script failing to move player character
I'm trying to create a character controller that allows me to move a character in first person, with the right/left keys rotating 90 degrees, the back key rotating 180, and the forward key moving the character a set distance. Most of this is working, but when I try to actually move the character forward, I run into some issues. If I use the player.Move method, the character moves forward some variable amount between 0.5 and 0.9, with none of the involved variables seeming to affect the distance. I can't use this because the number is inconsistent - if it were the same each time, I could work with it. If I use AddForce, the character doesn't move at all. I would like to have either the AddForce version moving correctly, or the player.Move version moving consistently. Thank you!

Horizontal and Vertical are axis, not buttons. You're requesting if a single input is down, when an axis consists of multiple inputs. What you need is something like...
float h = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal");
float v = Input.GetAxis("Vertical");
if (h != 0)
{
//rotate object using h as the modifier, if h == 1, it's right, if h == -1 its left
transform.Rotate(0, h * rotationSpeed * Time.deltaTime, 0);
}
if (v != 0)
{
//move object using v as the modifier, if v == 1 its forward if v == -1 its backward
player.$$anonymous$$ove(transform.forward * moveDistance * v * Time.deltaTime);
}
Yeah sorry, plus I assumed he's on a PC since he's calling out to $$anonymous$$eys and Axis' only result in being -1, 0, or 1, on a PC or whatever the $$anonymous$$/max values are set to in inspector.
