Normal move overwrite dash

Unity Engine
1

Hi!

I have a simple movement, and a dash for double tap, but if I have both, I can’t use the dash, because somehow the velocity overwrite the AddForce. Can someone help me with this?

private void Update()
        {
            Vector2 mousePosition = Camera.main.ScreenToWorldPoint(Input.mousePosition);

            Vector2 heading = mousePosition - playerRb.position;
            Vector2 direction = heading / heading.magnitude;
            Vector2 movement = direction * movementSpeed;
            Vector2 dash = direction * dashSpeed;


            // Double Tap check
            if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0))
            {
                float timeSinceLastClick = Time.time - lastClickTime;
                if (timeSinceLastClick <= DOUBLE_CLICK_TIME)
                {
                    playerRb.AddForce(dash, ForceMode2D.Impulse);
                }
                lastClickTime = Time.time;
            }

            // Simple movement
            if (Input.GetMouseButton(0))
            {

                playerRb.velocity = movement;

                // Shooting
                if (canShoot)
                {
                    canShoot = false;
                    bulletPooler.SpawnFromPool("Bullet", transform.position + new Vector3(0, 0.4f), transform.rotation);
                    StartCoroutine(SetShootBool());
                }

            }
            if(Input.GetMouseButtonUp(0))
            {
                playerRb.velocity = Vector2.zero;
            }

        }

You essentially need a state machine. At the very least you need to keep track of whether you’re currently dashing or not.

If you’re not dashing, process movement normally. If you are dashing, process that. Transition between those states as necessary.
