Wanderlust

Wanderlust is a character controller addon. Inspired by this excellent video and my previous attempts at creating a character controller, it is implemented on top of Rapier physics and highly customizable.

Wanderlust does not handle mouselook, as it's more-or-less trivial to implement compared to movement, and would add significant complexity to build in as many projects will have vastly different requirements for mouselook. The first_person.rs example includes an example mouselook implementation.

To use Wanderlust, simply add the WanderlustPlugin to your App, and create an entity with the CharacterControllerBundle.

Planned Features

• Wallrunning
• Be more agnostic to up-vectors
• More examples
  • 2D
  • Mario-Galaxy-style planetoids
  • Moving platforms
• Fix various jitter issues

Potential Features

• Become agnostic to physics backend?
• Dashing?
• Ledge grappling?
• Input rework?
• More bundles for different common configurations?

Contributions

Wanderlust is intended to cover nearly every possible use case of a character controller, so if your use case is not supported (or there's a feature you would like to see) please drop an issue on the repository! PRs are also welcome, but I may not accept all PRs. Open an issue first if you're not certain that I would accept.

Examples

The first_person.rs example which shows a simple character controller setup. The starship.rs example which shows a simple spaceship controller setup.
