Different gravity settings

Hey Community,

I am trying to make a little "test-game".. I want to do a platform, which is moving up (so far, I did it per Rigidbody2D, and then just changed the Gravity settings in 'Edit' -> 'Project Settings...' to x:0 y:3) and a character which has normal gravity (x:0 y:-9.81).

Is there any way to create special gravity settings for my platform?


I am really happy about a helpful answer, because I tried this the last hours but I couldn't figure out how to do it

I am using Unity 2018.3.6f1 Personal

 

What exactly do you mean by changing the gravity of the platform? Like, interacting with the platform changes the character's gravity? Or, the platform itself is affected by changing gravity? Anyways, I use this for my gravity changes: https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Physics2D-gravity.html

Note: You can change the value of the Vector 2 to whatever you wish, -9.8 is just closely simulating normal gravity.

 

I want two different gravity settings for two different objects, so for example one is x= 0 y= 2 and the other one is x= 0 y=-2

 

Just try:

Code (CSharp):

1.  Physics2D.gravity = new Vector2(0, 2);
2.  
3. //Other gravity
4. Physics2D.gravity = new Vector2(0, -2);

 

Physics2D.gravity is a global value. The Rigidbody2D component has a gravity multiplier on it.
