Character movement
So I'm new to Unity, and was following a tutorial a couple months ago for a game and want to pick it up again, but I'm having trouble with character movement, this is the code I have: http://pastebin.com/KfdFp6nm
I know that's probably the shittiest code you've ever seen, but hey, I made it mostly by myself with the help from the wiki and some tutorials (I hope it's at least understandable). So I'm just looking for advice on how I could make this cleaner/optimized (also functional, since with this code, animations just freeze most of the time) or maybe a tutorial that could help me with this because all the ones I've found are kinda outdated.
Thanks in advance.
You could simplify that down to a few lines.
void Update ()
{
// You could do all of this in one line, but your question gave of a learning vibe (and 1-line can be ugly)
//
// We'll want to print these values later to see what should be happening and when.
bool shouldWalk = (Input.Get$$anonymous$$ey($$anonymous$$eyCode.W)
|| Input.Get$$anonymous$$ey($$anonymous$$eyCode.S)
|| Input.Get$$anonymous$$ey($$anonymous$$eyCode.A)
|| Input.Get$$anonymous$$ey($$anonymous$$eyCode.D));
// Similarly for our Run animation
bool shouldRun = shouldWalk && Input.Get$$anonymous$$ey($$anonymous$$eyCode.LeftShift);
// Then just call your functions that seem to control animation components
//
// Note that our definition of shouldRun will always be false if the input for Walking
// isn't currently active.
//
Walk(shouldWalk);
Run(shouldRun);
// Then check what should be happening
Debug.LogFormat("Should Walk? {0}, Should Run? {1}", shouldWalk, shouldRun);
}

I took existing animations in the asset store but when I aply scripts to my 3D third person character, he doesn't move anywere in play mode. How can I fix it?

I'm searching a way to implement character movements in Unity 2019.1.5 because I followed some tutorial but they didn't convince me very much. So I'd like to found a good system to move the player and to fight quite well against enemies. If someone have some advice, he or she can answer to this post.
