Joystick question.

Unity Engine

Hi. I’ve been developing a little android game,but the problem is i made my character with rigidbody and box and circle colliders. Now everywhere i find joysticks use character controllers,but they do not stack with rigidbody sadly =/ Is it possible to make joystick for rigidbody with box and circle colliders? And if yes,could anyone explain how? This is my character control script:

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class PlayerController : MonoBehaviour {

	public float maxSpeed = 10f;
	bool facingRight = true;

	bool grounded = false;
	public Transform groundCheck;
	float groundRadius = 0.2f;
	public LayerMask whatIsGround;
	public float jumpForce = 700f;
	bool doubleJump = false;

	Animator anim;

	void Start () {
		anim = GetComponent<Animator>();
	}

	void FixedUpdate () {
		//Check if grounded.
		grounded = Physics2D.OverlapCircle(groundCheck.position, groundRadius, whatIsGround);
		anim.SetBool("Ground", grounded);

		if(grounded)
			doubleJump = false;

		anim.SetFloat("vSpeed", rigidbody2D.velocity.y);






		float move = Input.GetAxis ("Horizontal"); //Controller
		//Run animation.
		anim.SetFloat("Speed", Mathf.Abs(move));
		rigidbody2D.velocity = new Vector2(move * maxSpeed, rigidbody2D.velocity.y);
		if(move > 0  !facingRight) {
			Flip();
		} else if(move < 0  facingRight) {
			Flip();
		}
	}

	
	//Android jump button.
	void OnGUI() {
		if(GUI.Button(new Rect(Screen.width - 160,Screen.height - 130, 150, 120),"Jump!")) {
		if((grounded || !doubleJump)) {
			anim.SetBool("Ground", false);

			rigidbody2D.velocity = new Vector2(rigidbody2D.velocity.x, 0);
			rigidbody2D.AddForce(new Vector2(0, jumpForce));

			if(!doubleJump  !grounded) {
				doubleJump = true;
			}
		}
	}
	}

	//PC jump.
	void Update() {
			if((grounded || !doubleJump)  Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Space)) {
				anim.SetBool("Ground", false);
				
				rigidbody2D.velocity = new Vector2(rigidbody2D.velocity.x, 0);
				rigidbody2D.AddForce(new Vector2(0, jumpForce));
				
				if(!doubleJump  !grounded) {
					doubleJump = true;
				}
			}
		}

	//Face direction.
	void Flip() {
		facingRight = !facingRight;
		Vector3 theScale = transform.localScale;
		theScale.x *= -1;
		transform.localScale = theScale;
	}
}

Thank you in advance :slight_smile:
Cheers.

A joystick is just an object which handles input from the player. What you decide the input results in, is your choice.

So it is possible then? Thats the only thing i wanna know :slight_smile:
