Question by weinermelon · Jun 18, 2012 at 10:59 PM · strafe

Flying Orb Strafe Help C Sharp

In this little game I am working on, I have a little flying orb. I am using the mouse look script from the first person controller, but the movement script is just something I am trying to make to teach myself. Right now it works well. I can move forward with the W key and turn with mouse look and I can fly around using that, but I want to be able to strafe and go backwards as well. Here is the script. using UnityEngine; using System.Collections;

 public class Move : MonoBehaviour {
     
     public float forwardSpeed;
     public float sidewaysSpeed;
     
     // Use this for initialization
     void Start () {
     
     }
     
     // Update is called once per frame
     void Update () {
        
         if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.W)) {
         transform.Translate(Vector3.forward * forwardSpeed * Time.deltaTime);
         transform.Translate(Vector3.up * Time.deltaTime, Space.World);
         transform.Translate(Vector3.down * Time.deltaTime, Space.World);    
 
             
         
             if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.Space)) {
                 forwardSpeed = 50f;
                 
             }    
         
             else {
                 forwardSpeed = 20;
             }
         }
     }
 }

Could someone figure out how to make him strafe and move backwards? Also is the way I have the speed boost set up the most efficient. It seems like checking every frame to if the space bar isn't down to set speed to 20 like a bit much. Any help would be much appreciated.

Why are you translating upward and downward, from the same amount and at the same moment ? They cancel each other.

Anyway, to move backward you need to do like the forward movement -> input detection, Translate( Vector3.back backSpeed Time.deltaTime );. For the straff, the best is probably an animation.

weinermelon : Thank you very much. That helped solve my problem. I had tried writing that before, but I was putting it under the forward control ins$$anonymous$$d of by itself so it didn't work. Thx.
