Basic Quake-Like FPS Controller

A lightweight, Unity-based first-person controller inspired by the classic Quake movement system. Built with C# and Unity's Rigidbody physics, this project aims to replicate the snappy, skill-expressive feel of retro arena shooters.

• Responsive ground movement (WASD)
• Quake-style air control — change direction mid-air
• Friction system for smooth deceleration
• Jump with configurable force
• Ground detection via overlap check
• Modular and easy to extend
• Works with Unity Input System

1. Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/fixin0/BasicQuakeLikeFPSController.git

2. Open in Unity:

   • Launch Unity Hub
   • Click Open and select the cloned folder

3. Configure the Player GameObject:

   • Add a Rigidbody component:
     • Interpolation: Interpolate
     • Collision Detection: Continuous Dynamic
     • Freeze Rotation: X, Y, Z
   • Add a Capsule Collider
   • Add an empty child object and assign it as groundChecker
   • Add a Camera as a child of the Player (for the view)

4. Attach the script:

   • Add PlayerController.cs to your Player GameObject
   • Wire up the groundChecker transform and camera reference in the Inspector

5. Input System:

   • Make sure the Input System package is installed via Package Manager
   • The project uses a GeneralInput action map with:
     • Movement → Vector2
     • Jump → Button
