Jumping Stopped Working.

Questions & Answers

Hello, I edited the CharacterController.Move script, and now it won’t jump, I don’t know what I need to do to get it to work. Here’s my current Script:

var speed : float = 12.0;
var jumpSpeed : float = 8.0;
var gravity : float = 20.0;
var RotateSpeed : float = 3.0;
var SprintSpeed = 20;
var Sprinting : boolean = false;
private var moveDirection : Vector3 = Vector3.zero;

function Update() {
var controller : CharacterController = GetComponent(CharacterController);
if (controller.isGrounded) {

if (Input.GetButton ("Jump")) {
moveDirection.y = jumpSpeed;
}

moveDirection = Vector3(0, 0,Input.GetAxis("Vertical"));
//Rotate
transform.Rotate(0,Input.GetAxis("Horizontal") * RotateSpeed, 0);
moveDirection = transform.TransformDirection(moveDirection);
moveDirection *= speed;

if(Input.GetKey("up")){
if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.LeftShift)){
transform.Translate(Vector3.forward * SprintSpeed * Time.smoothDeltaTime);
Sprinting = true;
}
}
}
// Apply gravity
moveDirection.y -= gravity * Time.smoothDeltaTime;

// Move the controller
controller.Move(moveDirection * Time.smoothDeltaTime);

if(Sprinting){
SprintingFunc();
}

}

function SprintingFunc(){
BreathDeduct();
}

function BreathDeduct(){
//Take away some breath
}

Thanks in advance for any help! :slight_smile:

Did you change input settings for “Jump” button?

Edit->Project Settings->Input

You assign a new vector to movedirection, overwrite jump decision

moveDirection = Vector3(0, 0,Input.GetAxis("Vertical"));

it should be

moveDirection += Vector3(0, 0,Input.GetAxis("Vertical"));

Edit: You should check is your character is grounded. Unity - Scripting API: CharacterController.isGrounded

if(CharacterController.IsGrounded)
{
moveDirection += Vector3(0, 0,Input.GetAxis("Vertical"));
}
