📘Player Prefab

​

Structure

The FPSPlayer prefab is a game-ready entity, that you can drag and drop to the existing level. It consists of 2 parts:

• SK_Arms_Mono (Character model).
• Camera

​

Character

Player prefab relies on these components: Let’s break down each component’s settings and purpose.

​

Animator

It’s responsible for applying all animations: reloads, fire, grenade throw, movement, and others. AC_FPS_Character is the main character controller. It is used as a source for all override controllers in the package. Because it is a part of the animation system, it will be covered later in the Character section.

​

Player Input

This is a component from Unity’s New Input System package. You can find the input map here: The package comes with these gameplay actions:

1. Reload (R).
2. Fire (LMB).
3. Aim (RMB).
4. Change Weapon (F).
5. Throw Grenade (G).
6. Move (WASD).
7. Sprint (Left Shift).
8. Tactical Sprint (Left Shift + X).
9. Change Fire Mode (B).
10. Mouse Wheel (instant weapon swapping).

FPS Player

This component is responsible for weapon management and procedural animation:

• Player Settings: contains character-related properties.
• Skeleton Root: the model root bone.
• Weapon Bone: the weapon bone, all weapons are parented to it.
