Help me

I've been working on this game for a week now and I still have the same problem in the movement script.
Whenever I boost the jump force my character just instantly fly's in the air

Code (CSharp):

1. using System.Collections;
2. using System.Collections.Generic;
3. using UnityEngine;
4. public class character : MonoBehaviour
5. {
6. public float MovementSpeed = 1;
7. public float JumpForce = 1;
8. private Rigidbody2D _rigidbody;
9. private void Start()
10. {
11. _rigidbody = GetComponent<Rigidbody2D>();
12. }
13. private void Update()
14. {
15. var movement = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal");
16. transform.position += new Vector3(movement, 0, 0) * Time.deltaTime * MovementSpeed;
17. if (Input.GetButtonDown("Jump") && Mathf.Abs(_rigidbody.velocity.y) < 0.001f)
18. {
19. }
20. _rigidbody.AddForce(new Vector2(1, JumpForce), ForceMode2D.Impulse);
21. }
22. }

 

With Physics (or Physics2D), never manipulate the Transform directly. If you manipulate the Transform directly, you are bypassing the physics system and you can reasonably expect glitching and missed collisions and other physics mayhem.

Always use the .MovePosition() and .MoveRotation() methods on the Rigidbody (or Rigidbody2D) instance in order to move or rotate things. Doing this keeps the physics system informed about what is going on.

Are you trying to learn how to write a player controller or do you just want one? There's plenty on Youtube and here's two more:

CharacterController CharMover broken:

I wrote about this before: the Unity example code in the API no longer jumps reliably.

I reported it to Unity via their docs feedback in October 2020. Apparently it is still broken:

https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/CharacterController.Move.html

Here is a work-around:

I recommend you also go to that same documentation page and ALSO report that the code is broken.

When you report it, you are welcome to link the above workaround. One day the docs might get fixed.

If you would prefer something more full-featured here is a super-basic starter prototype FPS based on Character Controller (BasicFPCC):

That one has run, walk, jump, slide, crouch... it's crazy-nutty!!

 

Sorry im new to coding is there any easier way?

 

This video has some of the best, basic movement controls i have seen and highly recommend it:
