I need help with my code where I can only jump once but then it's locked for me I think I'm onto something.
Here is my code:
// Start is called before the first frame update
void Start()
{
}
// Update is called once per frame
void Update()
{
Vector3 v = transform.position;
v.x += speed * Input.GetAxis("Horizontal") * Time.deltaTime;
v.z += speed * Input.GetAxis("Vertical") * Time.deltaTime;
transform.position = v;
if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Space) && isGrounded==true)
{
GetComponent<Rigidbody2D>().velocity = Vector2.up * jumpVelocity;
isGrounded = false;
}
void OnCollisionEnter(Collision col)
{
if (col.gameObject.tag == ("Ground") && isGrounded == false)
{
isGrounded = true;
}
}
}
}
You nested the OnCollisionEnter method inside the Update.
This way it is a local function and not found by the Unity Physics / Message System -> it will never be called.
Another issue in your code: Whenever there is a Rigibody/Rigibody2D involved you do not want to set or access stuff via the Transform component. This will break the physics and collision detection!
And finally note that Physics and Physics2D are two completely separate engines! If you want to be moving and detect collisions in 3D space then you have to use a Rigidbody, not a Rigibody2D!
It should rather be
[Header("References")]
[SerializeField] private Rigidbody _rigidbody;
[Header("Debugging")]
[SerializeField] private bool isGrounded;
private void Awake()
{
if(!_rigidbody) _rigidbody = GetComponent<Rigidbody>();
}
// Update is called once per frame
private void Update()
{
var x = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal");
var y = Input.GetAxis("Vertical");
// Clamp the vector so it has a maximum magnitude of 1
// this prevents that diagonal movement is overall faster
var moveInput = Vector2.ClampMagnitude(new Vector2(x,y), 1) * speed;
// instead of using the Transform simply change the rigidbody velocity accordingly
var velocity = _rigidbody.velocity;
velocity.x = moveInput.x;
velocity.z = moveInput.y;
_rigidbody.velocity = velocity;
// it is cheaper to first check a simple bool flag
// if this already fails we can skip the more expensive "GetKeyDown"
if (isGrounded && Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Space))
{
_rigidbody.velocity = Vector2.up * jumpVelocity;
isGrounded = false;
}
}
// This method should be on class level and not nested under Update
private void OnCollisionEnter(Collision col)
{
// if already "isGrounded" we can skip the more expensive "CompareTag"
if (!isGrounded && col.gameObject.CompareTag("Ground"))
{
isGrounded = true;
}
}

I am making a game that runs up infinite stairs.
First, I coded prototype code that can run infinite hallway by manipulating the player's Z position and it works.
Then, I change that code to manipulate the player's Y position.
This is HallWayController script
void FixedUpdate()
{
this.handleInfiniteHallway();
}
private void handleInfiniteHallway()
{
if (this.isPlayerOutOfBounds())
{
float posYmod = HALLWAY_HEIGHT;
if (this.player.position.y > MAX_Y_BOUND)
{
posYmod *= -1;
}
this.player.position = new Vector3(this.player.position.x, this.player.position.y + posYmod, this.player.position.z);
Debug.Log("Player Y position: " + this.player.position.y);
}
}
private bool isPlayerOutOfBounds()
{
return this.player.position.y > MAX_Y_BOUND || this.player.position.y < MIN_Y_BOUND;
}
With this code, the game malfunctions just like the player have two Y position simultaneously.
What I found:
If I use FixedUpdate(), the player's position doesn't change on game play view, but debug.Log says player Y Position has changed. And if player ever reached Y_Bound, code inside if(this.isPlayterOutOfBounds()) infinitely executes.
If I use Update() instead of FixedUpdate(), the player's position does change in game play view and debug.Log, but sometimes the player flashes back and forth between the original position and repositioned position. And if player ever reached Y_Bound code inside if(this.isPlayterOutOfBounds()) infinitely executes.
