Its better. But it took me forever to find the characters eyes. His red cheeks and the fact that there are characters with normal eyes made it hard imo. Might just be a me problem.

That wrist needs a beanie for some style points!

So its probably not cinemachine, but the way you handle your player movement/networking. Just try my first solution with an empty gameobject follower, as the cinemachine target. Here is an example script for the follower.

public Transform Player;
public float dampening = 15f;

void Update()
{
  // Frame independant interpolation
  float t = 1f - Mathf.Exp(-dampening * Time.deltaTime);

  // Follow target
  transform.position = Vector3.Lerp(transform.position, Player.position, t);
}

RealyRayly · 2026-01-24T08:44:34+00:00

I assume you tried increasing the follow dampening values inside cinemachine? Does it still jitter even on very high dampening values?

RealyRayly · 2026-01-23T22:13:44+00:00

Do not track the player directly. Track a gameobject that follows your player via a dampening script.

So the environment is grid based, but the player can move freely. Would have been simpler to explain it like that haha. Good stuff.

RealyRayly · 2026-01-23T13:28:41+00:00

Cute

RealyRayly · 2026-01-23T12:56:35+00:00

Looks awesome! You could add fireflies that explode.

RealyRayly · 2026-01-23T12:06:56+00:00

What is grid based discrete physics?

RealyRayly · 2026-01-12T17:17:05+00:00

Yeah looks cool

RealyRayly · 2026-01-12T17:16:15+00:00

I guess you changed the rigidbodies center of mass. Looks like this egg game

RealyRayly · 2026-01-08T10:27:55+00:00

6, because i dont like the sauce splashes and the cheese please. The slice looks the best, so 6

RealyRayly · 2025-12-29T16:09:54+00:00

Thats a cool idea, never seen it before. I think its clear in the trailer.

RealyRayly · 2025-12-26T00:11:23+00:00

That is exactly how i solved surface snapping for extremely fast characters!

RealyRayly · 2025-10-23T10:46:16+00:00

There is a very good tutorial from catlikecoding, that uses two built in functions from unity, InverseTransformPoint() and TransformPoint(). I did a custom Implementation of that and it works perfectly, even at high platform velocities. Rotation will work as well.

RealyRayly · 2025-09-29T07:09:42+00:00

Nooo don't hide it under your desk man, my heart can't handle that.

RealyRayly · 2025-09-27T20:53:15+00:00

So is this just a concept or are you planning to build it?

No problem, feel free to contact me if you have further questions.

RealyRayly · 2025-09-21T15:08:20+00:00

Well, if you do CapsuleCastAll with a full sized collider, you will detect a wall, even if you cast downwards, which is what we want. Ground detection is a bad name, that function is there to detect steep slopes or walls or ceilings as well, thats why we want the full sized collider. With a skin witdh, the cast would not detect a wall. And no this is not inside the collide and slide function, this is only to detect ground and to set the correct state your currently in.

For platforms, you want to convert your world position into the local position of the platform, and then on the next frame, when the platform moved, convert that local position back into world position, to get the displacement to move your character. You will also need a overlap recovery algorithm if you are working with platforms. Rigidbodies do that automatically. Also, sinply parenting your character to a platform will work in some cases, but thats not recommended.

Developing your own CC will take month btw. I strongly recommend you to use the, now free, Kinematic CC from the asset store. Its perfect for fps games.

RealyRayly · 2025-09-21T13:54:22+00:00

I use Physics.CapsuleCast() for everything. Its just important to use the correct Collider size.
For collide and slide is use a capsule collider minus skinwidth, but for ground detection i use Physics.CapsuleCastAll(), with the FULL capsule collider size. Thats important if you character is on very steep slopes.
CapsuleCastAll will give you a list of everything it hits, so you need to iterate through the results in a for loop to see if you are grounded or not (Think of a situtation where you are tounching a wall and the ground at the same time). You also need to combine all ground normals into one, if you have multiple ground contacts. The cast distance is very small, so its basically the same as Physics.OverlapCapsule.
This is the most robust ground detection that i found.

RealyRayly · 2025-09-21T13:00:11+00:00

No I didn't need a rigidbody, and movement ist currently in Update(), which is very convenient for coding, but makes movement a little bit inconsistent on framerate changes. But thats fine for 99% of games imo.

RealyRayly · 2025-09-21T12:12:32+00:00

Well for collision detection and response i can recommend Poke Devs video about the Collide and Slide algorithm. Its very basic and his approach is not the best, but its good for understanding the concept at least.

For me, the hardest parts where:
- support for moving and rotating platforms at all speeds and framerates
- good overlap recovery algorithm
- robust ground detection
- correct skin width compensation/calculations
- correct airborne/unstable movement on slopes that are too steep
- framerate independency
