Question by taxcollection · Jun 13, 2017 at 06:57 PM · unity 5scripting beginnerbasic

How to make ball softly stop! Basic scripting

So i have a ball that rolls but it suddenly stops when i let go of the keys, i want it stop but stop softly with a bit of extra roll not just a sudden stop. How can i achieve this?

this is my ballcontroll script

public class Ballcontroller2 : MonoBehaviour {

 public float movespeed;
 private Rigidbody myrigidbody;

 private Vector3 moveInput;
 private Vector3 moveVelocity;


 // Use this for initialization
 void Start () {
     myrigidbody = GetComponent<Rigidbody> ();
     
 }
 
 void Update () {
     moveInput = new Vector3 (Input.GetAxis("Horizontal"), 0f, Input.GetAxis("Vertical"));
     moveVelocity = moveInput.normalized * movespeed;
 }

 void FixedUpdate () {
     myrigidbody.velocity = moveVelocity;
 }

}


Thanks in advance! --byrd :)

Ins$$anonymous$$d of using myrigidbody.velocity, check out the AddForce method.

Also take a look at your rigid body in the inspector and make sure your drag and angular drag values are appropriately low.

Another thing to look into is using physics materials. You can set their friction and bounce components as well as how they interact with other physics materials' bounce and friction components.

Additionally, you might want to take a look at Rigidbody.maxAngularVelocity -- Increasing this will let the ball roll much faster, rather than sliding along the ground.

Try to tweak the physic material of your ball and your floor (especially the friction parameter), it could help you.
