Basic 3D Character Controller for Godot

Features

A simple 3D third person character controller, with a fully functional (but independent) third person camera.

A simple state machine that manages animations, running, and rolling.

Customisable settings in the editor:

- move speed            # How fast the player moves
- run speed             # How fast the player runs
- roll speed            # How fast the player rolls
- jump velocity         # How high the player jumps
- turn scalar           # How fast the player turns
- turn immediate        # Multiplier for the player's turn.
- accelerate immediate  # Multiplier for the player's acceleration.
- decelerate immediate  # Multiplier for the player's deceleration.
- variable jump         # Multiplier for the player's jump input.

To use the camera, simply drag the camera.tscn into your scene and use the set_following function.

For example, inside the player's _ready event, you could call:

%Camera.set_following(self)

To alter the camera's third person properties such as distance from player and offset, change its Spring Arm.

Check out player.gd and camera.gd to view the fully documented code.

• This project, as with all FriendlyCosmonaut projects, was not created using AI. I am fundamentally opposed to AI's usage; it is a detestable parasite draining our environment and humanity.
