Rigidbody speed limit

Unity Engine
1

Hi,

Im learning how to use unity and started on a little project to get familiar with coding in unity and using the engine.

I’m trying to create movement for my player and the script that i have now works like i want it to, however my cube moves around quite fast so i want to limit the speed. I couldnt think of a way to do this though so i wonder how you would do it.

It would also be appreciated to tell me if im doing this character movement the correct way or if theres a better way of going about it.

Heres my code:

public float rotationSpeed = 20f;
    public float maxSpeed = 0.7f;

    Vector3 m_movementVec;
    Quaternion m_rotation = Quaternion.identity;
    Rigidbody m_rigidbody;

    // Start is called before the first frame update
    void Start()
    {
        m_rigidbody = GetComponent<Rigidbody>();
    }

    // Update is called once per frame
    void Update()
    {
        // Get user input
        float horizontal = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal");
        float vertical = Input.GetAxis("Vertical");

        // Create vector from user input and normalize
        m_movementVec.Set(horizontal, 0f, vertical);
        m_movementVec.Normalize();

        //Calculate what faces forward
        Vector3 desiredForward = Vector3.RotateTowards(transform.forward, m_movementVec, rotationSpeed * Time.deltaTime, 0f);

        // Set the rotation var
        m_rotation = Quaternion.LookRotation(desiredForward);

        //Set the new positions
        m_rigidbody.MovePosition(m_rigidbody.position + m_movementVec);
        m_rigidbody.MoveRotation(m_rotation);

Thanks !

I found a solution myself ! thanks anyway

This is the code i added for anyone with a similar question:

        // Max the speed
        Vector3 newPos = m_rigidbody.position + m_movementVec;
        if (newPos.magnitude > maxSpeed)
        {
            newPos = m_rigidbody.position + m_movementVec * maxSpeed;
        }