This is Player Controller script that linked to the player game object
using UnityEngine;
[RequireComponent(typeof(CharacterController))]
public class PlayerController : MonoBehaviour
{
[SerializeField] private float playerSpeed = 10.0f;
[SerializeField] private float jumpHeight = 1.0f;
[SerializeField] private float gravityValue = -9.81f;
private bool isFlashLightOn = true;
public GameObject lightSource;
private CharacterController controller;
private Vector3 playerVelocity;
private bool groundedPlayer;
private InputManager inputManager;
private Transform cameraTransform;
private void Start()
{
controller = gameObject.GetComponent<CharacterController>();
inputManager = InputManager.Instance;
cameraTransform = Camera.main.transform;
lightSource.gameObject.SetActive(true);
isFlashLightOn = true;
}
void FixedUpdate()
{
groundedPlayer = controller.isGrounded;
if (groundedPlayer && playerVelocity.y < 0)
{
playerVelocity.y = 0f;
}
Vector2 movement = inputManager.GetPlayerMovement();
Vector3 move = new Vector3(movement.x, 0, movement.y);
move = cameraTransform.forward * move.z + cameraTransform.right * move.x;
move.y = 0f;
controller.Move(move * Time.deltaTime * playerSpeed);
// Changes the height position of the player..
if (inputManager.PlayerJumped() && groundedPlayer)
{
playerVelocity.y += Mathf.Sqrt(jumpHeight * -3.0f * gravityValue);
}
playerVelocity.y += gravityValue * Time.deltaTime;
controller.Move(playerVelocity * Time.deltaTime);
}
void Update()
{
if (inputManager.PlayerFlashLightOn())
{
isFlashLightOn = !isFlashLightOn;
lightSource.gameObject.SetActive(isFlashLightOn);
}
}
}
Hmm, I think I quess what is the problem here. See comments I added
// You may call this twice on each frame, depending on your frame rate
void FixedUpdate()
{
this.handleInfiniteHallway();
}
private void handleInfiniteHallway()
{
if (this.isPlayerOutOfBounds())
{
// Problem is probably here. When your object hits another limit, you move it all HALLWAY_HEIGHT, so it hits another limit
// If you move just half of the height, your character returns to the middle.
// Original float posYmod = HALLWAY_HEIGHT;
float posYmod = HALLWAY_HEIGHT / 2;
if (this.player.position.y > MAX_Y_BOUND)
{
posYmod *= -1;
}
this.player.position = new Vector3(this.player.position.x, this.player.position.y + posYmod, this.player.position.z);
Debug.Log("Player Y position: " + this.player.position.y);
}
}
private bool isPlayerOutOfBounds()
{
return this.player.position.y > MAX_Y_BOUND || this.player.position.y < MIN_Y_BOUND;
}
If you call FixedUpdate method, it is run twice a frame so position is moved back and forth during one frame. Update method would be called each frame player is jumping between borders.
Have tried a few things but they didn't seem to work, so I was hoping that you guys could help me.
I've trying to make this demo for a little time now, but I can't seem to get the jumping to work.
When I try to jump while running, I can't. But I can however jump forever when i get up in the air, which is something that I would like to remove from the game.

I am not sure why you are trying to control the gravity of the player when gravity is already applied to any gameObject with the RigidBody or RigidBody2D component attached to it. It is good that you are reading input in the Update() function and applying the motion inside of the FixedUpdate(). Here is a slight tweak to your current code, let me know how this goes.
