Hill Help

Hello! For my 2D Platformer, my player can run along the ground and jump just fine. However, when I reach a hill, instead of running along it like he would the ground, my character moves along it and behaves as if he was in the air. Is there any way I can fix this? Here is my Player Controller code. Thanks for the help!

Code (CSharp):

1. public float speed = 5f;
2.     public float jumpSpeed = 8f;
3.     private float movement = 0f;
4.     private Rigidbody2D rigidBody;
5.     public Transform groundCheckPoint;
6.     public float groundCheckRadius;
7.     public LayerMask groundLayer;
8.     private bool isTouchingGround;
9.     private Animator playerAnimation;
10.     public Vector3 respawnPoint;
11.     public LevelManager gameLevelManager;
12.     public AudioClip Running;
13.     private AudioSource Source;
14.     public float volLowRange = .5f;
15.     public float volHighRange = 1.0f;
16.  
17.     // Use this for initialization
18.     void Start()
19.     {
20.         rigidBody = GetComponent<Rigidbody2D>();
21.         playerAnimation = GetComponent<Animator>();
22.         respawnPoint = transform.position;
23.         gameLevelManager = FindObjectOfType<LevelManager>();
24.         Source = GetComponent<AudioSource>();
25.     }
26.  
27.     // Update is called once per frame
28.     void Update()
29.     {
30.         isTouchingGround = Physics2D.OverlapCircle(groundCheckPoint.position, groundCheckRadius, groundLayer);
31.         movement = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal");
32.         if (movement > 0f)
33.         {
34.             rigidBody.velocity = new Vector2(movement * speed, rigidBody.velocity.y);
35.             transform.localScale = new Vector2(59.20651f, 59.20651f);
36.             Source.PlayOneShot(Running, 1F);
37.         }
38.         else if (movement < 0f)
39.         {
40.             rigidBody.velocity = new Vector2(movement * speed, rigidBody.velocity.y);
41.             transform.localScale = new Vector2(-59.20651f, 59.20651f);
42.         }
43.         else
44.         {
45.             rigidBody.velocity = new Vector2(0, rigidBody.velocity.y);
46.         }
47.         if (Input.GetButtonDown("Jump") && isTouchingGround)
48.         {
49.             rigidBody.velocity = new Vector2(rigidBody.velocity.x, jumpSpeed);
50.         }
51.         playerAnimation.SetFloat("Speed", Mathf.Abs(rigidBody.velocity.x));
52.         playerAnimation.SetBool("OnGround", isTouchingGround);
53.        
54.     }
55.  
56.     private void OnTriggerEnter2D(Collider2D other) {
57.         if(other.tag == "FallDetector") {
58.             gameLevelManager.Respawn();
59.          
60.         }
61.         if(other.tag == "CheckPoint") {
62.             respawnPoint = other.transform.position;
63.         }
64.     }
65.  

 

maybe change the layer from the hill to "ground"

 

All of my hills are in the Ground layer. I put a Polygon 2D Collider on them. Should I change the collider?

 

I have just tested: Physics2D.OverlapCircle works with Polygon2D collider (on 18.3). Also you shouldn't change it.
Sorry, I have no idea what can be wrong. Start the game, go on the hill, switch to the scene tab, select groundcheckpoint object and check if it touches the hill collider.

 

I don't think it does, but I'm not too sure, I couldn't see the circle that comes up when I investigate the Groundcheck.

 

try to move the groundcheckpoint on the hills collider by running game

 

Should there be any changes I have to make to the Groundcheck for Level 2? The character will run up hills just fine in Level 1, but will still move along them as if he's airborne in Level 2.
