5. Knockback Effect--Just Add Enemies! (Unity Tutorial) 

only guide that isn't 30 minutes and worked, underrated af, subscribed hope you do great

This tutorial is just what I needed, and the fact that you responded to basically every comment is awesome too

Awesome guide. Easy to follow, and unlike most of the other knockback tutorials, easy to slot this one into an existing bit of script. Thank you for the tutorial :)

Awesome guide I really appreciate how easy to follow this was. One change I made was instead of having the object causing the knock back always having hold of your movement script I just added a knock back function inside the player script which would set the KBcount=KBtotal and could be triggered from the object on collision and return if the other object didn't have the tag of player.

thank you very much for this tutorial, so clear!

Thanks man, great tutorial!

Thanks dude it's working perfectly.

This tutorial series has been absolutely great so far! I do have a slight issue though, the script seems to work, but when I'm testing it, the game can't decide whether or not he's getting hit from the right or the left. It will set KnockFromRight to true no matter what side I'm hit on.

Clear and work fine. Thank you.

So you make the player check to hit the enemy from the right or left through the script in the enemy. Can you do the same thing in the script player? because if I have a lot of enemies I have to drag & drop the player reference to the inspector because it won't be saved in the enemy prefab

Hi Tutorial worked great thak you so much! However when it bounces from the enemy it goes towards the correct direction but it shoots up. Any suggestion or tips? Thank you!!

Is there a way for the player to smoothly move on the x when they are hit instead of just stopping as if they hit a wall?

Very helpful, but I ran into a small problem. It works for enemies but the effect is not the same when colliding with projectiles or moving objects. Player still takes damage but the knockback effect is not working. What should I do?

hello! uh so like, when the player touches the character, they VERY SLOWLY bounce off, but then literally force themselves to glue to the enemy and i barely can control the player, how can i fix it?

Hi! I have a question that somebody might be able to help. I followed the instructions you give in this video, but for some reason, when the enemy touches the player, instead of the player going backwards it is going upwards and because of that, it kills the enemy. What should I do? Thanks in advance

hello, I am having an issue where my KnockBackCounter goes down to something like 0.15 and it doesnt go to 0 ): any ideas why?

some time the damage happens multiple time i have two colliders idid what you .collider rather than .game objects it didnt work the 2 colliders are in the same game objects which is the player both are in the parent any help?

Hello, great video! For some reason, when my player collides with the enemy the player is only knocked straight up. I have tried multiple solutions like setting the vector 2 x to rb.velocity = new Vector2(kbForce * 1000, 0.2f * kbForce); to try and giving the x more power but the result is the same. Would you have any idea why?

i doubt that you will see this but, i am having issues, the knockback doesnt actually work, i have 2 colliders, a box and a circle one on my enemies, it doesnt seem like there are any issues with the script and i am not getting any errors but my character doesnt get knocked back. EDIT: nvm got it working, turns out i put the counter to 0.2 instead of the Total time, my bad whoops. cool guide, works great now, thanks

Hey I followed this video and the knockback works but Im using a movement script that has wall jumping in it and whenever I wall jump it now does the knockback thing instead of doing the wall jump. Wondering if you could help me. Thanks

When I put in "playermovement" into the enemy damage script, it says their is an error. I spell it correctly but it doesn't work. What should I do?

I have followed this tutorial but I am just getting a knockback straight up instead of actually getting a knockback. Would it be possible to get some help with this issue?

Okay the damage went well! I am here now haha Is there an easy way to apply this to all 4 directions and not just left and right? Thanks!

How can I make it work for a Top Down game?

Hi, @ 3:35 where you add 0.2 and the player gets pushed back, mine pushes my player up. Not back

why my KBcounter on my player script always go down until it minus?

Hey i´ve got a little problem with the knockback. First of I use a completely different movement script. The knockback is working with it but the problem is that my character gets hit twice. Can you help?

RESPECT

where is the script for the player movement? also great job on these tutorials.

I do with You Everything Please i need the Script plzzz

I am Back haha I created some code that works when the player hits the enemy and the enemy gets knocked back. I am trying to add knockback on the character so when he get hits, he get's knocked back. I went in and switch the tag to "Player" But it is not working. It seemed like an easy script to make fore the enemies. Any ideas why it might not be working? Here is the code [SerializeField] private float thrust; private void OnCollisionEnter2D(Collision2D collision) { if (collision.collider.gameObject.CompareTag("Player")) { Rigidbody2D character = collision.gameObject.GetComponent(); if (character != null) { StartCoroutine(KnockCoroutine(character)); } } } private IEnumerator KnockCoroutine(Rigidbody2D character) { Vector2 forceDirection = character.transform.position - transform.position; Vector2 force = forceDirection.normalized * thrust; character.velocity = force; yield return new WaitForSeconds(.3f); character.velocity = new Vector2(); }
