public function SimpleMove(speed: Vector3): bool;
public bool SimpleMove(Vector3 speed);
public def SimpleMove(speed as Vector3) as bool

Description

Moves the character with speed.

Velocity along the y-axis is ignored. Speed is in meters/s. Gravity is automatically applied. Returns if the character is grounded. It is recommended that you make only one call to Move or SimpleMove per frame.

	var speed : float = 3.0;
	var rotateSpeed : float = 3.0;

function Update () { var controller : CharacterController = GetComponent(CharacterController);

// Rotate around y - axis transform.Rotate(0, Input.GetAxis ("Horizontal") * rotateSpeed, 0); // Move forward / backward var forward : Vector3 = transform.TransformDirection(Vector3.forward); var curSpeed : float = speed * Input.GetAxis ("Vertical"); controller.SimpleMove(forward * curSpeed); }
