Air Control adjustable?

[fabian]

Hey there, 

I was wondering if it was possible to have adjustable air control instead of a just a on/off toggle. This could for example allow the player to jump and adjust his direction slightly mid air, but not spinning around 20 times before landing, like it is when air control is enabled.

Has anyone an idea about this?

Hi fabian,

you can take a look in vThirdPersonMotor.cs and around the line 470.
You can duplicate the if statement

if(isGrounded || (!isGrounded && humpAirControl){
// invector rotation code
}
and assign one as

if(isGrounded){
// invector rotation code
}
and the secon one as

if(!isGrounded && jumpAirControl){
// invector rotation code
}
In this way you can add different speed for each condition.
For example you can add in the transform.rotation= ...:

freeSpeed.rotationSpeed*0.1f
to reduce by 10 time the speed of the rotation when jumping.
It is just a quick hack ... i think that Invector at some point could add an option like "airRotationSpeed" to handle this behaviour!

More compact and less ugly version:
replace line 475 with:

float dirRotationSpeed=isGrounded ? freeSpeed.rotationSpeed : airRotationSpeed;
transform.rotation = Quaternion.Lerp(transform.rotation, Quaternion.Euler(euler), dirRotationSpeed * Time.deltaTime);
and after line 71 add:

[vHideInInspector("jumpAirControl")]
[Tooltip("Air control rotation speed")]
public float airRotationSpeed = 5f;
Now in the Jump Table you can set the Air rotation speed.
Let me know.

Thank you, that was exactly what I wanted!
I think it would be cool if this was a standard feature with the asset, so maybe the Invector guys can consider?
