BornCG | Godot 4 3D Platformer Lesson #13: Align Player with Ground! @BornCG | Uploaded August 2024 | Updated October 2024, 14 hours ago.
In this lesson I'll show you how to improve the movement of our game's player, by making it always align with the ground it's walking on. This involves a few lines of code we'll separate into its own custom function with some 'BIG' 3D transformation mathematical concepts, but let's take it step by step!
