Question How to make my character slide tackle?

I wanted to implement this feature in my game (01:23):

When the character is crouching and can slide and tackle his opponents.

transform.translate didn't help, my character just keeps teleporting along the X axis and I don't know how to make transition smooth and visible.

 

You could look for Youtube tutorials on something like this but unless you luck out with one, it's like you'll need to roll your own logic to do any kind of custom movement like this.

Fortunately that's fairly easy to do, and you will only do it one step at a time, so start breaking down the pieces of it into one action at a time and work on it.

Like this guy:

It looks like it's ultimately nothing more than a dash. There are tons of dash tutorials out there, so you can always just follow one of those and modify it to be a slide (only allow the move to be performed if the player is crouching, etc.).

 

If you've already implemented basic character walking than you should already know how to make your character move. You probably didn't use transform.translate for that either, right?

 

Found a better solution, since rb.velocity couldn't work properly I used Add Force.

 

Yup, as the documentation states:
https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Rigidbody-velocity.html
"In most cases you should not modify the velocity directly, as this can result in unrealistic behaviour - use AddForce instead "
