Object position values glitch?
Is this a glitch within Unity itself or am I crazy? This simple code prints out the XYZ location of the player:
var Player : GameObject;
function Start () {
Player = GameObject.Find("My Player");
}
function Update () {
Print(Player.transform.position);
}
In this code, "My Player" is simply the default Unity FPS controller character. When I run this, I keep my player character still. The X and Z values remain unchanged like I expect, but the Y value fluctuates randomly!
Why would that be? My character is not moving at all!
This is driving me mad! Any ideas?
Gravity is causing it to move, collision reflects it back to it's former position. Floating point errors do the rest. I wouldn't be too worried, it's harder to get virtual objects to sit still than toddlers.
Sometimes you have to nail them to the ground. I have no solution to Unity objects though. . .
Yup. I don't remember if it was me who turned Gravity on for $$anonymous$$y Player object, but turning it off fixed the problem.
I knew it would be simple. Thank you.
