i am making a ice ski game. above code works up to some extent.

my need is when i press uparrow the character speed should gradually increase as in a car game and should move in z direction.

when i press left arrow it should turn a certain angle(as human turns) to left and should travel the same direction it has rotated.

when i press right arrow it should turn a certain angle(as human turns) to right and should travel the same direction it has rotated.

when i press uparrow the speed should increase gradually as acceleration in car.

when user release the uparrow the character should not stop immediately.it should travel a 3 meter due slipping effect of ice and then i want to stop the character to stop.

here my problem is when i press left arrow the character turns left and travels a distance.if the character is facing x direction after turing left.but when i press uparrow it is traveling in z direction.

irrespective of where the character is facing now.so i want when i press left arrow it should travel in the same path the character is facing now.

how to re arrange or do rectification in this code or new code to get my character works as in real ice skating game.

as i am new to unity i cannot able to find the correct solution for this problem. i an searching for past 5 days

the character should move as in a ice game

thanks in advance.

see this video

i want my character movement like is this video

That's a game not a video and it's a ski game not an ice skating game. As it goes that game is horrendous. Clearly a bunch of copy and paste codes with no intention to make it act smoothly or realistically. I would advise against trying to replicate this in anyway unless you plan to make a massive improvement on it (which wouldn't be hard given it's p/$$ poor quality) I think I understand what effect your after but when playing that game I'm sort of thrown, do you want to recreate just the character movement SOLELY without the camera? or how the character is interacting with the world? Blah in future try not to use TERRIBLE games as an example as to what you want in a game lol.

I have created an ice skating effect achieved by using this script and adjusting input settings. Adjust in edit ~> project settings ~> input settings the vertical axis to have a gravity of 0.1 (more if it's too slippy or less if it's not slippy enough) and sensitivity to 1 (more if it's too slow to accelerate, less if it's too quick to accelerate) and make sure snap is unchecked.

private var charController : CharacterController;
private var moveDirection : Vector3 = Vector3.zero;
var TurnSpeed : float = 50;
var MoveSpeed : float = 10;
var gravity = 50.0;

function Start()
{
    charController = GetComponent(CharacterController);
}

function Update()
{
    //if the player is on the ground grant movement capabilities
    if(charController.isGrounded)
    {
        //controls rotation
        transform.eulerAngles.y += Input.GetAxis("Horizontal")*(Time.deltaTime*TurnSpeed);
        //controls direction on a local basis (not world)
        moveDirection = Vector3(Input.GetAxis("Vertical"),0,0);
        moveDirection = transform.TransformDirection(moveDirection);        
    }
    //adds gravity to controller so it stays on the ground
    moveDirection.y -= gravity * (Time.deltaTime/2);
    //moves the controller
    charController.Move(moveDirection * (Time.deltaTime * MoveSpeed));
}

If there is any problems with this then let me know but all I did was put this script on a cube then added a character controller to the cube, adjusted my input settings to those values and hit play. Done

Code looks much better now :)

Your question is well-formed, but it covers quite a bit of ground. If you find you're not getting the answers you need here, you might instead try solving (and asking about, if necessary) one problem at a time.

Based on your post and your code, it's not immediately clear to me what parts are working and what parts (if any) are not working, and what parts in particular you need help with. In short, I think a more specific question with narrower scope might be easier to answer.

That's just my take on it though (someone may very well come along and give you exactly the answer you need :).

You need to set a variable with the value transform.TransformDirection(Vector3.forward) and update it in the Update() function to get the front of the character. Then just use

controller.Move(theVarMentionedAbove*Time.deltaTime)

I suggest a slightly different logic. Since this is a physics based game, then it should prbably be done with rigidbodies and colliders, not character controllers. What I did when I was making a marble runway game, is modify the values of a constant force component. That way, everything is done in the physics step. Also, You can add the ice physic material to your terrain collider. One final tip, use `Input.GetAxis` or `Input.GetAxisRaw` for your movement code, that makes the code much cleaner. Good luck =]

im planning of creating soccer game .im beginer in unity and this will be my first project . i have watch tutorials and read about using mocap to animate actions such as shooting passing and others and i have a limted information about scripting and i know how to make conrols for the animation in unity.but the thing that i need to know is how the characters will react with the ball because mocap only track movment a body and that good ,but how im going to mix the animations without ball with a ball??

hello unity developer
I have a question
I wanna make a script that when my character enter a room start moving permanently without hit to another objects
is anyone can help me?
