Rigidbody keeps sliding

its not there

 

Set the isKinematic property of the rigidbody of the GameObject that's acting as the surface to true; that worked like a charm for me

 

I was having the same issue, I was stuck for hours. Hope this helps:

I have a Player with child FocalPoint to rotate.
FocalPoint about and it's child is the Maincamera.

My Player kept sliding even after removing the PlayerController, RotateCamera scripts.

Turns out the Focal Point had a box collider which was somehow causing it to slide and drag around even in mid air.

 

I know this is an old thread, but in my case it was the Collider offset. If it's something other than 0,0 it will cause the object to move on a flat surface.

 

This article will solve this problem, check this out

Here is the solution

1. Go to your player's rigid body > increase the Drag number
2. Go to your player's rigid body > Constraints > Freeze Rotation on XYZ and Freeze Position on Y

 

So, I recently came up with this issue myself and no amount of freezing rotations, physics settings and all of the above could fix my rigidbodies to sliiiightly sliding away, veeeery slowly.

I've had enough of this so I just made a script to fix it.
This script lets you define a minimum allowed velocity for your rigidbody and, if it moves slower than that, it will force the rigidbody to stay in place.
The script will not interfere will regular movements and will not mess with your rigidbody's acceleration or deceleration.

This is intended for cases when the rigidbody is mainly stable, but it keeps drifting away very slowly over time.
It's clear to me that if your object is moving at a rate of 0.5 or 1 millimeter per second, it's drifting away.

Save this as FixRigidbodySliding.cs and put this script in the rigidbody you want to stop drifting away. Done.

Code (CSharp):

1. using System.Collections;
2. using System.Collections.Generic;
3. using UnityEngine;
4.  
5. public class FixRigidbodySliding : MonoBehaviour
6. {
7.     [Tooltip("A velocity per axis smaller than this will be considered unwanted sliding and fixed.")]
8.     [Min(0.0005f)] public float minimumVelocityAllowed = 0.001f;
9.  
10.  
11.     new Rigidbody rigidbody;
12.     Vector3 lastPosition = Vector3.zero;
13.  
14.     void OnEnable()
15.     {
16.         rigidbody = GetComponent<Rigidbody>();
17.         if (rigidbody == null) { this.enabled = false; return; }
18.         lastPosition = rigidbody.position;
19.     }
20.  
21.     void FixedUpdate()
22.     {
23.         var delta = rigidbody.position - lastPosition;
24.         var minDeltaPos = minimumVelocityAllowed * Time.fixedDeltaTime * 10f;
25.  
26.         // avoid issues when teleporting object:
27.         if (Mathf.Abs(delta.x) > minDeltaPos || Mathf.Abs(delta.y) > minDeltaPos || Mathf.Abs(delta.z) > minDeltaPos)
28.         {
29.             lastPosition = rigidbody.position;
30.             return;
31.         }
32.  
33.         var vel = rigidbody.velocity;
34.         var rbp = rigidbody.position;
35.         var posx = rbp.x;
36.         var posy = rbp.y;
37.         var posz = rbp.z;
38.         if (Mathf.Abs(vel.x) < minimumVelocityAllowed) posx = lastPosition.x;
39.         if (Mathf.Abs(vel.y) < minimumVelocityAllowed) posy = lastPosition.y;
40.         if (Mathf.Abs(vel.z) < minimumVelocityAllowed) posz = lastPosition.z;
41.         rigidbody.position = new Vector3(posx, posy, posz);
42.  
43.         lastPosition = rigidbody.position;
44.     }
45.  
46. }
47.  

I hope this is useful to others.

 

Volumes can also cause this to happen. Check all your objects with box colliders on them.
Rigidbodies inside Colliders will cause them to gain force to get out of the collider

 

wow, all these years and we still have the sliding colliders. I thought this would be fixed by now.

 

I was making a reach tool added to my FPScontrollers camera which mass was default at 1 , same with my FPScontrollers mass within rigidbody, once i put my FPScontrollers mass at 80 and kept the reach tool at 1 it stopped the sliding.

 

what do you mean by reach tool? I didn't understand what you did or how it can help us. Can you attach a screenshot?
