Helo With pacman game movement

hey guys, im a new developer and im trying to build a pacman game just for fun and practice, im scripting the movement of the player witch is basically one constant movement and just changing the rotation

the thing is that sometimes i get a delay from the rotation and im not sure if its the script or some other component in the game object plz help me find something wrong with the script



hey developersss que xopas!, estoy creando un juego estilo pacman solo para practicar y quiero optimizar los movimiento de mi player

la cosa es que siento que aveces el tiempo de respuesta no es el mas optimo y no se si es algun problema de codigo

es un script sencillo en donde mantengo un movimiento continuo hacia adelante y solo cambio la rotacion, la cosa funciona pero aveces demora 1 milesima de segundo y por supuesto se siente

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. public class PlayerMovement : MonoBehaviour
3. {
4. public float moveSpeed = 7f;
5. public bool moveUp = false;
6. public bool moveDown = false;
7. public bool moveLeft = false;
8. public bool moveRight = false;
9.  
10.  
11. private Rigidbody playerRb;
12. private Transform playerRotation;
13. private PlayerDeath playerDeath;
14.  
15.  
16. // Use this for initialization
17. void Awake ()
18. {
19. playerRotation = GetComponent<Transform>();
20. playerRb = GetComponent<Rigidbody>();
21. playerDeath = GetComponent<PlayerDeath>();
22.  
23. }
24.  
25. // Update is called once per frame
26. void FixedUpdate () {
27. MoveRotation();
28. ContinuousMovement();
29.  
30. }
31.  
32. public void ContinuousMovement()
33. {
34. if (playerDeath.isDead != true)
35. {
36. playerRb.MovePosition(transform.position + transform.forward * moveSpeed * Time.deltaTime);
37. }
38. else
39. {
40. moveSpeed = 0f;
41. }
42. }
43.  
44. void MoveRotation()
45. {
46. if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.DownArrow) && moveDown != true)
47. {
48. moveDown = true;
49.  
50. playerRotation.rotation = Quaternion.Euler(0f, 180f, 0f);
51. moveUp = false;
52. moveLeft = false;
53. moveRight = false;
54. }
55.  
56. if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.UpArrow) && moveUp != true)
57. {
58. moveUp = true;
59. playerRotation.rotation = Quaternion.Euler(0f, 0f, 0f);
60. moveDown = false;
61. moveLeft = false;
62. moveRight = false;
63. }
64.  
65. if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.LeftArrow) && moveLeft != true)
66. {
67. moveLeft = true;
68.  
69. playerRotation.rotation = Quaternion.Euler(0f, -90f, 0f);
70. moveUp = false;
71. moveDown = false;
72. moveRight = false;
73. }
74.  
75. if (!Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.RightArrow) && moveRight != true) return;
76. moveRight = true;
77.  
78. playerRotation.rotation = Quaternion.Euler(0f, 90f, 0f);
79. moveUp = false;
80. moveLeft = false;
81. moveDown = false;
82. }
83.  
84.  
85.  
86.  
87.  
88. }
89.  
90.  

 

When I tried the script on a box, sometimes the object would not respond when I pressed an arrow key. Is this what you mean by delay? I was able to fix it by changing Fixed update to Update.

 

Thats correct Thx u!!!! i left a fixedUpdate() for the object to move because it has physics, and for the imput a Update()

 

key presses need to be handled inside of Update()

FixedUpdate() and Update() happen at different times at different rates, if you want to find out more about that check here: http://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/ExecutionOrder.html


also,
[ code] [ /code] tags when you paste in code, it formats it correctly

 

thx u verry much Lefty

 

This is my fixed code

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. using UnityEngine;
3. using System.Collections;
4.  
5. public class PlayerMovement1 : MonoBehaviour {
6.  
7.     public float moveSpeed = 7f;
8.  
9.  
10.     private Rigidbody playerRb;
11.     private Transform playerRotation;
12.    
13.  
14.     // Use this for initialization
15.     void Awake()
16.     {
17.         playerRotation = GetComponent<Transform>();
18.         playerRb = GetComponent<Rigidbody>();
19.     }
20.     // Update is called once per frame
21.     void FixedUpdate()
22.     {
23.        
24.         ContinuousMovement();
25.     }
26.  
27.     void Update()
28.     {
29.          MoveRotation();
30.     }
31.  
32.     public void ContinuousMovement()
33.     {
34.        
35.             playerRb.MovePosition(transform.position + transform.forward * moveSpeed * Time.deltaTime);
36.        
37.        
38.     }
39.     void MoveRotation()
40.     {
41.         if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.DownArrow))
42.         {          
43.             playerRotation.rotation = Quaternion.Euler(0f, 180f, 0f);            
44.         }
45.         if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.UpArrow))
46.         {  
47.             playerRotation.rotation = Quaternion.Euler(0f, 0f, 0f);
48.         }
49.         if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.LeftArrow))
50.         {      
51.             playerRotation.rotation = Quaternion.Euler(0f, -90f, 0f);                      
52.         }
53.         if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.RightArrow))
54.         {
55.             playerRotation.rotation = Quaternion.Euler(0f, 90f, 0f);
56.         }
57.     }
58. }
59.  
60.  

 

Do you mind if I use this script in my project??
