How to rotate a character towards its movement direction for a walk on planet game?
I've tried transform.rotation = Quaternion.LookRotation(moveDirection); but it's not working for this type of game.
I achieved this walk on planet behavior by following this tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TicipSVT-T8 However, I modified it since I don't want a first person version. Source code for this reference video https://github.com/SebLague/Spherical-Gravity
public class PlayerController : MonoBehaviour {
public float moveSpeed = 3.0f;
Rigidbody myRB;
Vector3 moveAmount;
Vector3 smoothMoveVelocity;
void Start() {
myRB = GetComponent<Rigidbody>();
}
void Update() {
Vector3 moveDir = new Vector3(Input.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal"), 0, Input.GetAxisRaw("Vertical")).normalized;
Vector3 targetMoveAmount = moveDir * moveSpeed;
moveAmount = Vector3.SmoothDamp(moveAmount, targetMoveAmount, ref smoothMoveVelocity, Time.deltaTime);
if (moveAmount != Vector3.zero)
//Rotate player towards movement direction
}
private void FixedUpdate() {
myRB.MovePosition(myRB.position + transform.TransformDirection(moveAmount) * Time.fixedDeltaTime);
}
}
