Question:

I have made a script with movement, that finally works as i want it to, except one thing... I want it to be a first person game, but the way the movement works now, is on the global axis, which means that W is always torwards one specific direction, no matter what direction my camera is turning... How do i fix this? i want the movement to stay how it is, but with the W key to always be forward depending on the way the camera or player is looking.

Please let me know how my script would look edited, or atleast what part i have to change.

I would also like to add that i would love to be able to do a wall jump, but i am not sure how to add that behavior.

Here is my movement script:

public class MovementScript : MonoBehaviour { public float speed; public float jumpforce; public float gravity = 25; private Vector3 moveVector; private Vector3 lastMove; private float verticalVelocity; private CharacterController controller; // Use this for initialization void Start () { controller = GetComponent<CharacterController> (); //Låser og gemmer musen Cursor.lockState = CursorLockMode.Locked; } // Update is called once per frame void Update () { //Låser musen op if (Input.GetKeyDown ("escape")) Cursor.lockState = CursorLockMode.None; moveVector = Vector3.zero; moveVector.x = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal"); moveVector.z = Input.GetAxis("Vertical"); if (controller.isGrounded) { verticalVelocity = -1; if (Input.GetButton("Jump")) { verticalVelocity = jumpforce; } } else { verticalVelocity -= gravity * Time.deltaTime; moveVector = lastMove; } moveVector.y = 0; moveVector.Normalize (); moveVector *= speed; moveVector.y = verticalVelocity; controller.Move (moveVector * Time.deltaTime); lastMove = moveVector; } }

You need to go from local to world space:

for example when you want to move on the x-axis regarding the player's orientation, the local vector is (1, 0, 0), which you get from your input axis, but the CharacterController need a world based direction (see <a href="https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/CharacterController.Move.html" rel="nofollow">the doc of the Move function</a>)

<blockquote>

A more complex move function taking absolute movement deltas.

</blockquote>

To get this, use <a href="https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Transform.TransformDirection.html" rel="nofollow">Transform.TransformDirection</a> like this

worldMove = transform.TransformDirection(moveVector); controller.Move (worldMove * Time.deltaTime);

<strong>EDIT</strong> regarding your issue with the controller moving a bit after releasing the input:

That's because GetAxis gives you a smoothed value. Replace GetAxis by GetAxisRaw and it should work

Modify the final moving code to

controller.Move(moveVector.z * transform.forward * Time.deltaTime); controller.Move(moveVector.x * transform.right * Time.deltaTime); controller.Move(moveVector.y * transform.up * Time.deltaTime);

Alternatively, suppose your character is <strong>only rotated about the Y axis</strong>, you can look into rotating your moveVector by your character's Y rotation so moveVector's forward points parallel to your chracter's forward.

I found a good explaination of rotating a vector here: <a href="https://answers.unity.com/questions/46770/rotate-a-vector3-direction.html" rel="nofollow">https://answers.unity.com/questions/46770/rotate-a-vector3-direction.html</a>

Rotating a vector:

moveVector = Quaternion.Euler(0, transform.eulerAngles.y, 0) * moveVector;
