Moving a object up

Questions & Answers
1

Hello,

I’m currently working on a funfair simulation.
The code I have is responsible for the up/down movement of the cylinders.

It works flawless when there are no connected hinges/rigidbodies, but once added it glitches out.

I think something in my code is wrong, but i’m not sure what is the problem.
My guess is the “transform.position”, but i’m not sure what to replace it with.

I hope someone can help me fix this :slight_smile:

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.UI;

public class KoppieKoppie : MonoBehaviour
{
    public KeyCode increaseKey;
    public KeyCode decreaseKey;
    public float maxHeight;
    public float changePerFrame = 1;
    public float progress { get; private set; }
    public Schuin schuin;
    public Text progressText;
    private float lastAnimation = 0;

    private float height = 0.0f;
    private float initialY;
    

    public float richting = -1.0f;

    void Start()
    {
      initialY = transform.position.y;
    }

    void Update()
    {
        if (Input.GetKey(increaseKey) && (lastAnimation == 0 || Time.time - lastAnimation > 3))
        {
            richting = 1.0f;
            lastAnimation = Time.time;
        }
        else if (Input.GetKey(decreaseKey) && (schuin.progress <= 0.005f) && (lastAnimation == 0 || Time.time - lastAnimation > 3))
        {
            richting = -1.0f;
            lastAnimation = Time.time;

        }

       progress = Mathf.Min(1, Mathf.Max(0, progress + (richting * changePerFrame * Time.maximumDeltaTime)));
       transform.position = new Vector3(transform.position.x, initialY + progress * maxHeight, transform.position.z);

        if (progressText != null)
            progressText.text = (progress * 100).ToString("0") + "%";
    }
}

Try using RigidBody.AddForce() instead
