Question by bobsi1 · Oct 10, 2016 at 06:56 PM · movementcontrols

Not changing WASD controls when character turns

Hello everyone. I am currently working on a top down game (dont know if shooter or what) This is just for learning, so i would like to use your guys assistance... So i made my player walk with WASD, and look at my mouse all the time. My problem now is that the direction he looks is always forward (W), but i would like north on the map to always be W, and not forward for him, how can i change that. Here is the code for the character looking at the mouse:

 Ray cameraRay = mainCamera.ScreenPointToRay(Input.mousePosition);
         Plane groundplane = new Plane(Vector3.up, Vector3.zero);
         float rayLength;
 
         if (groundplane.Raycast(cameraRay, out rayLength))
         {
             Vector3 pointToLook = cameraRay.GetPoint(rayLength);
             Debug.DrawLine(cameraRay.origin, pointToLook, Color.blue);
 
             transform.LookAt(new Vector3(pointToLook.x, transform.position.y, pointToLook.z));
         }

please also let me know if there is anything useful i should know, i am completely new, and i would like to do this as much as possible without tutorials, but ofcourse i am willing to do what i need to learn. Thank you for your time.