Rigidbody2D rb2d;
public float moveVelocity = 8f;
public float jumpVelocity = 15f;
private float horizontalInput = 0.0f;
// did the player just try to jump
private bool justJumped = false;
void Start()
{
rb2d = GetComponent<Rigidbody2D>();
}
void Update()
{
// grab how the player is moving - this value is mapped to your arrow keys
// so horizontal is left / right arrow and Vertical is up/down arrow
// the value is between [-1, 1] respectively
horizontalInput = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal");
// player tried to jump, we are not currently jumping and the player is grounded
if(IsGrounded() && Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.UpArrow))
{
justJumped = true;
}
}
private void FixedUpdate()
{
// handle our jump
if(justJumped)
{
// we just applied a jump so do not apply it again
justJumped = false;
// you can either apply the jump by setting velocity, but I would recommend using AddForce instead
rb2d.AddForce(Vector2.up * jumpVelocity);
}
// we are moving in either the left or right direction
if(horizontalInput != 0)
{
// move in the horizontal axis, but keep our Y component of velocity the same in case we jumped
rb2d.velocity = new Vector2 (horizontalInput * moveVelocity, rigidBody.velocity.y);
}
else
{
// just in case we are not moving, assure this by setting the horizontal component of velocity to 0
rb2d.velocity = new Vector2 (0f, rigidBody.velocity.y);
}
}
// determines if this object is currently touching another object that is marked as ground
private bool IsGrounded() {
// our current position (the player)
Vector2 position = transform.position;
// the direction we are going to aim the raycast (down as that is where the ground is)
Vector2 direction = Vector2.down;
// the ground should be close, so check it very close to the player
float distance = 1.0f;
// check if we hit anything that is on the layer of just ground - ignore all other layers
// IMPORTANT:: Make sure to make a Layer and set all of your ground to this layer
RaycastHit2D hit = Physics2D.Raycast(position, direction, distance, LayerMask.GetMask("GroundLayer"));
// we hit a ground collider, so we are grounded
if (hit.collider != null) {
return true;
}
return false;
}
Let me know if this works for you. I changed a few things around such as using GetAxis() instead of using the arrow keys as in Unity, these are the same. I also changed your jump to use an AddForce2D instead of setting velocity. The one addition was I added a IsGrounded() which will detect if whatever object this script is on (I assume it is on your player object) is near or touching objects below them that are marked as GroundLayer. If you have questions comment below.
here's my jump code it updates in void Update
void Jump()
{
if(isgrounded == true)
{
amountofjumps = jumps;
}
if(Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.UpArrow) && amountofjumps > 0)
{
rb2d.velocity = Vector2.up * jump * Time.deltaTime;
amountofjumps--;
}
else if(Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.UpArrow) && amountofjumps == 0 && isgrounded == true)
{
rb2d.velocity = Vector2.up * jump * Time.deltaTime;
}
}
here are the variables I use for my jump code
bool isgrounded;
public float groundcheckradius;
public LayerMask whatisground;
public float jump;
private int amountofjumps;
public int jumps;
here's how I detect the ground
void checkforground()
{
isgrounded = Physics2D.Raycast(transform.position,Vector2.down, groundcheckradius,whatisground);
}
void OnDrawGizmos()
{
Gizmos.color = Color.red;
Gizmos.DrawLine(transform.position, transform.position + Vector3.down * groundcheckradius);
}
thanks in advance
Velocity is often used for moving object try rigidbody2d.AddForce() instead.
void Jump()
{
if (isgrounded == true)
{
amountofjumps = jumps;
}
if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.UpArrow) && amountofjumps > 0 && isgrounded == true)
{
rb2d.AddForce(transform.up * jump, ForceMode2D.Impulse);
amountofjumps--;
}
}
First of all Time.deltaTime makes no sense when setting a velocity. A velocity already is frame-rate independent so when you multiply a velocity by Time.deltaTime (about 0.017 for 60 fps) it becomes extremely small/slow.
Secondly currently you overwrite the entire velocity so if your player is moving forward it will completely stop any movement on the X axis.
And finally when you are grounded you want always be able to jump ... not only if amountofjumps == 0 which will never be the case since right before you have set it to amountofjumps = jumps;! You don't want to check the amountofjumps at all when jumping from the ground!
You would probably rather use e.g.
// get the current velocoty of the rigidbody
var velocity = rb2d.velocity;
// Only overwrite the Y velocity with the jump
velocity.y = jump;
// re-assign the changed vector to the rgidbody
rb2d.velocity = velocity;
And then I would change the logic to something like e.g.
private void Jump()
{
if(isgrounded)
{
amountofjumps = jumps;
// when you are grounded you can always jump!
