Unity Plane Programming

Project repository for the Unity Junior Programmer Pathway: Challenge 1 - Plane Programming

I will need to utilize the skill I have learned in my driving simulation prototype to fly a plane around arial obstacles. I will need:

• User input for: Up & down = Plane's pitch up and down
• Make the camera follow alongside the plane

Bugs to fix:

1. The plane is going backward Resolution: Change Vector3.back -> Vector3.forward in transform.Translate parameters from script PlayerControllerX.cs in method FixedUpdate()

2. The plane is going too fast Resolution: Include Time.deltaTime in transform.Translate calculation from script PlayerControllerX.cs in method FixedUpdate()

3. The plane is tilting automatically Resolution: Include verticalInput variable in transform.Rotate calculation from script PlayerControllerX.cs in method FixedUpdate() Also, in RigidBody Contraints, freeze the X rotation

4. The camera is in front of the plane Resolution: Find the camera position, where the camera is beside the plane Apply a rotation to the camera -90 degrees in the Y

5. The camera is not following the plane Resolution: Select the MainCamera. Then in the inspector, assign the Player as the Plane variable from script FollowPlayerX. Set the camera offset in the FollowPlayerX script.

6. Bonus: The plane's propeller does not spin Resolution: Create a new script (Rotation.cs) to handle rotation. Handle rotation in a LateUpdate() event. Create two serialized private variables rotObj and rotationSpeed. Variables being Transform and float respectively. Apply the following Rotation to rotObj: Vector3.forward, rotationSpeed * Time.deltaTime Since rotationSpeed is serialized, set the rotation speed in the inspector. Add Rotation.cs to the Propeller game object. Assign Propeller to the serialized rotObj.

7. Plane slowly clips through walls Resolution: Adjust value from 10 -> 100 in project settings
