Ok, so you have the pikmin moving correctly on the X axis, right?

It isn’t all that different to have it moving on the Y axis too.

that’s the thing I don’t know how to do that

The pikmin is moving correctly on the x axis. How does he move on the X axis?

With X-Velocity.

So how would you make him move on the Y axis?

Also, I saw a few reycasters in the code. If you want this pikmin object to move on the Y axis, you’ll probably have to change those too.

If you want, I can get the code for you, then you can just import it. -But it’s better if you try to learn this sort of this yourself, so try it: Switch the Raycasters and the speed inputs to the Y axis.

I have been summoned. I am making a Pikmin Fangame that has a whistle and let’s the Pikmin follow you.

The link is in this forum. I hope it helps.

hello? you there man

Sorry was at the dentist, the way I made the pikmin move was by making one object which was invisible and then the pikmin which was attached to the one object which would be the pikmin’s “hitbox”. The “hitbox” would point at the captain forever and move forward with the speed of 2 (I think) when whistled.

Maybe I should make an example for this.
