Change Running Speed On HUD GameObject Click

[projectsolid]

I want to increase the players running speed value under the Third Person Controller script when the player clicks a HUD button. Could you give me a starting point on how this can be achieved? I have no problem creating and positioning the button but where should the script be placed?

Thank you

You can use: docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/UI.Button-onClick.html

You will have to create a boolean to alternate between the speeds each time you press the button.



For example, we use this to alternate between running and walking:




using System.Collections;

using System.Collections.Generic;

using UnityEngine;



namespace Invector.vCharacterController

{

public class WalkRunToggle : vMonoBehaviour {



public vThirdPersonMotor Player;

public bool ToggleWR = false;



// Use this for initialization

void Start () {

}



// Update is called once per frame



void Update()

{

if (Input.GetKeyDown (KeyCode.CapsLock))

{

ToggleWR = !ToggleWR;

}

if (ToggleWR == true) {

Player.freeSpeed.walkByDefault = true;

Player.strafeSpeed.walkByDefault = true;

}

else if  (ToggleWR == false)

{

Player.freeSpeed.walkByDefault = false;

Player.strafeSpeed.walkByDefault = false;

}

}

}

}The values you want to modify are at the end of vThirdPersonMotor.cs
Surely there are simpler ways, anyway.

Thanks for the feedback. My goal is to have a speed boost ability on a cool down. So when the player hits the button it increases run speed for X amount of time.
