How to make your character move?

This is my first time making video games and I decided to use unity because mainly it was free. I am learning about terrain but my main problem is how to make the character your using move and how to make the camera follow him/her. Can someone help me out and explain it very simply because like I said this is my first time?

var MoveSpeed : int = 0.5;

function Update () {

if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.UpArrow)){

transform.Translate(Vector3,MoveSpeed,0,0);

}

}

I couldn’t test it as i’m using my phone.
This is just a simple way of moving your object if you change “Translate” into Rotate you can well rotate your object.

i’m new myself :stuck_out_tongue:

I would reccomend http://www.unity3dstudent.com/ site since your new and is a great place to start.

This should work for you.
this is a
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class Movement : MonoBehaviour {

public int movementspeed = 100;

// Use this for initialization
void Start () {

}

// Update is called once per frame
void Update () {
	if (Input.GetKey (KeyCode.A)) {
		transform.Translate (Vector3.left * movementspeed * Time.deltaTime); 
	}

	if(Input.GetKey (KeyCode.D)) {
		transform.Translate (Vector3. right *   movementspeed * Time.deltaTime);
	}
}

}

You can also use this for moving an object.

float movSpeed = 7f;

void Update {
transform.Translate (new Vector3 (Input.GetAxis("Horizontal")*movSpeed*Time.deltaTime), 0, Input.GetAxis("Vertical")*movSpeed*Time.deltaTime));

}

Youtube can become a good friend to you learning Unity - there are lots of tutorials :wink: a quick search brought up this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=od78RhlLXUI&feature=related

there are much more and maybe some better - watch a couple of them will point you the right direction.

you can find tutorials everywhere on the web most are really simple, quick and nice to get familiar with Unity :wink: Ask google.

I appreciate it!. I really like it when people get together and share ideas. Great website, continue the good work!. Either way, great web and I look forward to seeing it grow over time. Thank you so much.
