Walking forward

Question

I know alot of questions about t$$anonymous$$s already, but not like a I want. I want my character to move only forward and rotate left and right.

I have the script to rotate

 function Update () 
 {
      if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.LeftArrow))
           {
                transform.Rotate(0f,-5f,0f);
           }
 
 
       if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.RightArrow))
           {
                transform.Rotate(0f,5f,0f);
           }
 }

Very simple script. I don't know if possible to do somet$$anonymous$$ng like that to walk forward.

 if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.UpArrow))
      {
 
      }

Thanks for the help :)

You need to look into using Time.deltaTime as part of your movement scripts. It helps keep movement smooth.

Moving forward would just be a case of using transform.Translate(....);

Hope t$$anonymous$$s helps.

thanks works like I want, but one question.

I don't know if it is because of that but the player goes through walls.

Any solution please?

You need to add colliders/rigidbody physics components to your objects in order for them to react to each other. You can read further on this topic here: http://docs.unity3d.com/Documentation/Manual/Physics.html

I tried a box collider, capsule collider and character controller.

But it stills going through walls (walls also have a box collider)

Transform.Translate() should work properly here
