Can someone explain how this collision detection work and why it fails sometimes?
I tried to adapt the 2d platformer character controller from this live session: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wGI2e3Dzk_w&list=PLX2vGYjWbI0SUWwVPCERK88Qw8hpjEGd8
Into a 2d top down character controller. It seemed to work but it is possible to move into colliders with some combination of keys pressed that I couldn't really find out, but it's easy to make it happen.
The thing is I don't understand how the collision detection is really working here so I don't know how to fix it. I appreciate if someone can explain how this works.
Thanks :)
This is how the player is set up:
PlayerControllerTopDown2D.cs:
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
public class PlayerControllerTopDown2D : PhysicsObject2D
{
public float maxSpeed = 7;
private SpriteRenderer spriteRenderer;
private Animator animator;
private bool facingUp, facingDown, facingLeft, facingRight;
void Awake()
{
spriteRenderer = GetComponent<SpriteRenderer>();
animator = GetComponent<Animator>();
facingUp = true;
facingDown = facingLeft = facingRight = false;
}
protected override void ComputeVelocity()
{
Vector2 move = Vector2.zero;
move.x = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal");
move.y = Input.GetAxis("Vertical");
targetVelocity = move * maxSpeed;
if (move.y > minMoveDistance && !facingUp)
{
clearOthersAndSet(0);
// sprite rotation
}
if (move.y < -minMoveDistance && !facingDown)
{
clearOthersAndSet(1);
// sprite rotation
}
if (move.x < -minMoveDistance && !facingLeft)
{
clearOthersAndSet(2);
// sprite rotation
}
if (move.x > minMoveDistance && !facingRight)
{
clearOthersAndSet(3);
// sprite rotation
}
}
void clearOthersAndSet(int x)
{
switch (x)
{
case 0:
facingUp = true;
facingDown = facingLeft = facingRight = false;
break;
case 1:
facingDown = true;
facingUp = facingLeft = facingRight = false;
break;
case 2:
facingLeft = true;
facingUp = facingDown = facingRight = false;
break;
case 3:
facingRight = true;
facingUp = facingDown = facingLeft = false;
break;
}
}
}
PhysicsObject2D.cs:
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
public class PhysicsObject2D : MonoBehaviour
{
protected Rigidbody2D rb2d;
protected Vector2 velocity;
protected Vector2 targetVelocity;
protected ContactFilter2D contactFilter;
protected RaycastHit2D[] hitBuffer = new RaycastHit2D[16];
protected List<RaycastHit2D> hitBufferList = new List<RaycastHit2D>(16);
protected const float minMoveDistance = 0.001f;
protected const float shellRadius = 0.01f;
protected bool hitSomething = false;
void OnEnable()
{
rb2d = GetComponent<Rigidbody2D>();
}
void Start()
{
contactFilter.useTriggers = false;
contactFilter.SetLayerMask(Physics2D.GetLayerCollisionMask(gameObject.layer));
contactFilter.useLayerMask = true;
}
void Update()
{
targetVelocity = Vector2.zero;
ComputeVelocity();
}
protected virtual void ComputeVelocity()
{
}
void FixedUpdate()
{
if (hitSomething)
{
targetVelocity = -targetVelocity * 5;
hitSomething = false;
}
velocity.x = targetVelocity.x;
velocity.y = targetVelocity.y;
Vector2 deltaPosition = velocity * Time.deltaTime;
Vector2 move = Vector2.right * deltaPosition.x;
Movement(move, false);
move = Vector2.up * deltaPosition.y;
Movement(move, true);
}
void Movement(Vector2 move, bool yMovement)
{
float distance = move.magnitude;
if (distance > minMoveDistance)
{
int count = rb2d.Cast(move, contactFilter, hitBuffer, distance + shellRadius);
if (count > 0)
hitSomething = true;
else
hitSomething = false;
hitBufferList.Clear();
for (int i = 0; i < count; i++)
{
hitBufferList.Add(hitBuffer[i]);
}
for (int i = 0; i < hitBufferList.Count; i++)
{
float modifiedDistance = hitBufferList[i].distance - shellRadius;
distance = modifiedDistance < distance ? modifiedDistance : distance;
}
}
rb2d.position = rb2d.position + move.normalized * distance;
}
}
