Rigidbody.MovePosition

Parameters

Description

Moves the kinematic Rigidbody towards position.

Rigidbody.MovePosition moves a Rigidbody and complies with the interpolation settings. When Rigidbody interpolation is enabled, Rigidbody.MovePosition creates a smooth transition between frames. Unity moves a Rigidbody in each FixedUpdate call. The position occurs in world space. To teleport a Rigidbody from one position to another, use Rigidbody.position instead of MovePosition.

public class Example : MonoBehaviour
{
    private Rigidbody rb;
    private float moveSpeed = 5f;

    [Header("Input Actions")]
    public InputActionReference moveAction;

    private void OnEnable()
    {
        moveAction.action.Enable();
    }

    private void OnDisable()
    {
        moveAction.action.Disable();
    }
    
    void Awake()
    {
        //Fetch the Rigidbody from the GameObject with this script attached
        rb = GetComponent<Rigidbody>();
    }

    void FixedUpdate()
    {
        //Store user input as a movement vector
        Vector3 m_Input = new Vector3(moveAction.action.ReadValue<Vector2>().x, 0, moveAction.action.ReadValue<Vector2>().y);

        //Apply the movement vector to the current position, which is
        //multiplied by deltaTime and speed for a smooth MovePosition
        rb.MovePosition(transform.position + m_Input * Time.fixedDeltaTime * moveSpeed);
    }
