Help with Basic Movement Script
Hi, i'm a beginner on unity3d and I followed a tutorial to make an easy game I make my "car" on unity and make this javascript:
var forwardSpeed : float = 3; var turnSpeed : float = 2;
function Update() { //this is the forward speed that will actually happen var forwardMoveAmount = Input.GetAxis("Vertical")*forwardSpeed;
//actual turn amount var turnAmount = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal")*turnSpeed;
transform.Rotate(0,turnAmount,0); }
but the car only rotates (with the side arrows)... I want the car to move forward and backward with the other arrows... could you help me plz? I attach you a photo of the model I don't know if it can be the problem... http://img4.imageshack.us/img4/83/moversefototodo.jpg
PD : do you know if I can add rigid body and will work too?
You are calculating how quickly you would like the car to move, but you aren't actually applying the movement to the object. You could try something like this:
var forwardSpeed : float = 3;
var turnSpeed : float = 2;
function Update() {
//this is the forward speed that will actually happen
var forwardMoveAmount = Input.GetAxis("Vertical")*forwardSpeed;
//actual turn amount
var turnAmount = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal")*turnSpeed;
transform.Rotate(0,turnAmount,0);
transform.position += transform.forward * forwardMoveAmount * Time.deltaTime;
}
P.S. Sure you can add a rigidbody to the car object!
or a wheel collider, which is more realistic but a bigger pain to get running.
