As badunius pointed out, a capsule shape is better for collision because it is a simpler shape. When you're creating a collision shape make sure to use that. This has been updated on github. Also make sure to turn on collisions for any CSG boxes you add or you will fall through the floor.

If anyone is having issues and falling through the floor you might need to go into the CSGBox and turn on "Use Collision" in the Inspector panel on the right hand side. You might also need to setup Collision Layers and Collision Masks, this is also in the Inspector Panel. On the CSGBox turn on Collision Layer 2 and Collision Mask 1. For your CharacterBody3D turn on Collision Layer 1 and Collision Mask 2.

One of the best First Person tutorials I've ever found for Godot. A LOT of other videos seem to throw out the sample code for far more complex code that just dose the same basic stuff in a different way. I like how you just build off it instead, and provided us with a simple, yet highly configurable base. I also learned a few tricks I can apply in my 2.5D character controller since it also uses the same sample code. From here, I'll be looking to add in a raycast system in order to see what the player is looking at and maybe a menu system, which I now know how to do thanks to people like you!

i just multiplied it by the process delta time ._.

One thing I noticed is that there was a blurr on the edges of ojects when rotating the camera, this is because the rotation is calculated on the physics layer intbeween frames when it should be calculated on the frame layer _process().

this was pretty entertaining to watch, although i have a pretty silly question, your Rs are giving a W sound, is that normal? I'm curious

Thanks bro, are the best :D

One thing that's easy to miss cause the effect is subtle but if you have no velocity you don't reset t_bob value so your camera could be shifted ever so slightly from the bob when not moving anymore.

Really great video! Small question though, any chance you can make a follow-up video showing how to handle a controller for motion? I mean, the direction is pretty straight forward as it is a simple mapping of the (in my case) left joystick to the created action (not to mention the jump and sprint buttons) but the camera adjustments are kind of tricky as the game listens to mouse move events (as an input) and for the joystick, it feels like the modification should happen in the _process or _physics_process code rather than from the event itself.

@DonGeorgesTheThird

7 ай бұрын

Right, after a tiny bit of fiddling, I found it out. Sharing cause it might be useful for someone. The first thing I did was to export the 3 lines handling the rotation in the _unhandled_input function to a dedicated function _handle_rotation taking x, y and sensitivity as parameters. I make sure to pass the final values of x and y (i.e. -event.relative.x). I pass the sensitivity as I want to have a different sensitivity for mouse move and joystick. So I created the input for the right joystick (look_up, look_down, look_left, look_right) and in the _physics_process, I get the values the same way I get them for the movement (Input.get_vector). If the return value is not Vector2.ZERO, I call the _handle_rotation function. Done.

Super helpful.

for crouching, just scale down the collision on vertical axis and lower the camera position. also you should do a line trace when uncrouching to make sure your character has the space to stand up for sliding do the same stuff but also stop using the player input for movement/velocity but instead store the forward direction when the slide is first activated and use it for the movement, then decelerate to taste until equal to crouched walkspeed then start using normal crouching behaviour. also make a state machine for movement. i.e. make an enum for movement states like walking/crouched/sliding. then use a switch/match statement to set the velocity in the way each of those states requires

nice , thank you

great tutorial! my character moves well now, I just wanted to ask, is their a way to tune the headbob so that you can match it up with footstep sound? I have added footstep sounds to the game but the headbob doens't happen at the same speed and it looks unnatural, I need a way to increase/decrease the freq of the sin wave

Just thought I'd put it here, if anyone is using a ColorRect on the camera and not getting any mouse input, go to the ColorRect and mess with the mouse settings in the Inspector. It's typically on Stop

thx my dude =)

Hey, if anyone is having issues with not being able to move, make sure 'move_and_slide()' is in 'func _physics_process(delta):'

(PS: You still have to make the collision shape a child of the Player.) (PPS: It will come at the cost of your collision not being too accurate so this line of code should fix that: "var.rotate_y(-event.relative.x * SENSITIVITY)" You can visualize the collision moving by making a csg box a child of it)

That’s cool. How do you change it to third person perspective?

I don't know if I did something wrong or what, but when i did the FOV part from the video, I felt something was off when trying it in the game. When jumping, the script seems to take the speed of the jump momentum and that causes the fov to change, making a strange wave of the fov, going up, down and up, which I didn't like at all. So trying things for like an hour or 2 (with the absolutely little I know about Godot, this is the first video I've seen of Godot, which is very good) I changed this part of the script: var velocity_clamped = clamp(velocity.length() - velocity.y, 0.5, SPRINT_SPEED * 2) It seems that by subtracting velocity.z from velocity.length(), the wave disappears and not only that, but now the fall feels much more powerful the higher you are (but it seems to have a limit), it's quite good. I hope it helps someone, and if I'm wrong about anything, please let me know.

