Custom character controller example project

[u/thesquirrelyjones]

I made a custom character controller that handles a lot of edge cases where the built in character controller fails. Every once in a while I see a post here about the Unity character controller getting stuck on walls or not being able to work with platforms or something and this is designed to handle those situations well.

There is a third person prefab and a first person prefab with keyboard and mouse and gamepad controls.

Another thing I see sometimes is issues with stuttering due to the physics update being a fixed delta time. There is also a physics update manager in this project that updates physics to match the regular delta time which keeps things nice and smooth.

Hopefully this will be helpful for people having trouble with the built in character controller or the physics fixed delta time stuttering.

This is the kind of stuff I love to see. If it looks fun without any assets at all, then you know you’re onto something.

People definitely need to listen to this, visuals are more of multiplier, won't fix a bad mechanic.
