Add climbing to Unity Standard Assets 3rd person controller?
I'm prototyping a project using the standard assets Ethan controller right now and I want to add climbing. Currently, I'm using the following script:
public class ClimbableSurface : MonoBehaviour
{
public GameObject player;
public bool canClimb = false;
float speed = 5;
void OnTriggerEnter(Collider other)
{
if (other.gameObject == player)
{
canClimb = true;
player.GetComponent<Rigidbody>().useGravity = false;
}
}
void OnTriggerExit(Collider other)
{
if (other.gameObject == player)
{
canClimb = false;
player.GetComponent<Rigidbody>().useGravity = true;
}
}
void Update()
{
if (canClimb == true)
{
if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.E))
{
player.transform.Translate(Vector3.up * Time.deltaTime * speed);
}
if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.R))
{
player.transform.Translate(Vector3.down * Time.deltaTime * speed);
}
}
}
}
I have successfully invoked the class (public ClimbableSurface cS;) within the ThirdPersonCharacter script and the buttons that I've assigned to climbing up/down work, but it's more like a jump right now. What I believe is happening is that the player starts climbing and then registers as airborne, so then the ThirdPersonCharacter script treats it like a jump and forces the character back down to the ground. Is there a way to make the TPC script ignore raycasting while cS.canClimb == true? Or does anyone have other ideas for successful addition of climbing to this controller?
