Right now, I'm freezing the player by making his Rigidbody go to sleep at the start and wake up at the end of a conversation with Dialogue System events.

The problem is, when he starts a conversation in the middle of a jump he is frozen in the air and it looks weird (because his animation state goes to idle also). But if I don't freeze his Rigidbody, he slides to Narnia.

Is there a way to keep his gravity falling to the ground but still keep him from moving/sliding during dialogue?

Thank you

Hi,

You can add a script like this to the player:

StopCharacterVelocity.cs Then configure Dialogue System Events to call StopCharacterVelocity.Stop:


You can also modify the script to do the same thing without having to set up Dialogue System Events:

StopCharacterVelocity.cs
If you're making a 2D game, use Rigidbody2D instead of Rigidbody, and use Vector2.zero instead of Vector3.zero.

StopCharacterVelocity.cs

Code: Select all

using UnityEngine;

public class StopCharacterVelocity : MonoBehaviour
{
    public void Stop()
    {
        var rb = GetComponent<Rigidbody>();
        if (rb != null)
        {
            rb.velocity = rb.angularVelocity = Vector3.zero;
        }
    }
}

Then configure Dialogue System Events to call StopCharacterVelocity.Stop:
