How do I make my sliding smoother?
I've encountered a problem where my player object would slide of a cliff very roughly and bumpy. I've been following a tutorial that was filmed in 2010 found here. In the tutorial they use a gravity function that they write themselves and a character controller. My slide function uses a ray that shoots down to the ledge and return normal.y. Here is the code:
My Gravity function:
void ApplyGravity()
{
if (MoveVector.y > -TerminalVelocity)
MoveVector = new Vector3(MoveVector.x, MoveVector.y - Gravity * Time.deltaTime, MoveVector.z);
if (TP_Controller.CharacterController.isGrounded && MoveVector.y < -1)
MoveVector = new Vector3(MoveVector.x, -1, MoveVector.z);
}
My slide function:
void ApplySlide()
{
if (!TP_Controller.CharacterController.isGrounded)
return;
SlideDirection = Vector3.zero;
RaycastHit hitInfo;
if (Physics.Raycast(transform.position, Vector3.down, out hitInfo))
{
if (hitInfo.normal.y < SlideThreshold)
SlideDirection = new Vector3(hitInfo.normal.x, -hitInfo.normal.y, hitInfo.normal.z);
}
if (SlideDirection.magnitude < MaxControllableSlideMagnitude)
MoveVector += SlideDirection;
else
{
MoveVector = SlideDirection;
}
}
I don't know if this will help, but this is my motion process function:
void ProcessMotion()
{
MoveVector = TP_Camera.Instance.transform.TransformDirection(MoveVector);
MoveVector = new Vector3(MoveVector.x, 0, MoveVector.z);
// Normalize MoveVector if Magnitude > 1
if (MoveVector.magnitude > 1)
MoveVector = Vector3.Normalize(MoveVector);
//Apply Slide if applicable
ApplySlide();
//Multiply MoveVector by MoveSpeed
MoveVector *= MoveSpeed;
//Reapply VerticalVelocity MoveVector.y
MoveVector = new Vector3(MoveVector.x, VerticalVelocity, MoveVector.z);
//Apply gravity
ApplyGravity();
//Move the character in World Space
TP_Controller.CharacterController.Move(MoveVector * Time.deltaTime);
}
Thank you for looking in to this post. If any more information would help i will provide it as soon as possible. Any idea of what could cause this problem would be appreciated.
