Hi Guys, i have a question for 2D game. I am creating a infinity runner game with 0 gravity scale on my characters’ rigidbody2d ( so it is flying). the gravity for the physic is set at default -9.81. I attempted to create a moving “area effector 2d” using a box collider. Everything was fine before my character moving into the area. When my character went into the box collider zone, the character is affected by the force (this is desired result). However, once the character left the zone, the character still being affected by the force.
Update: i have tried to modified the box collider to make it smaller (x and y to 1). And they still provide the same outcome.
Any idea on this?
Just in case any beginner fall into this problem, i’ve decided to keep this here with a solution provided by @Anthony#8354 @ discord.
[SOLUTION:] "
Anthony:
Your drag is set to 0 right?
In the absense of any external forces (such as drag or gravity), an object in motion should stay in motion until another force is acted on it.
It should retain the same velocity even after it leaves the effector zone, it’s just that there’s no additional force to increase or change that velocity."
Yes. I’ve got a very wrong concept that the getAxis input i keyed in will create a force (since the character is moving forward. i thought by moving right will causes the forces neutralize themselve but it will not in fact! Many thanks for those who extended their help
As for the movement, all i have are these
public class playerScript : MonoBehaviour {
public Vector2 speed = new Vector2 (50, 50);
// Use this for initialization
void Start () {
}
// Update is called once per frame
void Update () {
float inputX = Input.GetAxis ("Horizontal");
float inputY = Input.GetAxis ("Vertical");
Vector3 movement = new Vector3 (speed.x * inputX, speed.y * inputY, 0);
movement *= Time.deltaTime;
transform.Translate (movement);
