Carrying an object

[misterjuly]

Hello,

How would I go about carrying an object? Could I just get the object to be attracted to my character? How would I go about doing this? Thanks!

Ok, I'll take a look at it. Thanks!

So, I looked at the video, and I'll admit, it is a bit complicated. Is there a simpler way to do it? Like, would it be possible to do something with the move towards action? I tried having the object move towards my player, but when the object get close to my player, it acts all weird. Is there something I'm overlooking? Is there a similar action that would work better? Thanks!

The Move To Holder state in the video use the Move Towards action to pick up the object. Normally you would use a child GameObject a little ahead of your character as the attach point. This avoids collisions with the player model.
