(C#)How To Disable Gravity From Script?

Question

Yes I know there are lot's of questions about this, but when I try to get them to work they give me errors when I use the most common way: Rigidbody.useGravity or Rigidbody2D.useGravity. It says that rigidbody or rigidbody2D doesn't contain a definition of useGravity. So how can I disable my gravity then? Is there a way to change the location of the gravity from rigidbody2D to my character script? Like a bool or something.

Use reference on rigidbody:

  //For rigidbody
  this.rigidbody.useGravity = false;

  //For rigidbody2D
  this.rigidbody2D.gravityScale = 0.0f;

I hope than it will help you

I change gravityscale=0 in rigidbody2d component then It work for disable my character fall down But when I use velocity=new vector(5,0) for my character move horizontal it run straight away with no stop position.

Is there any solution for disable gravity can use addforce function and velocity for moving horizontal ?

There is a new answer, and it is not documented in the Scripting API:

Turning off gravity from script.

This is what the Scripting documentation tells you to do: gameObject.rigidbody.useGravity = false;

This is the error message you get when you do that: Assets/Scripts/ReceiveTaps.cs(59,14): error CS0619: UnityEngine.GameObject.rigidbody' is obsolete: Property rigidbody has been deprecated. Use GetComponent() instead. (UnityUpgradable)'

And this is how it works: gameObject.GetComponent ().useGravity = false;
