Controller not rotating unless moving

[Rick]

To Replicate:

 

 

1) Create Lua project

2) Create 'prefabs' folder in assets tab

3) Create a cube, set it's physics to character controller, save as prefab named 'player' (the issue isn't prefab related but this will work with the code below

 

4) Open App.lua and remove everything and copy the code below and paste it in

5) Run the game and notice that unless you are moving the rotation of the character controller doesn't work

 

 

 

--This function will be called once when the program starts

self.player:SetInput(self.cameraRotation.y, move, strafe)
end

--This is our main program loop and will be called continuously until the program ends
function App:Loop()

--If window has been closed, end the program
if self.window:Closed() or self.window:KeyDown(Key.Escape) then return false end

--Update the app timing

--Update the world

--Render the world

-- draw crosshairs

self.context:SetBlendMode(Blend.Solid)

--Refresh the screen
self.context:Sync()

--Returning true tells the main program to keep looping
return true
