Constant Force and Velocity
Hi! So I have a constant force that is pushing my player upwards for my game but I also have a script that whenever you move left or right it sets the velocity to something pretty low so you don't infinitely move to the left or right. But whenever I move left or right it sets the velocity lower which also completely stops my constant force so it take like 5 seconds to reach max speed again which really messes things up for me. I know this may sound confusing but I'd really enjoy some help.
How are you setting the velocity when you move left/right? if you are assigning a new vector, remember to set the new vector's Y component to whatever the current Y velocity is, so you preserve the Y velocity.
As mentionned by bobisgod, you need to keep the current vertical velocity, and set only the horizontal velocity. Assuming your vertical velocity is on y axis, and horizontal on the x axis :
Vector3 velocity = new Vector3(horSpeed *Input.GetAxis("horizontal"), transform.velocity.y, transform.velocity.z)
this should slove your problem.
