Respawning with no gravity
enter code hereokay, i have my script for the respawn as the tornado twins showed it. and i added that script to the character prefab that came with the island in unity, and the respawn works, my player goes back to y=200 (thats where i origanlly started) but, i want my player to fall to the ground. can anyone please help me?
my script is:
var speed = 6.0; var jumpSpeed = 8.0; var gravity = 20.0; var bullitPrefab : Transform;
private var dead = false; private var moveDirection = Vector3.zero; private var grounded : boolean = false;
function OnControllerColliderHit(hit : ControllerColliderHit) { if(hit.gameObject.tag == "fallout") { dead = true; //substract life here
}
}
function FixedUpdate() { if (grounded) { // We are grounded, so recalculate movedirection directly from axes moveDirection = new Vector3(Input.GetAxis("Horizontal"), 0, Input.GetAxis("Vertical")); moveDirection = transform.TransformDirection(moveDirection); moveDirection *= speed;
}
// Apply gravity moveDirection.y -= gravity * Time.deltaTime;
// Move the controller var controller : CharacterController = GetComponent(CharacterController); var flags = controller.Move(moveDirection * Time.deltaTime); grounded = (flags & CollisionFlags.CollidedBelow) != 0; }
function Update() { if(Input.GetButtonDown("Jump")) { var bullit = Instantiate(bullitPrefab, GameObject.Find("spawnPoint").transform.position, Quaternion.identity); bullit.rigidbody.AddForce(transform.forward * 4000);
}
}
function LateUpdate() { if(dead) { transform.position = Vector3(0,200,-50);
}
}
@script RequireComponent(CharacterController
)
im sorry if someone posted this question already, i couldnt find it.
hi, i made this question, and i forgot to say that when i respawn, i dont fall, but when the level starts, i fall.
Most likely the case is that when you first launch the level your character controller is not in fact resting exactly on the ground plane so gravity kicks in and the player drops to the ground. You can check this by viewing the player from the side and check the capsule for the char controller's position.
and to answer your question you can just change the +Y transform position of your respawn location. So if 200 is exactly level with the ground, then just add 50 units or so (0.250.-50) and you should be above the ground.
thank you, i fixed it, but this was helpful, now i respawn right where i started in the beginning, but now, i fall like i should.
here's my complete move around script (Updated):
//shooting var bullitPrefab : Transform; var PlayerPrefab : Transform; //dying private var dead = false; private var Respawn = true; static var SCORE = 0;
static var DSN = false;
//geting hit static var gotHit = false; static var IsPlayer = true;
//respawn function LateUpdate() { if(DSN) {
// activates the game object. gameObject.active = true; } if(dead && !Respawn) { transform.position = Vector3(3604.086, 610.248, -1853.058); dead = false; print("i respawned yet again!"); } if(dead && Respawn) {//where the player respawns transform.position = Vector3(4664.995, 592.0738, -1793.104); dead = false; print("i respawned!"); } }
function OnTriggerEnter( hit : Collider ) { if(hit.gameObject.tag == "fallout3") { dead = true; HealthControl.LIVES -= 1; } if(hit.gameObject.tag == "fallout2") { Respawn = false; } //when the player falls off (this doesnt really work too good. ) if(hit.gameObject.tag == "fallout") { dead = true; //subtract life here HealthControl.LIVES -= 1; print("i fell off..."); }
//getting hit (this works) if(hit.gameObject.tag == "enemyProjectile") { gotHit = true; HealthControl.HITS += 1; Destroy(hit.gameObject); print("i got hit!"); } //manipulating weather if(hit.gameObject.tag == "weather") { ParticleEmitToggle.WCONTROL = true; print("Now i can control weather."); } //level select button controls if(hit.gameObject.tag == "Level2") { GUIshader.Level2 = true; print("hit level two"); }
if(hit.gameObject.tag == "Level3") { GUIshader.Level3 = true; print("hit level three"); }
if(hit.gameObject.tag == "Level4") { GUIshader.Level4 = true; print("hit level four"); }
if(hit.gameObject.tag == "Level5") { GUIshader.Level5 = true; print("hit level five"); }
if(hit.gameObject.tag == "WORK") { MovingPlatform4.work = true; } }
/// This script moves the character controller forward /// and sideways based on the arrow keys. /// It also jumps when pressing space. /// Make sure to attach a character controller to the same game object. /// It is recommended that you make only one call to Move or SimpleMove per frame.
var speed : float = 6.0; var jumpSpeed : float = 8.0; var gravity : float = 20.0;
private var moveDirection : Vector3 = Vector3.zero;
function Update() { var controller : CharacterController = GetComponent(CharacterController); if (controller.isGrounded) { // We are grounded, so recalculate // move direction directly from axes moveDirection = Vector3(Input.GetAxis("Horizontal"), 0, Input.GetAxis("Vertical")); moveDirection = transform.TransformDirection(moveDirection); moveDirection *= speed;
//jumping if (Input.GetButton ("Jump")) { moveDirection.y = jumpSpeed; print("I'm jumping!"); } }
// Apply gravity moveDirection.y -= gravity * Time.deltaTime;
// Move the controller controller.Move(moveDirection * Time.deltaTime);
//main menu button if(Input.GetKeyDown("escape")) { Application.LoadLevel("Main Menu"); print("Main Menu Loading..."); }
//shooting if(Input.GetKeyDown("f")) {//makes a fireball prefab var bullit = Instantiate(bullitPrefab, gameObject.Find("spawnPoint").transform.position, Quaternion.identity);
bullit.tag = "wormProjectile";
//shoots it forward
bullit.rigidbody.AddForce(transform.forward * 4000);
//makes it go completely straight
useGravity = false;
print("I shot a fireball!");
}
//prints your score
print("Score: "+SCORE); //changes your score switch(SCORE) { case 10: Application.LoadLevel("Main Menu"); break; }
}

you didn't tell unity that ur not dead anymore after respawning, so it'll keep returning you to the desired point because of the if(dead) statement.
but didn't i put under the if(dead) statement:
dead = false; ? then that would say that i'm not dead anymore. right?
OH!!! you were talking about my original script right? ok. well, my completed script, the one that is correct is the one in the answer before yours.
