Unity Engine

Hi guys and girls…

Just thought I would post this for you, its a simple footsteps script I’ve been using for years works in all games I have developed… just make slight adjustments to the script to make the sound work perfectly…

So heres the script enjoy!!

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class Footsteps : MonoBehaviour {

public AudioClip audioFootsteps;
private Vector3 prevPosition;
float minDistance = 2.4f;

void Start()
{
  prevPosition = transform.position;
}

void Update()
{
    if (Vector3.Distance(transform.position, prevPosition) > minDistance)
    {
        AudioSource.PlayClipAtPoint(audioFootsteps, transform.position);
        prevPosition = transform.position;
    }
}
}

There’s a Like button on every post so you don’t dredge up nine-year-old dead threads into everyone’s feed. It’s against the forum rules to bring up old threads unless you have vital updates to share.

This is a good start to a script (and surprisingly, not much broken in the years past). It does cause a whole invisible AudioSource to be created, where you could do better by pooling a set of footstep objects. Once you’re pooling objects, you can start looking at putting down decals or dust clouds at the same time.
