I have decided to work on implementing 3D gravity into my project, while I further research the rotation\/ship control feature.<\/p>\n

Currently, gravity is applied only along the y axis, however, the player needs to be able to walk around the surface of a planet, an asteroid, a ship, etc, so I need to modify my existing character controller to allow it to work in three dimensions.<\/p>\n

The problem is that the Unity character controller from the standard assets doesn’t allow 3D rotation, so I may need to use the one from the Space Exploration Engine itself, which uses a rigidbody component.<\/p>\n

I have, however, made extensive changes to my character controller, which will need to be ported over to the new character controller, which could take some time.<\/p>\n

I have verified that the SEE character controller works, but I am still working on modifying my existing character controller. I may be able to remove the standard character controller component and add a rigid body system in its place, without changing any of the other code.<\/p>\n
