Question by Mog10 · Oct 05, 2013 at 08:29 AM · c#input

Character cannot move Diagonally forwards

I have been building a custom character controller from this set of tutorials Set of Tutorials. I can move diagonally backwards pressing the S and D keys or S and A but not forwards pressing W and A. I'm sure I've done everything right as they have said and have no idea why it is not working.

My Code: TP_Controller

 using UnityEngine;
 using System.Collections;
 
 public class TP_Controller : MonoBehaviour {
     
     public static CharacterController CharacterController;
     public static TP_Controller Instance;
     
     void Awake () 
     {
         CharacterController = GetComponent("CharacterController") as CharacterController;
         Instance = this;
     }
     
     // Update is called once per frame
     void Update () 
     {
         if (Camera.main == null)
             return;
         
         GetLocomotionInput();
         
         TP_Motor.Instance.UpdateMotor();
     }
     
     void GetLocomotionInput()
     {
         var deadZone = 0.1f;
         
         TP_Motor.Instance.MoveVector = Vector3.zero;
         
         if (Input.GetAxis("Vertical") > deadZone || Input.GetAxis("Vertical") < -deadZone)
             TP_Motor.Instance.MoveVector += new Vector3(0, 0, Input.GetAxis("Vertical"));
         
         if (Input.GetAxis("Horizontal") > deadZone || Input.GetAxis("Horizontal") < -deadZone)
             TP_Motor.Instance.MoveVector += new Vector3(Input.GetAxis("Horizontal"), 0, 0);
     }
     
 }

TP_Motor

 using UnityEngine;
 using System.Collections;
 
 public class TP_Motor : MonoBehaviour {
     
     public static TP_Motor Instance;
     
     public float MoveSpeed = 10f;
     
     public Vector3 MoveVector { get; set; }
     
     // Use this for initialization
     void Awake () 
     {
         Instance = this;
     }
     
     // Update is called once per frame
     public void UpdateMotor () 
     {
         SnapeAlignCharacterWithCamera();
         ProcessMotion();
     }
     
     void ProcessMotion()
     {
         // Transform MoveVector to World Space
         MoveVector  = transform.TransformDirection(MoveVector);
         
         // Normalize MoveVector if Magnitude > 1
         if (MoveVector.magnitude > 1)
             MoveVector = Vector3.Normalize(MoveVector);
         
         // Multiply MoveVector by MoveSpeed
         MoveVector *= MoveSpeed;
         
         // Multiply MoveVector by DeltaTime
         MoveVector *= Time.deltaTime;
         
         // Move the Character in World Space
         TP_Controller.CharacterController.Move(MoveVector);
     }
     
     void SnapeAlignCharacterWithCamera()
     {
         if (MoveVector.x != 0 || MoveVector.z != 0)
         {
         transform.rotation = Quaternion.Euler(transform.eulerAngles.x,Camera.main.transform.eulerAngles.y,transform.eulerAngles.z);
         }
     }
 }

I just tossed your scripts onto a simple scene...a plane and a capsule. It worked fine. Diagonal movement worked in all four directions. I've sometimes seen strange limits with character controllers when there are child objects with colliders. Try turning off the colliders of any children on the character. Also you can try my test above, empty scene, capsule, scripts.

Thanks I totally didn't realise I left a collider on the child object indicating forwards!
