2D Character Movement in Unity / 2023

[@justapersonontheinternet]

Thank you, I have been searching for a video on basic movement that doesent assume the person already has everything set up for ages. Keep upp the good work

[@AviyaleTales]

I was struggling with this watching other tutorials. This tutorial was perfectly summed up, clean, and well executed. Thank you so much for this!!!

[@nislaav6712]

Unity had a little update on their API, this current code didn't exactly worked for me but here's what I've found on the Unity's documentation and it might help someone else:
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
public class CharController : MonoBehaviour
{
public float _speed = 5f;
// Start is called before the first frame update
void Start()
{

}
// Update is called once per frame
void Update()
{
var _move = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal");
transform.position = transform.position + new Vector3(_move * _speed * Time.deltaTime, 0, 0);
}
}
The main change is in the -> "transform.position = transform.position + new Vector3(_move * _speed * Time.deltaTime, 0, 0);
Hope it helps someone :)

Note: if you want to make a level using Tilemaps I don't recommend using that code(For moving right and left) because it will really glitchy so you can use:
void Start()

}
void Update()
{
float horiz = Input.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal");
Rb.velocity = new Vector2(Speed * horiz, Rb.velocity.y);

This is an outstanding video. I would ***instantly*** buy any course that got straight to the point like this.

[@xDTHECHEMISTx]

Figured out the compiler issue. and you should tell people be aware that the "screw driver" icon to the left of the code is there for a reason. it kinda auto corrects coding for you. i was following videos trying to mirror those codes and for some reason the capitalization of certain text was an issue majorly. SO for those seeing confusing compiler issues MAKE SURE you use that screw driver because it will generate the proper text below what you tried code when it comes to capitalization and expression.

[@supernectar5022]

Hey I don’t agree with your jump system, in the same line you’re checking for a “Jump” input you’re also checking if the y component of our velocity is less than 0.001 (I guess you made this value small enough to kind of simulate when the player is standing) but there are actually 2 situations where our up velocity is close to 0:
-when we are standing still on a surface
-at the pick of our jump (when we’re about to fall back down)
This means that we can still jump infinitely if we press “Jump” just at the right time.
Please correct me if I’m wrong! Other than that I think the video is very good :)

[@DistortedPixelStudios]

You are 100% correct in your observation. This system was chosen deliberately because it is as simple as it gets. There various other ways of detecting when a character is grounded, but all of them are more complex than an absolute-beginner video requires. The same counts for almost all components :)

For everyone that is stuck at a wall for etc do this:
2D: If you are on 2D and uses Collider2D as collider then go into "Create > 2D > Physics material 2D" and set the Friction & Bounciness to 0 and on your Player colliders set the material to the physics material you just created.
3D: If you are on 3D and uses Collider as collider then go into "Create > Physics material" and set the Static & Dynamic to 0 (Or keep Dynamic to what it is idk) And on the colliders set the material to the physics material you just created.

2:14 there's an error on movement and I can't get it to go away. It says "The name "movement" does not exist in the current context"

I have the same problem

[@patatopeeler3005]

you can use "public Rigidbody2D = _rigidbody;" and in unity editor drag and drop rigidbody to script

[@schauerv]

Thank you so much for this!!!
For anyone wondering why their Visual Studio isn't adding autocompleting the Unity "words" it is because Visual Studio 19 doesn't come with Unity autocomplete, you have to select it. Instead go to tools ---> get tools and features ---> scroll to Game Dev with Unity ---> Modify. THEN in Unity go to edit ---> perferences ---> external tools ---> script editor ---> Visual Studio 19 :)
also here is the function
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
public class ADD YOUR FILE NAME HERE: MonoBehaviour
{
public float MovementSpeed = 1;
public float JumpForce = 1;
private Rigidbody2D _rigidbody;
private void Start()
{
_rigidbody = GetComponent();
}
private void Update()
{
var movement = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal");
transform.position += new Vector3(movement, 0, 0) * Time.deltaTime * MovementSpeed;

if (Input.GetButtonDown("Jump") && Mathf.Abs(_rigidbody.velocity.y) < 0.001f)
{
_rigidbody.AddForce(new Vector2(0, JumpForce), ForceMode2D.Impulse);
}
}
}
