Player body not rotate when head rotate

Hi and Happy New Year to my fellow developers,

I having problem with player rotation, I'm using google cardboard sdk for my main camera and attach to my custom player. When ever my player looking left or right, the body not rotate together with the head and if I try to move forward, the player will move in world coordinate instead of local coordinate of the player. Is like no matter where I'm looking, i move at same one direction. How do I fix that?

This is my player controller script.

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. public class FPController : MonoBehaviour {
3.     public float speed = 5.0f;
4.  
5.     // Use this for initialization
6.     void Start () {
7.        
8.     }
9.    
10.     // Update is called once per frame
11.     void Update () {
12.        
13.         float moveForward = Input.GetAxis("Vertical") * speed;
14.         float moveSide = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal") * speed;
15.  
16.         Vector3 moveSpeed = new Vector3(moveSide, 0f, moveForward);
17.  
18.         CharacterController cc = GetComponent<CharacterController>();
19.  
20.         cc.SimpleMove(moveSpeed);
21.     }
22. }
23.  

 

Don't you want the player to always move in the direction that the camera is facing & not the direction the capsule is facing? If so the capsule needs to rotate when the player is looking side to side, sort of like if you had no neck the only way you can turn to see something is to rotate your whole body.

 

Actually the one that you suggest is that I want. Right now the way my player move forward depend on capsule is facing not the camera is facing. I want they move forward depend on camera facing.

I'm sorry my english is so bad that hard to you guys to understand.

 

Your English is fine, I just wanted to make sure I knew what you asked.

The way I'd do it is child the camera to the capsule so the axis of both line up & are the same so that forward on the camera is forward on the capsule etc. Use the horizontal-axis to change the rotation around the Y-axis & use the vertical-axis to move the character by vector3.forward*speed.

This may not be the best way though.

 

Geez thanks! I finally made it. Thanks alot with your advise.
