Question Newbie trying to code a game with horizontal movement

I'm following a tutorial with a vertical and horizontal movement but I just want to add a horizontal movement. Also, The tutorial add camera scripting but I will use cinemachine so I decide to alterate a bit the code and create a new one based on the original.
After some changes this error apeared.

Assets\Scripts\Test.cs(32,22): error CS0029: Cannot implicitly convert type 'float' to 'UnityEngine.Vector3'

I searched for answers in google but, since I'm a newbie, I didn't understand how to solve the error.
any help, please?

63.             movePlayer.y = fallVelocity;
64.         }
65.         else
66.         {

movePlayer

is a Vector3. The x component of a

playerInput

is a float, and C#/Unity does not know how to add them together.

Perhaps you just wanted set the x component of movePlayer?

movePlayer.x = playerInput.x;

for example.

 

Thank you so much!!! who would thought it will be that simple?
