I’m wondering how to stop my player character from slightly rising at the start of the game. It stops rising shortly after I enter play mode. I tried to see if the character’s rigid body mass, axes constraints, or initial velocity caused the problem. I also tried changing the code without success. The brown floor/dirt ground isn’t touching the character and wasn’t altered. Is there something else I should try or a coding solution? Let me know if you need more information, thanks.

using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;

public class PlayerMovement : MonoBehaviour
{
    public float moveSpeed = 5.0f; // Adjust the move speed as needed.
    private Rigidbody playerRigidbody;

    void Start()
    {
        playerRigidbody = GetComponent<Rigidbody>();
    }

    void Update()
    {
        // Handle player movement logic here.
        float horizontalInput = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal");
        float verticalInput = Input.GetAxis("Vertical");

        Vector3 movement = new Vector3(horizontalInput, 0, verticalInput) * moveSpeed * Time.deltaTime;

        // Apply the movement to the Rigidbody.
        playerRigidbody.MovePosition(transform.position + movement);
    }
}

Your character appears to be at y-position 0, but your ground is at -0.11. Perhaps this is the problem but I can’t be sure

When I removed the dirt ground the issue went away. But how could that be since the movable character wasn’t touching the ground?

[bixarrio]

It’s possible that the ground and the ground’s collider wasn’t lined up anymore. But I cannot be 100% sure

Ok. One other question, when I use the key inputs to move my character it moves rather slowly/sluggishly. Is there a simple solution?

You’re moving a rigidbody in Update. It should really be in FixedUpdate because MovePosition (which is also supposed to be used with kinematic rigidbodies) only moves in the physics update.
See here: Unity - Scripting API: Rigidbody.MovePosition
