinda complicated currently

but here is it

worldobject are not attached any scripts

[ancient thorn]

What type of game is it?
Do you need very precise movement?

[analog hatch]

i want to make game like nimble quest

the head must move precisely to make the followers move correctly

[ancient thorn]

Alright. Saw the steam video just now.

Will you be needing real-life like physics simulations, like making objects collide with players or players with enemies?

That's the strength of the physics system, but not all games need it.
Movement is achieved by either adding forces or manipulating the rigidbody.velocity directly

[analog hatch]

yes, that game has same collider that player be hit by enemies' projectiles

[ancient thorn]

and is the collision visually simulated? ie. does it influence the movement of the character because of the physics properties (not direct coding)

[analog hatch]

yes, at least currently

[ancient thorn]

How does that work when you move when being collided with?

or does that ever happen to the player? (ah, yes, you said so earlier)

private Vector2 tempPos;
private void FixedUpdate()
{
  MoveDirection(currentDirection);
  Debug.Log(Vector2.Distance(tempPos, transform.position));
  tempPos = transform.position;
}

    public void MoveDirection(string direction)
    {
        if (direction == "Left")
        {
            rb.velocity = new Vector2(-1 * speed, 0);
        }
        else if (direction == "Right")
        {
            rb.velocity = new Vector2(1 * speed, 0);
        }
        else if (direction == "Up")
        {
            rb.velocity = new Vector2(0, 1 * speed);
        }
        else
        {
            rb.velocity = new Vector2(0, -1 * speed);
        }
    }

in this code you set the velocity
which means you will override physics simulations

Does this currently behave as you want?

[analog hatch]

it depends
usually my collider set as Is Trigger = true, so most collsion is just handled by scripts

[analog hatch]

it think if i can move it correctly, not important how it is moved

i use rb.velocity because its simple for my current brain

[ancient thorn]

The entire reason I'm asking all these questions, is because you seem to care at some level how it is actually moved, because you care about minute differences in distance travelled.

Do you already have followers, and are they in or out of sync?

[analog hatch]

yes, they are sync alr

wierdly, i used same method but they are sync, player doesn't

[ancient thorn]

So there's nothing obvious going wrong, you are mostly worried about the difference in the numbers?

[analog hatch]

yeah, but that cause the movement not smooth

[ancient thorn]

So technically they are not completely in sync?

Do you have an example I can compare to Nimble Quest?

[analog hatch]

hmm, lemme record if i can

[ancient thorn]

I was waiting for a response, but it seems you've been engaged in other conversations. That's bad practice. Good luck.

[analog hatch]

sorry, my disk is out of space at the moment and I have to work right now

[analog hatch]

i think i found the solution
changed interpolate -> none

thank you anyway
