Rigidbody - Slowly flies?

Questions & Answers
1

For some reason my player slowly goes up in the air like a baloon at about 0.05 per second…
If I put the mass any higher than 1 then it slowly goes down by 0.05 per second… So if the player walks down a hill he just glides… no matter what his mass, it could be 5 or 500 it still falls at an incredibly slow rate?

If you terrain if flat, you can do something like :

function Update () 
{
    transform.position.y=groundLevel;
}

groundLevel is the level of the ground.

Hope that will help you.

You should try to lerp the object velocity to zero and see if that helps. I suggest putting this when the player doesn’t input any movement controls

void Update()
{
    if (Input.GetAxis ("Horizontal") != 0.0f || Input.GetAxis ("Vertical") != 0.0f)
    {
        // This is just an example of the player is inputting any movement
    }

    else
    {
        // The player is not inputting any movement
        rigidbody.velocity = new Vector3.Lerp(rigidbody.velocity, Vector3.zero, Time.deltaTime);
    }
}

Also, follow what jmgek suggested, try to disable gravity and use scripted movements. For gravity-like movement in the air you could use rigidbody.AddForce downwards (or lerping velocity)
