unity basic movement script code example

Example 1: movement script c#

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

// This script moves the character controller forward
// and sideways based on the arrow keys.
// It also jumps when pressing space.
// Make sure to attach a character controller to the same game object.
// It is recommended that you make only one call to Move or SimpleMove per frame.

public class ExampleClass : MonoBehaviour
{
    CharacterController characterController;

    public float speed = 6.0f;
    public float jumpSpeed = 8.0f;
    public float gravity = 20.0f;

    private Vector3 moveDirection = Vector3.zero;

    void Start()
    {
        characterController = GetComponent<CharacterController>();
    }

    void Update()
    {
        if (characterController.isGrounded)
        {
            // We are grounded, so recalculate
            // move direction directly from axes

            moveDirection = new Vector3(Input.GetAxis("Horizontal"), 0.0f, Input.GetAxis("Vertical"));
            moveDirection *= speed;

            if (Input.GetButton("Jump"))
            {
                moveDirection.y = jumpSpeed;
            }
        }

        // Apply gravity. Gravity is multiplied by deltaTime twice (once here, and once below
        // when the moveDirection is multiplied by deltaTime). This is because gravity should be applied
        // as an acceleration (ms^-2)
        moveDirection.y -= gravity * Time.deltaTime;

        // Move the controller
        characterController.Move(moveDirection * Time.deltaTime);
    }
}

Example 2: movement script unity

//make sure to add a CharacterController to the thing that you want to move
using UnityEngine;

public class PlayerMovement : MonoBehaviour
{
    CharacterController characterController;

    public float jumpSpeed = 8.0f;
    public float gravity = 20.0f;
    public float speed = 9.0f;

    private Vector3 moveDirection = Vector3.zero;

    private void Start()
    {
        characterController = GetComponent<CharacterController>();
    }

    void Update()
    {
        var horizontal = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal");
        var vertical = Input.GetAxis("Vertical");

        transform.Translate(new Vector3(horizontal, 0, vertical) * (speed * Time.deltaTime));

        if (characterController.isGrounded)
        {

            moveDirection = new Vector3(Input.GetAxis("Horizontal"), 0.0f, Input.GetAxis("Vertical"));
            moveDirection *= speed;

            if (Input.GetButton("Jump"))
            {
                moveDirection.y = jumpSpeed;
            }
        }
        moveDirection.y -= gravity * Time.deltaTime;
        characterController.Move(moveDirection * Time.deltaTime);
    }
}

Example 3: unity move character

using UnityEngine;

public class PlayerMovement : MonoBehaviour
{
    [SerializeField] private float speed = 5.0f;

    private void Update()
    {
        var horizontal = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal");
        var vertical = Input.GetAxis("Vertical");
        transform.Translate(new Vector3(horizontal, 0, vertical) * (speed * Time.deltaTime));
    }
}

Example 4: movement script c#

private float speed = 2.0f;
public GameObject character;

void Update () {

	if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.RightArrow)){
		transform.position += Vector3.right * speed * Time.deltaTime;
	}
	if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.LeftArrow)){
		transform.position += Vector3.left * speed * Time.deltaTime;
	}
	if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.UpArrow)){
		transform.position += Vector3.up*speed* Time.deltaTime;
	}forward;
	if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.DownArrow)){
		transform.position += Vector3.down *speed * Time.deltaTime;
	}
}

Example 5: unity player movement script

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;

public class Example : MonoBehaviour
{
    private CharacterController controller;
    private Vector3 playerVelocity;
    private bool groundedPlayer;
    private float playerSpeed = 2.0f;
    private float jumpHeight = 1.0f;
    private float gravityValue = -9.81f;

    private void Start()
    {
        controller = gameObject.AddComponent<CharacterController>();
    }

    void Update()
    {
        groundedPlayer = controller.isGrounded;
        if (groundedPlayer && playerVelocity.y < 0)
        {
            playerVelocity.y = 0f;
        }

        Vector3 move = new Vector3(Input.GetAxis("Horizontal"), 0, Input.GetAxis("Vertical"));
        controller.Move(move * Time.deltaTime * playerSpeed);

        if (move != Vector3.zero)
        {
            gameObject.transform.forward = move;
        }

        // Changes the height position of the player..
        if (Input.GetButtonDown("Jump") && groundedPlayer)
        {
            playerVelocity.y += Mathf.Sqrt(jumpHeight * -3.0f * gravityValue);
        }

        playerVelocity.y += gravityValue * Time.deltaTime;
        controller.Move(playerVelocity * Time.deltaTime);
    }
}
