im using the firstperson script when space is clicked the player jumps dos anyone know how i can add if the button is held down the player jumps higher

static var thirdperson:boolean=true;

var speed = 6.0; var jumpSpeed = 8.0; var gravity = 20.0;

static var run:boolean = true;

private var moveDirection = Vector3.zero; private var grounded : boolean = false;

function FixedUpdate() { if(thirdperson) { speed = 5; if(run){ var CPH = GetComponent("CPH"); if(Input.GetButton("shift")){ speed = 10; CPH.energy -=20 * Time.deltaTime; } } if (grounded) {

    // We are grounded, so recalculate movedirection directly from axes
    moveDirection = new Vector3(0, 0, Input.GetAxis("Vertical"));
    moveDirection = transform.TransformDirection(moveDirection);
    moveDirection *= speed;

    if (Input.GetButtonDown ("Jump")) {

        moveDirection.y = jumpSpeed;
    }

}

// Apply gravity
moveDirection.y -= gravity * Time.deltaTime;

// Move the controller
var controller : CharacterController = GetComponent(CharacterController);
var flags = controller.Move(moveDirection * Time.deltaTime);
grounded = (flags & CollisionFlags.CollidedBelow) != 0;

} }

@script RequireComponent(CharacterController)

I think this should point you in the right direction? Basically just keep adding a decreased percentage of the initial jump velocity to your character for a little while if the button is being held.

Jumpspeed is your jump variable. Just increase that, it's currently set to 8.0. Set it to whatever you like to increase it.
