No Gravity Jump

Hi,

I'm trying to make a script so that the player jumps where the camera is facing, like he is jumping in a no gravity environement. I tried to use transform.foward but the problem is I don't want for the player to change the jump direction while he is jumping so that he can look around while jumping to a straight direction.

Any ideas?

 

If you only want the player to be able to change direction when they are on the ground do a check for isGrounded. If they are grounded they can turn, if they have jumped they won't be grounded so won't be able to turn.

 

Thats what i would do so basically use the OnCollisionEnter() and OnCollisionExit() functions

EDIT: And also there is the OnCollisionStay() function that can help you as well.

 

It's a good idea. But I would like it if the player was able to look around in the air but keeps the same direction.

 

When using OnCollisionEnter(), I can jump again through the wall (which is bad) and when using OnCollision Stay(), I'm stuck in the wall.

 

FIXED : I used an Impulse force:

Code (CSharp):

1.         if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Space) && IsGrounded == true)
2.         {
3.             IsGrounded = false;
4.  
5.             GetComponent<Rigidbody>().AddForce(transform.forward * 10, ForceMode.Impulse);
6.         }
