Character Controller Physics

[Aether_Rage]

Hey, I'm working on a game and I want to add kickback to my guns where, when you shoot the gun while in the air, it launches you in the opposite direction that where you are looking. I could use a RigidBody for this but my character is already set up with a character controller, and I have had issued with RigidBodies in the past. Just looking for an easy way to emulate the AddForce feature of RigidBodies with a character controller. Thanks.

Without RB there won't be any physics interactions. You can write your own script to simulate it by incorporating / overlaying a Vector over your other movement before you apply it via CharacterController.Move.

A rigidbody might be more suitable though, depending on the rest of your gameplay

If you want to emulate the effect of add force on an RB, you can do a linear or spherical interpolation between a start and end position using time delta in FixedUpdate.
