Hello devs. I was wondering if there's a good trick to implement right and left strafe for a third person controller, instead of the usual rotation. |
||||
|
For this, it’s better to use a custom controller that allows movement in eight directions rather than the standard tank controls of CooperCube. Unfortunately, I can’t recommend anything specific since I haven’t used anything like this from the internet, but I’ve heard a lot about the controller from @SamMhmdy - I think it has what you need. |

Thank you for suggesting that controller, it's pretty darn good! But sadly, I still can't figure out how to create a strafe. I've tried changing the position of the character node by 'Vector' or 'Vector into facing direction' and had some very minimal success (very very minimal though). I'm definitely missing something, but I'm pretty lost at this phase x_x |

i havent tested but maybe changeing rotation speed to 0 (if its possible) first (when key a or d down) then move by vector.. so it wont try to rotate at same time when trying to do strate.. (doing rotation at same time cancels the desired effect of move my vector) ..even if it works it wont be best solution.. if i have time i upload script that does strate instead of rotation. |

@facept Do you mean strafe like in my modification of @SamMhmdy's Thirdperson Controller that I posted a while ago? https://ambiera.com/forum.php?t=... https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/7... |

@hadoken Your modification is almost perfect! That's the strafing I'm trying to implement haha Though I could see another challenge, making the strafe work while going along a diagonal direction. Did you use code or is it all tweaking from the default behaviour/action options? |
||||
|
@Facept my modification uses pure code from a heavily tweaked "behavior_smThirdpersonCameraController.js" script originally written by @SamMhmdy for camera/mouse looking plus another custom script of mine for movement and rotation of the player with strafe mechanics (with similarities to the FPS movement controller extension I provide with my CopperCube VR Setup on itch.io: https://hadoken-records.itch.io/...) |
||||
|
@Facept Can't you turn on the alwaysFaceCamDir option in @SmnMhmdy's ThirdPerson Controller to achieve the effect? |
||||

Thank you for suggesting Guest_guest, but sadly it didn't create a strafe mechanic. I think I'm going to stick with the normal tank control, and try to create retro styled (psx era) game. Something similar to Nightmare Creatures should be quite fun to do! |

I create a right and left control but it's simple. I use on a car game I made. I use the script called do something every ms. |
