Player keeps bouncing off the walls

Questions & Answers
1

After many attempts at creating walls, I’ve finally created a player hitbox with rigidbody that collides iwth box colliders. However, instead of just stopping at the walls, they do tiny bounces off of them. Here’s the video of it and my basic movement code. Remember this is all just playing around at first, not a serious attempt at a game.

#pragma strict

public var moveSpeed : float = 10f;

function Update ()
{
    if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.UpArrow))
        transform.Translate(Vector3(0, 1, 0) * moveSpeed * Time.deltaTime);
    
    if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.DownArrow))
        transform.Translate(-Vector3(0, 1, 0) * moveSpeed * Time.deltaTime);
    
    if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.LeftArrow))
        transform.Translate(-Vector3(1, 0, 0) * moveSpeed * Time.deltaTime);
    
    if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.RightArrow))
        transform.Translate(Vector3(1, 0, 0) * moveSpeed * Time.deltaTime);
}

Have you tried giving your player and the world a default physics material with a Bounciness value of 0?

try setting the player’s rigidbody drag to infinity, this usually fixes similar problems to this i’ve encountered