// Not only when the amountofjumps == 0
// actually when you are grounded the amountofjumps shouldn't matter at all
if(Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.UpArrow))
{
DoJump();
}
}
// As before while not grounded the amountofjumps is taken into account
else if(amountofjumps > 0)
{
if(Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.UpArrow))
{
DoJump();
}
}
}
private void DoJump()
{
// get the current velocoty of the rigidbody
var velocity = rb2d.velocity;
// Only overwrite the Y velocity with the jump
velocity.y = jump;
// re-assign the changed vector to the rgidbody
rb2d.velocity = velocity;
// Always reduce the amount of jumps also when jumping from the ground
amountofjumps--;
}
So i have a simple scene in unity, a player with a parallax background and a Tilemap as a ground, as well as some very simple post processing. I know this isn't a The minute i move, there is a consistent stutter just under ever second. I'm not sure whether it's to do with my player movement code, camera movement or anything else. I'm also using a Cinemachine virtual camera. My rigidbody interpolation is set to interpolate and collision detection set to continuous. Here's my player movement if this helps. Here is a sample of what it looks like, if you look at the background or the tilemap it's quite noticeable. https://youtu.be/h2rSheZWtKs

You are setting rb.velocity in both the Update() and FixedUpdate() methods. I would try only using one of those.
On top of that, your jump check also re-applies the X velocity along with the upward force. So if you're jumping the player will be pushed forward at double speed.
You also have an error being outputted in the console about an Index being out of range... I would look into that.
Can you also post your code for the parallax background?
FixedUpdate is a method where you want to do everything physics, player-controller and simulation related.
Update is just for rendering-related fluff i.e. code of no real consequence other than making things look correctly.
Hence:
Move all your player/physics controller code to FixedUpdate.
Move bg parallax code to Update.
Use Time.deltaTime (in Update) and Time.fixedDeltaTime (in FixedUpdate) time steps when animating or interpolating between values.
Ad #3.: Although - as #Menyus noted (below) - Time.deltaTime is all you really need.
Time.fixedDeltaTime is for that extra intent explicitness (but was necessary in earlier unity versions).
I was hoping I could get some help! I've been trying to make a platformer using velocity to move but I can't find a good way to do jumping using the system. Every frame the velocity's y just resets itself and I don't know how to create a jump. I have tried using ForceMode.VelocityChange and I have tried to write out equations. The player falls extremely slowly even with gravity turned on.
playerBody.AddForce(Vector3.up * jumpForce, ForceMode.VelocityChange);
I have the same issues when I try to set the y velocity to change with gravity
float MoveDirectionY = jumpForce * Physics.gravity.y;
enter image description here
Nothing seems to be working here. When i play the game gravity still pulls the object down slowly but if i turn off gravity it doesnt pull the object down at all.
The game does log the statement letting me know that it does know the space button was pressed.alt text

Do not play with rigidbody in Update method. Use FixedUpdate() instead.
In addition, do not change velocity using rb.velocity = ... but use rigibody.AddForce() method. Try something like this:
void FixedUpdate() //using rigidbody? => ONLY FIXEDUPDATE
{
horizontalInput = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal");
verticalInput = Input.GetAxis("Vertical");
playerFacingAngleY += horizontalInput * turnSpeed;
Vector3 playerFacingDirection = new Vector3(0, playerFacingAngleY, 0);

float moveDirectionZ = (FocalPoint.transform.position.z - gameObject.transform.position.z) * speed * verticalInput * Time.deltaTime;
Vector3 moveDirection = new Vector3(moveDirectionX, 0.0f, moveDirectionZ); //0.0f - just turn on gravity in rigidbody component or you can change it if you want some additional Vertical force
playerBody.AddForce(moveDirection, ForceMode.VelocityChange); //force mode change to whatever you want
if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Space) && isOnGround == true)
{
playerBody.AddForce(Vector3.up * jumpForce, ForceMode.VelocityChange);
isOnGround = false;
print("player has jumped");
}
}
