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 local space. Teleporting a Rigidbody from one position to another uses Rigidbody.position instead of MovePosition.

public class Example : MonoBehaviour
{
    Rigidbody m_Rigidbody;
    public float m_Speed = 5f;

    void Start()
    {
        //Fetch the Rigidbody from the GameObject with this script attached
        m_Rigidbody = GetComponent<Rigidbody>();
    }

    void FixedUpdate()
    {
        //Store user input as a movement vector
        Vector3 m_Input = new Vector3(Input.GetAxis("Horizontal"), 0, Input.GetAxis("Vertical"));

        //Apply the movement vector to the current position,
        //multiplied by time and speed for a smooth MovePosition
        m_Rigidbody.MovePosition(transform.position + m_Input * Time.deltaTime * m_Speed);
    }
