Disable Movement

Hey

I'm trying to disable the players ability to move my games character in C#. Right now I have the character playing its death animation when it makes contact with a trigger collider, but the player can still move the character lying face up on the ground, right left up down.

I've been reading several posts on this but none have either an answer or get a very specific code for their needs.

you would think it would be easy to just disable a specific key or ability from the input list but so far I haven't found it.

Anyone know a good way?

 

Assuming that you are fetching input from a single script's Update method, simply disable that component.

 

If your using physics to move your character just make the rigidbody kinematic

 

Either this or just have a boolean check for your main movement update.

 

Code (csharp):

1.  
2.  
3. void Update()
4. {
5.   if(isDead)
6.      return;
7. }
8.  
9.  

 

Thanks

I added

if (dead)
{
return;
}

to the code and that did the trick.

Thanks again!
