Touch screen + moving left/ right

[ItzArranT]

Hey all,

I want to create a control setup wherein the screen (landscape) is "cut in half"- tapping on the left portion of the screen moves the character left and tapping on the right portion of the screen moves the character right.

I have got the "cut in half" part sorted, but I don't how to make the character move in the corresponding direction, any ideas? I'd like it if the character keeps moving in the corresponding direction so long as I keep my finger on the screen.

UPDATE: I've got this working using a Character Controller component but would prefer a solution involving a Rigid Body.

Hi,

 you'll need to use either complex vector math, or some custom actions doing this for you, like ScreenTo3dPlane action, wich lets you know the position in the 3d world on a specific plane ( ground likely), then you can control your rigidbody to move towards that point on the ground.

 Bye,

 Jean
