It probably has something to do with your movement script!

It should look something like this:

 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;
         
         if (Input.GetButton ("Jump")) {
             moveDirection.y = jumpSpeed;
         }
     }
 
     // Apply gravity
     moveDirection.y -= gravity * Time.deltaTime;
     
     // Move the controller
     controller.Move(moveDirection * Time.deltaTime);
 }

No, it isn't a problem. I need it to ONLY move Left right forewards and backwards. I don't want it to be ABLE to move diagonally.

So I need someone to edit the movement script so that the player is only allowed to go in 4 directions.

I am having a similar problem, albeit with addForces. Did you ever find a solution to this?
