Just wanted to say this is the best character controller tut that I've seen, and all the character controllers I've made since watching this have been based off of this.

Thanks a lot for this video. It's great! Here's my version of vertical hovering after following along. I researched a bit on spring-damp mechanics and was able to define the behavior using frequency and a damp factor rather than spring strength and damp strength. This way, you set dampFactor to 1 and it will reach equilibrium without over shooting. Set dampFactor to 0 to get a spring that (ideally) never loses energy. dampFrequency defines how fast it reacts. using UnityEngine; public class Hover : MonoBehaviour { public float dampFactor = 1; public float dampFrequency = 15; public float hoverHeight = 1.5f; public float maxDistance = 2; public float castRadius = .5f; public Rigidbody rb; RaycastHit[] hits = new RaycastHit[10]; private void Awake() { if (!rb) { Debug.LogError($"[{nameof(Hover)}] missing field RigidBody."); enabled = false; } } private void FixedUpdate() { ApplyHoverForce(); } void ApplyHoverForce() { if (GroundCast(out RaycastHit hit)) { Vector3 rayDirection = Vector3.down; float springDelta = GetSpringDelta(hit); float springStrength = SpringStrength(rb.mass, dampFrequency); float dampStrength = DampStrength(dampFactor, rb.mass, dampFrequency); float springSpeed = GetRelativeSpeedAlongDirection(rb, hit.rigidbody, rayDirection); Vector3 springForce = GetSpringForce( springDelta, springSpeed, springStrength, dampStrength, rayDirection); springForce -= Physics.gravity; rb.AddForce(springForce); if (hit.rigidbody) hit.rigidbody.AddForceAtPosition(-springForce, hit.point); } } bool GroundCast(out RaycastHit hit) { int hitCount = Physics.SphereCastNonAlloc( transform.position, castRadius, -transform.up, hits, maxDistance); if (hitCount > 0) { for (int i = 0; i < hitCount; i++) { RaycastHit current = hits[i]; if (current.rigidbody == rb) continue; hit = current; return true; } } hit = default; return false; } float GetSpringDelta(RaycastHit hit) { return hit.distance - (hoverHeight - castRadius); } static float GetRelativeSpeedAlongDirection( Rigidbody targetBody, Rigidbody frameBody, Vector3 direction) { Vector3 velocity = targetBody.velocity; Vector3 hitBodyVelocity = frameBody ? frameBody.velocity : default; float rayDirectionSpeed = Vector3.Dot(direction, velocity); float hitBodyRayDirectionSpeed = Vector3.Dot(direction, hitBodyVelocity); return rayDirectionSpeed - hitBodyRayDirectionSpeed; } static float SpringStrength(float mass, float frequency) { return frequency * frequency * mass; } static float DampStrength(float dampFactor, float mass, float frequency) { float criticalDampStrength = 2 * mass * frequency; return dampFactor * criticalDampStrength; } static Vector3 GetSpringForce( float springDelta, float springSpeed, float springStrength, float dampStrength, Vector3 direction) { float tension = springDelta * springStrength; float damp = springSpeed * dampStrength; float forceMagnitude = tension - damp; Vector3 force = direction * forceMagnitude; return force; } }

Thanks for your implementation of vertical hovering. I'm having some problems for movement on slopes. When I go up a slope, the character stays too close to the ground, and when I go down, it stays too high, causing the character to make small falls. My parameter values are: maxDistance = 1.5f hoverHeight = 1.2f dampFrequency = 15f dampFactor = 0.55f

Thanks for your tutorials! I implemented a first person controller with this approach and it feels great, can walk over any terrain including other rigid bodies, even moving platforms! When landing a jump it crouches slightly due to the spring which feels realistic and satisfying. Got your game on Switch, looking forward to play it with friends this weekend :)

Hey guys, thanks for this video! I just completed our first full playthrough with my family. We all love this game, so thank you so much for your hardwork! 🙏 In this breakdown, you get goalvel by multiplying the normalized relative input vector by the maxspeed and speedfactor. Can you briefly explain what speedfactor is and why you need it? To everyone else reading this, if you haven't purchased this game yet, I encourage you to do so! Let's support game devs who do great work and care about their craft!
@Sandiles

My guess is that speedFactor is just used so they can apply movement effects (slow down and speed up) based on game mechanics. So its not really important to the system as a whole.

Some things maybe a little over-complicated but considering this is a console game, everything had to be just right, console ppl are pretty strict I really liked how you made this (maybe you guys, this game and controller is way too good for one person) I also like making physics based systems since they basically handel everything themselves if you make it right, but everyone either mixes rb based movement with normal movement or just go with normal movement Earned a sub!

I got pretty much all of the controller stuff working except the jump force working. Because the character's on a spring and could be moving up or down at the time of the jump, I guess I need to do the "neededAccel" calculation to achieve a consistent starting jump velocity. And then also support the jump-hold to bring it up to a maximum velocity.

Hi! Great video and blog! I was looking at the Character Animation blog post and I'm really confused about the "use an animation curve that defined how to move between single frame poses." I get the idea that you're blending between the poses, but I'm not sure how you can apply the animation curve to a pose.

I don't really get the spring math. I wrote exactly what you have for the float mechanic and the capsule either plops to the ground, or starts bouncing infinitely high. What are the values you have set for the rigidbody weight, what are the values for the spring force and damper? they are just off screen and you don't explain how to play around with the values to get this right.
@ToyfulGames

looking at the project now, the player's rigid body is average human sized (~2 units tall), and the mass is 10. the Ride Spring Strength is 2000, Ride Spring Damper is 100. Upright (torque) spring strength is also 2000, damper on that one is 30. Ride height is 1, but the raycast length is 1.5 (so 0.5 buffer)