This fixes issues with movement not being updated to your forward direction, or if you have a custom player model the shadow will be off. Also, if you see that your jumping is really snappy and not smooth, just make a new function in your script, like this: func _process(delta): // Your movement here and then copy and paste ALL of your code from the _physics_process to your _process. Makes it so much better :> You can also make a new onready variable at the top called friction. In that same line, set the friction to your speed variable divided by 6 (6 looked good during personal testing). It should look like this: @onready var friction = SPEED / 6 now, in the part where mr tutorial man here updated the smoothing code to just be set to 0, as it didnt work, put the smoothing code back in and replace the SPEED variable in those with friction. Now, you have silky smooth jumping and movement.

Good video, but as a very beginner to godot ive had to put the video on 50% speed and keep needing to pause and rewind to catch what you're doing without getting instantly lost.

4:48 the camera ends up spinning on the z axis, i think ive done everything right. Saw someone with a similar problem in the comments but theirs was because of the way they did their node, mine are the same as yours tho.

if anyone is having errors blah blah: extends CharacterBody3D var speed const WALK_SPEED = 6.5 const SPRINT_SPEED = 8.0 const JUMP_VELOCITY = 6 const SENSITIVITY = 0.005 const BOB_FREQ = 2.0 const BOB_AMP = 0.09 var t_bob = 0.0 # Get the gravity from the project settings to be synced with RigidBody nodes. var gravity = 9.8 @onready var head = $Head @onready var camera = $Head/Camera3D func _ready(): Input.set_mouse_mode(Input.MOUSE_MODE_CAPTURED) func _unhandled_input(event): if event is InputEventMouseMotion: head.rotate_y(-event.relative.x * SENSITIVITY) camera.rotate_x(-event.relative.y * SENSITIVITY) camera.rotation.x = clamp(camera.rotation.x, deg_to_rad(-40), deg_to_rad(60)) func _physics_process(delta): # Add the gravity. if not is_on_floor(): velocity.y -= gravity * delta # Handle jump. if Input.is_action_just_pressed("jump") and is_on_floor(): velocity.y = JUMP_VELOCITY # Handle Sprint if Input.is_action_pressed("sprint"): speed = SPRINT_SPEED else: speed = WALK_SPEED # Get the input direction and handle the movement/deceleration. # As good practice, you should replace UI actions with custom gameplay actions. var input_dir = Input.get_vector("left", "right", "up", "down") var direction = (head.transform.basis * Vector3(input_dir.x, 0, input_dir.y)).normalized() if is_on_floor(): if direction: velocity.x = direction.x * speed velocity.z = direction.z * speed else: velocity.x = 0.0 velocity.z = 0.0 else: velocity.x = lerp(velocity.x, direction.x * speed, delta * 2.0) velocity.z = lerp(velocity.z, direction.z * speed, delta * 2.0) t_bob += delta * velocity.length() * float(is_on_floor()) camera.transform.origin = _headbob(t_bob) move_and_slide() func _headbob(time) -> Vector3: var pos = Vector3.ZERO pos.y = sin(time * BOB_FREQ) * BOB_AMP pos.x = cos(time * BOB_FREQ / 2) * BOB_AMP return pos

When you say "from scratch" you should mean "without adding template scripts". i wanna learn how to code it myself so i can know how to move a character in different ways in other projects.

I added a dash ability into this template but I have a problem with the inertia. Dashing creates a Vector3 that gradually decreases to zero. The dash vector is then added to the velocity vector and this works well on when on the floor (since I haven't added inertia when on the floor). However when dashing in the air the player velocity gets super fast. Any tips on how to fix this? Here's how I tried to make it work: velocity.x = lerp(velocity.x, direction.x * SPEED, delta * 2.0) + dash_vel.x EDIT: I got rid of the dash vector and just added the dash amout to the velocity and added an if statement for lerping the velocity if it's higher than the const SPEED and now it works

Thank you for this tutorial! I am planning on making an infinite tower climber with this. For some reason, when I pressed the w key I went backwards, and the s key made me go forward. I switched which one was in the input for up and down, and that seemed to fix it. Do you know why it may have happened?

Thank you friend! :) It sounds like the camera might be facing the wrong way?

@@legiongames2400 Thanks, that seemed to fix it. I am now subscribed.

Do you know how I could add crouching, and make it lower the position of the camera? I tried, doing what I thought could possibly work, but it didn't.

when i start the game, my camera falls to de ground and it like im an ant walking

You had probably put the "camera3d" node in the top, you just need to put the "head" node instead, because it's the head node being at the position 0,0 that is actually making you have that problem (I hope you understand what I'm saying, I do not write that much at english, only my code is in english)
