How can I slow Gravity

Question

I would like to slow the gravity on the Character Controller. How would I go about doing this? Would I need to have a rigidbody or can it be done through the CC?

by their nature, character controllers dont obey the game engine physics rules like rigidbodies do. character controllers move exactly where you tell them to go by script. I assume that if you already have a fall speed, you should add more code to change the fall speed every few seconds.

example:

timer = 0;

if(!isGrounded){

timer += 1 * Time.deltaTime;

if(timer < 2) move speed equals 5

if(timer > 2 && timer < 5) move speed equals 3, etc..

Now if your question is actually about affecting the game engine gravity itself( like for rigidbodies) you can decrease it by changing Physics.gravity = new gravity

Thanks for that!

It pretty much depends on your game's physics. if you have a rigidbody attached, do it with rigidbody. for example:

getComponent().AddForce(transform.up * someAmounts),

and if you want to set it on some amount just set the gravity itself.

or you can manipulate the transform.position.y in the same way;

Thanks, I've done it a little differently than this but thanks anyway!
