Make the character move a certain direction on collision
Hi there, I am trying to make my character move in the positive y direction when it collides with an object, in this case the wall.
For some reason this does not work at all, even the debug.log doesn't print out. How do I make this work?
I am relatively new to javascript coding and so I'm sorry if it is a really easy thing to fix.
Code sample below:
function OnCollisionEnter (collision : Collision) {
if (collision.gameObject.tag == "Wall" && Input.GetKey(KeyCode.LeftControl)) {
Debug.Log("Collided");
var pushDir = Vector3 (0, 1, 0);
gameObject.rigidbody.velocity = pushDir;
}
}
Did you attached a Rigidbody to the object that collide with the wall?
The object need a Rigidbody and the wall a collider when both enter in the trigger then the action start.
I tried that, but I can't get the character to move if it has a rigidbody, so I changed the line of code for the direction of movement to: gameObject.transform.forward = pushDir;
But that still doesn't work
Try gameObject.rigidbody.velocity.y = pushDir; With the rigidbody, of course.
Try gameObject.rigidbody.velocity.y = pushDir; With the rigidbody, of course.
@Addyarb, pushDir is of type Vector3, gameObject.rigidbody.velocity.y is of type float, this will end in $$anonymous$$rs.
Here you go, it's in C#. I tested with a character that has a rigidbody controller and it works well.
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
public class pushBack : MonoBehaviour {
public int pushDir = 10;
public int pushBackSpeed = 1;
// Use this for initialization
void Start () {
}
// Update is called once per frame
void Update () {
}
void OnCollisionEnter (Collision collision) {
if (collision.gameObject.tag == "Wall" ) {
Debug.Log("Collided");
transform.position = transform.position +
transform.forward * -1 * pushBackSpeed;
//gameObject.rigidbody.velocity.y = pushDir;
}
}
}
Just tried this and for some reason it doesn't seem to work
